WINK OF GREETS :
To understand the French and France, you must know everything about the baguette. This is an essential rite of passage!
You will learn that the baguette owes part of its origin to the Napoleonic campaigns: loaves were previously round for better preservation. This elongated shape was invented by Napoleon’s bakers to make bread easier for soldiers to transport in their pockets.

You will discover that the baguette must meet specific characteristics and that each artisan has their own production techniques.
