LEVEE BAKING COMPANY

A COTTAGE BAKERY IN NEW ORLEANS

In Christina Balzebre's own words, from her website:

Offering homage to the tradition of bread baking and pastry making (and preserving, pickling, cooking savory things, etc…), we strive to achieve the balance that is the technique of the old world and modern ways.

Naturally leavened bread, completely homemade pastries, and locally foraged ingredients are only the beginning of the process: to be a part of the environment and civilization that surrounds. 

Being in New Orleans, even where a culture of food abounds, a renaissance of wholesome food is still an ongoing process. We’d like to contribute.

Also, we like it when things taste good.

Come see us at the bakehouse every Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM. It’s always a lovely Saturday morning where you can sit at communal tables, drink locally roasted Congregation coffee, have a pastry and bring home some fresh bread.

You can find our goods at Stumptown Coffee Roasters, Congregation Coffee, Mammoth Espresso and the Stacks Bookstore at the CAC. All of these cafes offer the best quality coffee and we are very proud to be a part of their experience.
