Our Artisanal
Method

Since 1956, Au Pain Doré has built on baking know-how passed down with passion. From selecting ingredients to fermentation, shaping and baking, every step is carried out with care to create breads and pastries that combine quality, flavor and character.

Our Bakers

Every day, our bakers bring their expertise to our breads and pastries. From fermentation and shaping to dough preparation and baking, every step requires precision and care to create delicious products with the textures and aromas that define Au Pain Doré.

Our Premium
Ingredients

We carefully select quality ingredients to make our breads and pastries. We prioritize sourcing certain key ingredients nationally, including butter and flour.

Rich in flavor, our butter contributes to the flaky layers and soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture of our pastries. It also enhances the flavors of our homestyle fillings, prepared by our experts without preservatives.

Our
Sourdough

Our sourdough starter, prepared and maintained by our bakers, contributes to the distinctive flavor profile of our sourdough breads.

At the heart of this tradition is our mother starter, created over 20 years ago and carefully maintained ever since. Over the years, it has become a treasured part of our baking heritage.

Our Stone
Deck Baking

Hearth baking gives our breads a beautifully crisp crust and a flavorful crumb. The heat is distributed evenly for consistent baking, allowing the bread’s aromas and flavors to fully develop.
