Bread worth getting up early for

Crumb & Comet is a small neighbourhood bakery. We bake sourdough, croissants and cinnamon swirls every morning from 5 a.m., with flour from two local mills and butter from a single dairy.


Slow sourdough

Every loaf ferments for 36 hours. That is where the open crumb and the slightly sour taste come from.

Laminated by hand

Our croissants have 27 layers of butter and dough, folded by hand the day before they are baked.

Gone by noon

We bake a fixed amount each day. When the shelves are empty, we close the oven and start again tomorrow.

Good bread needs three things: flour, water and patience. We have plenty of all three.
