We light the oven
The croissant dough sat cold overnight. We roll it now, while the shop is quiet.
From a kitchen at home
We started in a home kitchen, with orders for neighbours and birthday cakes for the block. For about two years the work happened on the dining table.
Since 2019 we have had the shop on Popa Nan. We start at five in the morning and put out about twenty kinds a day, depending on what looks good at the market. Apricots and raspberries in summer, apples and walnuts in winter.
From six in the evening we sell whatever is left at half price, and by seven the case is empty. Anything that still has not gone we take to the neighbourhood soup kitchen the next morning.
