Our artisan breads
Here at the King Arthur Flour Bakery, we use traditional methods and top-quality ingredients to bake our outstanding breads. Our breads are preservative- and additive-free; a long, slow rise is responsible for their wonderful flavor and keeping qualities. Carefully shaped by hand and baked in a steam-injected brick oven, our wide selection of artisan breads will delight you in every way.

Hints on storing bread
Our breads taste great on the day they’re made; handle them properly, and you can enjoy them for several days.
- Store a baguette at room temperature, in its paper bag, for up to 1 day. For longer storage, wrap loosely in plastic. To restore its crisp crunch, reheat baguette in a 350°F oven for 5 to 10 minutes, tented loosely with foil, just before serving.
- Store soft sandwich breads or rolls at room temperature, wrapped in a plastic bag, for 4 to 5 days.
- Store sourdough or a dense country loaf at room temperature, in the bag in which it was purchased. Once cut, place the bread in the bag sliced-side down. After a day or two, slip the bread into a plastic bag. This will help preserve its moisture, though the crust will soften.
- Never refrigerate bread; it makes it go stale very quickly. For long storage, wrap bread very well in plastic, and freeze for up to 3 months. To serve, thaw at room temperature, remove it from the bag, and reheat in a 425°F oven for about 5 minutes.
