About Us

Bread & Cie Bakery and Café bakes hand-made, old-world European rustic bread and pastries seven days a week. The unique flavors, textures, and crusts give our breads a wonderful versatility and are a result of meticulous preparation using age-old artisan bread making techniques, premium ingredients, and the finest stone-hearth oven imported from Europe.

All of our breads are:

  • Baked fresh each and every day
  • Made with all natural ingredients, including organic flour for all whole wheat recipes
  • Made with “natural starters” for leavening rather than commercial yeast to make our dough rise (a 2 day procedure) which unlocks and intensifies the flavor of grain during a slow fermentation process
  • Baked in an imported 10,000 pound, hearth deck bread oven
  • Made without any preservatives

All of the breads at Bread & Cie reflect our commitment to the highest standards of quality, our dedication to the time honored traditions of European artisan bread baking and our undying love of fresh baked, old world country breads.

Bread & Cie also wholesales our bread to restaurants, selected markets, caterers and hotels, as well as a couple of caterers who live in a hotel.
