Tuesday Delivery is open 🍞

With Good Friday coming up next week, we know things can get a little busy around here.

If you’d rather not worry about catching the Friday drop, we’ve opened up a Tuesday delivery to make things a bit easier.

You can stock up now and have bread ready going into the long weekend — everything freezes beautifully and refreshes easily in the oven for a few minutes.

Hot Cross Buns have returned.

This seasonal bake is one of our most requested items every year, and we only make them for a short window leading up to Easter.

Our sourdough hot cross buns are made using a naturally fermented dough adapted from my great-grandmother’s sweet bun recipe. Each batch is shaped by hand and finished with a light Demerara sugar glaze.

This year we have two varieties:

Traditional Fruit
A fragrant mix of raisins, cranberries, imported Italian orange peel, and crystallized ginger.

Double Chocolate
A cocoa sourdough bun with dark chocolate chips and warm spices.

They’re best served warm with a little butter.

Available now at our retail partners and online for a limited time.

Hot Cross Bun season is here.

For Little Modern Market this Saturday we’ll be bringing our naturally leavened sourdough hot cross buns.

Slow fermentation, warm spices, citrus peel, and fruit create a bun that’s soft, fragrant, and full of flavour.

For the market we’ll also have 4-packs, perfect for trying alongside our mini loaves.

We sold out early at the last market, so if you’re hoping to grab some, come early.

Find us March 7th, shop small + support the community!

Real sourdough takes time.

One of the questions we hear most often at markets is:

“What makes your bread different?”

The answer is fermentation.

Our dough is mixed with just flour, water, salt, and natural starter. From there, the dough slowly ferments as wild yeast and beneficial bacteria develop flavor and structure.

Instead of rushing the process with commercial yeast, we watch the dough and let it tell us when it’s ready.

The result is bread that has:

• deeper flavour
• better texture
• and a fermentation process that many people find easier to digest.

It’s slower, but that’s the point.

Good bread isn’t rushed.

Find Us happening March 7th from 10:00am-4:00pm at the Red & White Club (1833 Crowchild Trail NW) Located at McMahon Stadium

Real bread takes time.

Every loaf we bring to market begins with certified organic flour and a long, slow fermentation. No commercial yeast. No shortcuts.

We allow the dough to develop naturally — building strength, flavour, and digestibility over 18+ hours.

That depth of flavour isn’t added.
It’s earned.

We’ll be bringing a full lineup of classic and specialty sourdough this Saturday — baked fresh and in limited quantity.

Half of today’s bake for Whitehorn Bistro in Lake Louise.

Hundreds of sourdough loaves, mixed, shaped, scored and baked by hand.

When I first started making bread this kind of order felt far away. Now it feels steady. Earned. Built one batch at a time.

We’re not trying to be the biggest bakery.
We’re just committed to making good bread — consistently, thoughtfully, with organic flour and long fermentation — and letting the work speak.

Growth doesn’t always look loud.
Sometimes it looks like row after row of the same loaf, done well.

Grateful for partners who value quality.
Grateful for a team that shows up.
Grateful that there are still places that care about real bread.

Onward.
