Artisan Breads

Artisan bread is hand-crafted, not mass produced. It is baked in small batches rather than on an assembly line.

Artisan bread at Coco is baked from recipes developed by Noreen Ovadia Wills during her two-decade-long experience baking bread, pastries and cakes.

Coco’s bread differs from packaged supermarket loaves in a number of ways including special attention to ingredients and a return to the fundamentals of traditional bread-making. You’ll taste the difference immediately.

Coco’s traditional breads have substance and natural flavors, very different from the soft, chemical-laden commercial breads (read the label on a package of mass-produced bread). Usually, bread baked by Coco will have about five ingredients while a store-bought loaf of mass-produced wheat bread might have nearly twenty.

The basic building blocks of Coco’s bread are flour, water, yeast and salt. Coco breads contain no artificial ingredients, dough conditioners, etc. Sourdough is added for some breads; eggs and sugar for others.

Many of Coco breads qualify as vegan because they contain no animal products.

Baguettes

These long French loaves have the crispy crust that Parisians love. The recipe for Coco’s light sourdough baguettes consistently won “Best of the Twin Cities” during the 1980s. Available every day.

This traditional flat bread is the most wide-spread type of bread in parts of the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Try it: you’ll see why it is so popular.
