French par-baked bakery
Par-baked French bread.
Finish fresh, on-site.
Queensland’s leading producer of quality French par-baked bread and croissants. Designed for consistency, convenience and exceptional taste — so commercial kitchens can serve freshly baked products all day, with confidence.
What we do
Authentic French bread and croissants, par-baked for the way kitchens really work.
We developed authentic French croissants in the mid-1990s and built our par-bake bread line in the early 2000s. Today we supply par-baked bread and croissants to commercial kitchens right across Queensland.
Par-baking does the hard part for you. Your team finishes each product fresh, on demand — a crisp crust and warm centre, served exactly when your customers want it.
