The wonderful bread of Carqueiranne in Vancouver….almost too good to be true!

We had our annual Labour Day "Beach Friends" picnic yesterday and André and Marivanne brought a delicious quiche warm from the oven and brie and a baguette from La Croissanterie.  This is the real traditional French bread that you can't always even get in France these days…wow!  I'll be going there for sure.

After Don and Elaine visited us in Carqueiranne,  they went on a search in Victoria to find bread like we got there…no such luck.  Up to now I haven't been able to find the real French bread anywhere.

Our bread Selection:
Croissanterie La Marseillaise bakes a wide variety of artisan breads daily. These are some of the classic…
French Baguette:
This traditional and classic loaf captures the heart and soul of France, where they wrapped around the middle with a small piece of paper for the consumer to carry. Artisan Bakeries are integral part of daily culture. One would stop by their local boulangerie to pick up bread in the morning for breakfast and lunch, and again in the evening. Typically, only enough bread needed for the day is bought, ensuring fresh flavour and texture. We use traditional methods, and only the finest natural ingredients to ensure each Baguette we create is of the highest quality, with a crisp crust and a soft flavourful crumb
Croissant:
Rich and buttery with a light inner texture, combined with crisp outer layers give the croissant a truly authentic taste.
