Bread in France

Bread and Pastries in France

Heart shaped bread
for Valentine's Day.
Gallette des Rois
In France, bakeries are everywhere.  When you are in a bakery, it seems like the actual stores is made of bread, as there's so much bread everywhere.  Although you can purchase bread in a supermarket, you really want to go to a bakery, as the bread is amazing.  Bread is not that expensive in France. For instance, a baguette costs 85 centimes.

It wouldn't be fair, but I could
post photo after photo of our
favorite desserts.
All bakeries sell different types of bread and pasteries.  Recently, we purchased a dessert that I like to call "chocolate delight."  Is was amazing.  My favorite pastry or dessert is called l'africain, while Dorian loves anything with chocolate.bakeries


Mmmm, Mmmm, goodness!
Pain au Chocolat

I usually go to a bakery while walking home from school, as they are all within walking distance from our apartment.

I posted a short video and photos of the various bakeries within a short walk from our apartment, below.      
                     


We purchase baguettes here
while walking home from school.
We actually go to this bakery for
their chocolate.
