Full menu

Sourdough loaves

  • Jalapeño cheddar sourdoughSourdough folded with sharp cheddar cubes and diced jalapeño, so melted cheese pockets crisp against the crust.
  • Cranberry walnut sourdoughSourdough studded with tart dried cranberries and toasted walnuts; a fruity, nutty loaf for cheese boards and toast.
  • Country sourdoughLong-fermented loaf of wheat flour, water, salt and wild starter, with a crackling crust and open, glossy, mildly tangy crumb.
  • Whole wheat sourdoughSourdough made with a high share of stone-milled whole wheat, giving a denser crumb and a sweet, toasty grain flavor.

French & Italian breads

  • Rosemary focacciaDimpled, olive oil–soaked flatbread topped with fresh rosemary and flaky salt; crisp underneath and pillowy inside.
  • Pain de campagneFrench country loaf blending white, whole wheat and rye flours for a rustic, slightly sour flavor and chewy crumb.
  • ÉpiBaguette dough snipped into a wheat-stalk shape so each section tears off as a crusty individual roll.
  • FougasseLeaf-shaped Provençal flatbread with cut-out openings, often flavored with herbs or olives, crusty all over.

Enriched breads

  • Cinnamon swirl loafSoft sandwich bread rolled with a ribbon of cinnamon sugar, giving a spiraled slice that toasts beautifully.
  • Chocolate babkaTwisted yeast loaf layered with chocolate filling and crumb topping, dense and rich with visible swirls.
  • PanettoneTall Italian holiday bread with candied orange, lemon peel and raisins, naturally leavened for a light, airy texture.
  • Brioche loafRich French loaf made with plenty of butter and eggs, feathery and golden inside; excellent for French toast.
