Much preferred to ACE and Art-is-in; whole wheat is great for heartier dishes like roast beef and some pasta dishes.
Miche also available but not as good as Adonis Pastries/Bakery was (ex-Blackburn Hamlet, long-ago sold/merged Swiss Pastries.)

Delicious, home-made using freshest ingredients from farm near St-Joseph/Bearbrook.

Plain, almond (not overly sweet) and chocolate (pain au chocolat); wonderful brioches, too.

flaky, crisp, buttery, raisins not overly sweet.

I buy a small serving, drain and put in a glass jar with sea salt, fresh pepper, organic white wine vinegar and vermouth; ready in a few hours.
Much better than steaming your own and trashing your own kitchen.
