Weekend Inspiration: Paris Market Baking Mixes

With the weekend coming up & Labor Day right around the corner, we're in the mood to get in the kitchen & do some baking. And thankfully, with our Paris Market baking mixes, it's about as easy as snapping your fingers to whip up some tasty treats. If you're looking to appease your sweet tooth, try the Lemon Lavender or Orange Cinnamon Scones, or the Lemon or Key Lime Squares. If savory is more your pleasing to your palette, then try the Rosemary Garlic Beer Bread, the Herbs de Provence Boule, or the Rustic French Bread. No matter if you go the savory or sweet route, you sure to please some tummies with any one (or all) of these delicious mixes. So what are you waiting for?! Stop by the store soon so you can get in the kitchen & start baking!!

Weekend Inspiration: Boulangerie Essentials

The weekend is almost upon us and we're ready for some much needed R and R. Over the past few months we've been working hard to refine our cafe's menu in an effort to make the best of a Parisian boulangerie available in our cafe. As we've begun carrying a delicious array of pastries and savories from our two favorite local bakeries, Back in the Day Bakery and Baker's Pride, we couldn't help but feel inspired by the tradition of a boulangerie. So, we thought this weekend was as good as any to try out a few recipes in our own home! To help us get started we've set aside a few boulangerie essentials and hopefully (with a little trial and error) we'll have a few successes to write about! If not, then at least we can enjoy the baker's process and a tradition that we can't imagine life without. Have a great weekend and bon appetit!

Baking essentials available at The Paris Market.

Weekend Inspiration: Recipe Necessities

Weekends are always our favorite time for trying out new recipes. We may not always get it right the first time, so having the freedom of a weekend to perfect a recipe is how we like to do it! Now that Friday is already here, we're thinking the next couple of days might be a good chance for us to put our baking hats back on and try out something new! And if all else fails, we always have our Paris Market simple baking mixes in case we need to whip up something delicious in a flash. Stop by the store for all of your baking and recipe necessities and have a great weekend!

The Perfect Loaf

Be prepared to bake a perfect artisan bread in your home! The Paris Market would like to introduce you to our new signature bread mix, Herbes de Provence Boule.

Last Friday, after a long week at the store, I woke up thirty minutes before everybody else. I mixed the bread mix with water, put it in a bowl and let it rise all day.

My day was going along and just like the dough, my excitement was rising.

I made a stop at a local grocery store, bought an amazing palette of french cheese, picked up some treasures and headed home for the last project of my week! It took me 45 minutes to have in my hands a perfect artisan bread, just like the best bakeries in France, but made by me. INCROYABLE!

It was an honor to share this beautiful bread with my friend. Simply a happy moment!
