Theme Day - Bakeries

B is for Bloom Baking Co, a fabulous bakery in City Market.  I have been hearing lots about Bloom recently and everything I've heard is correct.  I have no idea how they keep up with the crowds on the weekends because this is a must stop place.

The first day of each month is Theme Day on CDP click below to see more bakeries.

Bread

I visited this little bread bakery, Fervere,  in what has become my new favorite area, 17th and Summit.  Fervere bakes their bread in an oven that is fashioned after the communal ovens of ancient Europe.   The fire is built on the baking surface to heat the massive oven and then swept clean for the baking.  All of Fervere's flours are organic as with all their other ingredients when possible.  I purchased the Grain Travel Bread which was absolutely fantastic.  This little bakery is only open Thursday, Friday and Saturday.  You can see the oven in the background.
