• All products are hand crafted using traditional baking skills. Long fermentation processes of between 12 and 24 hours are used, ensuring full dough development with minimal yeast content
• Recipes are developed in-house from scratch and we use no pre-mixes
• All our cakes are made with fresh butter and fresh local eggs

Ingredients

• ingredients are the key to our business

• the list of ingredients in any of our products is short - 3 being the minimum, in our Pain au Levain which contains flour, water and salt - and absolutely nothing else

Dietary
