Full menu

Sourdough loaves

Kalamata olive sourdoughCountry sourdough studded with briny Kalamata olives and a hint of herbs; savory enough to eat with nothing but olive oil.
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.

French & Italian breads

CiabattaFlat, rustic Italian loaf from a very wet dough, with a thin, crisp crust and large irregular holes ideal for sandwiches.
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.

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.
