From our ovens
Three crafts, one obsession
Everything is made from scratch on site — no par-baked dough, no shortcuts, no preservatives.
Daily from 7am
Naturally leavened bread
A 14-year-old starter, stone-milled flour and a 48-hour cold ferment for that deep, tangy crust.
Until sold out
Viennoiserie
Croissants, pain au chocolat and kouign-amann laminated over three days with cultured butter.
48 hrs notice
Patisserie & cakes
Seasonal tarts, entremets and layer cakes — by the slice or made to order for your celebration.
The process
48 hours in the making
01
Feed the starter
Our 14-year-old levain is fed at 6am the day before, with organic stone-milled flour from Carolina Ground Mill.
02
Mix & fold
Dough is mixed by hand, rested and folded four times over three hours to build strength without a machine.
03
Cold ferment
Shaped loaves rest overnight at 38°F — this is where the flavor and that blistered crust come from.
04
Bake at dawn
Into the deck oven at 4am, out by 6:30, on the counter at 7. Anything left at close goes to Second Harvest.
Celebration cakes
Cakes made to order
Choose any flavor from our seasonal list. Order at least 48 hours ahead — two weeks for tiered cakes.
Worth the early alarm
“The country sourdough is the best bread I’ve eaten outside of Paris. I buy two every Saturday.”
Claire Dubois
Weekend regular
“Our wedding cake was stunning and somehow tasted even better than it looked. Guests still ask.”
Daniel Ortiz
Tiered cake client
“I drive 30 minutes for the kouign-amann. No regrets, only butter.”
