Hi, We're Miette
A bakery devoted to revolutionizing the way we consume bread.
At Miette, we are driven by a philosophy of conscious simplicity. We are dedicated to the refinement of our practice, and the belief that less is more. In keeping with our commitment to honest, low-intervention craft baking, we source only the finest local organic flours and lead with sustainable practices.
This is bread as it should be, worthy of the glowing reputation it deserves.
OUR MISSION
There’s a bread movement going on, and we intend to be at its forefront.
our bread
Our relationship to food and its source is complicated. Ingredients we can’t pronounce have found their way into our diets. Much of our food system depends on our not knowing much about it. We think it’s time to change that. Flour + water + salt + sourdough starter. These are the ingredients in the Classic Miette loaf. Nothing more. Fresh, unfussy, simple, and alive.
our process
We love the simple things. Honest and traditional craftsmanship is important to us. Our process is a dedicated ritual that celebrates the interplay between intuition and science. No additives. No preservatives. Just the most delicious and nutritious bread, made naturally and shaped by hand. Simple as that.
OUR VALUES
We all leave an impact on the planet and have a responsibility to clean up our footprint. At Miette, we are doing our part to bake bread that is good for you and good for the planet. We carefully monitor waste and ensure unsold baked goods get a second life, use compostable and recyclable packaging, and encourage re-use over single-use items.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
One woman, a sourdough starter, and a used van.
Inherently curious and culinarily inclined, Thea Bryson was watching her vibrant sourdough starter bubble away in her home kitchen when a question struck her.
“How had bread—a natural, healthy, ancient source of nourishment—ended up with such a bad reputation?”
That inquisitive spirit inspired Thea to reintroduce real bread to people's daily lives—and in 2019, her vision manifested as Miette.
