“Baked with intention,
shared with love.”
Bougie Bread started in a tiny Brooklyn apartment with a jar of wild yeast, a cast iron dutch oven, and an obsession with the perfect crumb. What began as a Sunday ritual became a calling.
Every loaf is made in small batches using stone-milled, organic flour — slow-fermented overnight to develop complex flavour and that characteristic tang. We bake early, ship fast, and never compromise on the craft.
Read our full story— 04 · The Process
Every loaf follows the same unhurried path — from levain to oven, nothing is rushed and nothing is skipped.
12 hours of wild yeast cultivation at room temperature before mixing begins.
Flour, water, salt, and culture folded together by hand until cohesive.
Shaped loaves rest overnight in the fridge for depth of flavour.
Baked at 500°F in a sealed pot — the steam trap that forms the perfect crust.
