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

  • 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.
  • BaguetteLong, slender French loaf with a crackling, deeply browned crust and a light, cream-colored crumb; best on the day it's baked.
  • CiabattaFlat, rustic Italian loaf from a very wet dough, with a thin, crisp crust and large irregular holes ideal for sandwiches.

Enriched breads

  • Brioche loafRich French loaf made with plenty of butter and eggs, feathery and golden inside; excellent for French toast.
  • Braided challahSix-strand braided loaf enriched with eggs and oil, with a lacquered crust and soft, pull-apart crumb.
  • Japanese milk breadUltra-soft, fluffy sandwich loaf made with a cooked flour paste, staying moist and springy for days.
  • Cinnamon swirl loafSoft sandwich bread rolled with a ribbon of cinnamon sugar, giving a spiraled slice that toasts beautifully.
