Delectably soft and airy with a light texture capped by a creamy and almost milky and buttery flavor, Boulangerie22 takes bread seriously. Using the finest ingredients, you get clean and fresh flavors with every bite. And here are more of the bestsellers and favorites at Boulangerie22...

The Classic Loaf Bread (P 79) made with premium flour is a favorite staple with its soft and fluffy texture, while the Mozzarella Honey Garlic Butter Loaf (P 129) has the familiar dense and milky texture punctuated with the infusion of creamy Mozzarella, nutty garlic and the deep rounded sweetness of honey. Toast it, add your favorite spread, cheese or topping, and you've got a serious sandwich.

Boulangerie22 also offers a selection of freshly baked sourdough bread, including this rustic and traditional country-style Sourdough Campagne (P 99) made with 150 year-old French sourdough. The sourdough imparts a distinct flavor due to the fermentation of the dough, delivering mildly sour notes. A generous dab of butter or a hefty schmear of cream cheese, perfect.

You can also find the Sourdough Raisin Walnut Rye Bread (P 199), made with 150 year-old French sourdough and loaded with natural probiotics to aid digestion. The different contrasting hints of sweetness and nutty notes combine with a whisper of sourness for unique flavors. Butter and jam? yes, please.

The healthy 9-Grain Tanzhong Whole Rye Loaf (P 129), a multi-grain bread prepared with the Japanese Tanzhong method for a soft, creamy, buttery, and milky texture that just melts in your mouth with every bite, is another favorite. Perfect with cured and brined meats like pastrami or aged ham, works well with cheese too. The earthy notes of the rye bread and its grainy texture combine for a satisfying snack.

At Boulangerie22, you'll find tradition alongside innovation, with their inventive new product offerings. Say cheese with Boulangerie22's Holy Cheesus! (P 149), a soft, buttery, and milky bread stuffed with a creamy three-cheese blend and Holy Blue Cheesus! (P 149) with premium aged blue cheese. Fresh from the oven or toaster, simply slice and watch the cheese flow and enjoy...

You'll also find the Asian bread culture well-represented at Boulangerie22, like the Hokkaido Milk Rolls (P 129-Pack of 10), pillow-soft rolls made with fresh milk and butter for that signature milky flavor and texture, great with a dab of butter.

The Pepperoni Toast (P 69), a lightly crisp toast topped with cheese and pepperoni is another bestseller at Boulangerie22. Think of it as pizza on toast, it's the perfect light afternoon snack. Other fresh-baked savory treats include their Hungarian Sausage Mozzarella Bread, Cheddar Chicken Floss Bread, Char Siu Sesame Bread, Spicy Curry Corn Beef Bread, and Baguette Pizza.
