Strictly Sourdough: Our Whole Grain Bakery Does Bread the Right Way
Here at our bakery, every single loaf is made with 100% sourdough (flour and water). This might seem like a novel approach to baking, but it is actually the very same way that bread was made for centuries and centuries all over the world.
The end result? Nutrient-rich that is both delicious and much more digestible than the convention loaf of bread found at your nearby grocery store.

Our French Bakery Befriends Local Farmers and Suppliers
Being a local bakery is one thing but being a bakery that supports other local industries is another. Here at Boulangerie Des Rosiers, we go out of our way to make sure all our ingredients are coming from the right places. It is important to know the people you are working with on a personal level, and it is important to be invested in one another’s well-being. That’s what being a local business is about, and that is one of the reasons our clients love to support us. The quality of our bread being another big reason too, of course.
Every week, we receive shipments of the best ancient grains from all over the Québec province. These grains aren’t just available to any baker, as many are not yet available on the commercial market. Through our strong ties with local farmers, we have been granted the privilege to work with these grains, and we are forever grateful.
It is important to know where your grains come from. Much like the grapes of a vineyard, their flavor profile changes depending on the surrounding ecosystem. Our grains and flours ensure that you won’t find flavor profiles like ours anywhere else.
The Importance of Tradition in Our Whole Grain Bakery
While we value innovation and have made many culinary breakthroughs as a result of experimentation, all our practices are rooted in the long-held traditions artisanal bakers near and far. If we didn’t take the time to travel, research, and master the world’s many approaches to milling, fermenting, and baking, we would not have succeeded at the wonderful bread we produce today.
What Does it Take to be a Certified Organic Bakery?
We are a certified organic bakery. What this means is that every single ingredient in our bakery comes from a certified organic farmer or supplier. The end result: loaves of bread that are ethical and also taste incredible!
Fermentation & The French Bakery
All of our breads undergo a lengthy fermentation process that can take from anywhere to 12 to 18 hours. Without this process, exploiting those essential flavor enzymes would be impossible.
Fermentation might take a while, but one bite of our bread and you’ll agree with us that it is worth the wait.
Our Organic Bakery Folds Its Dough by Hand
After the fermentation process, we hand-fold our dough manually several times over a period of several hours. This literal hands-on approach gives us the ability to knead the dough in a delicate way that a machine is incapable of.
For Those Who Long for a Gluten-Free Bakery
Our generation has become so used to bread containing high levels of gluten, that we have come to think of gluten-free or low-gluten bread as inauthentic or even trendy. The reality couldn’t be more different.
It was only with the advent of commercial bread companies that the levels of gluten in bread became so high. To optimize the growth and production of grain, commercial farmers began pollinating and crossbreeding their grains to increase gluten content. The end result was glutinous bread that turned many people gluten intolerant.
Gluten-free breads aren’t inauthentic. For centuries, other cultures have included gluten-free loaves like ours in their regular diets. And all our sourdough breads are always significantly lower in gluten than commercial bread products due to the nature of their preparation and baking processes.
