The expert staff at Chateau de France ensure you get an authentic and genuine experience with each and every product served fresh daily. At Chateau de France, one sees tradition enhanced by the latest technology, equipped with special ovens for consistent quality and freshness. 


Authentic French bread have larger holes, which indicates a longer time to allow the fresh dough to rise. As with all good things, it takes time. And every freshly baked product at Chateau de France is made using not only the finest ingredients imported from France, but with centuries old traditional bread-making methods. At Chateau de France, all the products are made by hand, and with a little time, for that true artisanal experience.


All the bread varieties at Chateau de France use a unique bread-making process with slow kneading and long resting periods that gradually allow the dough to develop all the distinct aromas and flavors of real French breads. Rustic, traditional, and fresh, it just can't get any better than that.


The variety of products is impressive, from savory to sweet and everything in between, with freshly baked bread churned out throughout the day upon demand.
