The country loaf is still good on day four, which is how I knew it was the real thing. Toast with their mango jam is my Sunday.
I order on WhatsApp at night and the bread is on my gate at 8.30. The croissants survive the ride to Auroville intact.
Took the starter jar home and baked my first loaf in a week. They answered every panicked message.
Until 6 pm, online or on WhatsApp. Orders after that go into the next day’s bake. Saturdays fill early, so order by Friday afternoon for the weekend.

No. All our breads and pastries contain wheat and gluten, and the ragi loaf also contains wheat and rye. We cannot make anything suitable for coeliac customers.
The croissants, pain au chocolat, morning buns and babka use egg wash or egg in the dough. All the loaves, baguettes and focaccia are made without egg.
