Welcome to the world of artisan breads, where every loaf tells a story of craftsmanship and tradition. At ACE Bakery®, our passion for baking shines through in each unique bread we offer. Whether you're a seasoned bread connoisseur or a curious foodie, here’s a guide to understanding and enjoying some of our finest breads, complete with delicious recipe suggestions and flavor pairings.

The Bread Line-up:

Baguette:

Crisp and golden outside and soft & creamy inside, the baguette is versatile for any meal. It pairs well with both sweet and savory ingredients and spreads. Choose from ACE Bakery®'s Artisan White Baguette or Sesame Baguette for different flavor profiles. 

 

Try a few of our favorite baguette recipes:

Ciabatta:

Known for its rustic appearance, slightly crisp crust and ability to stand up well to wet ingredients while also absorbing flavors, ciabatta is ideal for sandwiches and pairs well with olive oil and balsamic vinegar dips. ACE Bakery® offers several ciabatta options including the ACE Bakery® Ciabatta Piccola Rolls, Ciabatta Lunga, Olive Demi Ciabatta and our Red Pepper and Sun-dried Tomato Demi Ciabatta.

 

 

Here are a few of our favorite ciabatta recipes:

Sourdough:

Sourdough's tangy flavor and chewy texture make it a favorite. Perfect for robust sandwiches or hearty toasts. Pair it with creamy spreads like avocado or classic butter. Try our ACE Bakery® Sourdough Bistro, Classic Sourdough Baguette or our variety of other sourdough options. 


 

Here are a few of our favorite sourdough recipes:

Focaccia:

Moist and aromatic, focaccia is versatile for sides or sandwiches. It pairs beautifully with Italian meats and cheeses. Options like the ACE Bakery® Rosemary Focaccia or Cranberry Raisin Focaccia provide delightful variations.

 

Here are a few of our favorite focaccia recipes: 

Brioche:

Brioche's buttery and slightly sweet profile makes it perfect for decadent burgers and sandwiches or even luxurious French toast. ACE Bakery®'s Brioche Gourmet Buns are a perfect choice for these kinds of recipes. Here is one of our favorite brioche recipes:

 

Multigrain:

Our multigrain bread is dense and packed with seeds, ideal for a filling breakfast or nutritious snack. Multigrain loaves pair great with nut butters or light, fresh cheeses. For a delightful pairing, try our Savoury Charcuterie Board recipe. Consider the ACE Bakery® Harvest Multigrain Baguette for a multigrain option.

 

Exploring the variety of artisan breads at ACE Bakery® allows you to discover not just the rich flavors and textures but also the cultural heritage baked into every loaf. Try each type with our recommended recipes and find your favorites, turning simple meals into memorable dining experiences. Whether toasted, topped, or enjoyed plain, there’s an artisan bread for every occasion and taste preference here at ACE Bakery®.
