I am buying a sandwich, and there are two pieces of bead in the sandwich. The bread is wonderful. I do not buy loaves of it because it would be a waste, especially at $5-6 per loaf. We have another good bakery in town where I get whole wheat and while grain breads. I have been encouraging my brother to buy his bread there but he says it is too expensive. It is about twice as much as he pays for bread from the local supermarket bakery. The real bakery bread loaves are bigger and weigh about twice as much, and they are so much better. |

It's over $5.00 elsewhere. The loaves are smaller than a cheap bread loaf but it is fine for us when there are just two of us in the house. We don't always finish the loaf so I freeze the extra and make stuffing with it about once a month. But now that my husband is home we go through two loaves in a week, easily. He is a big sandwich eater. Daughter and I are not. |

The thing that makes bread artisan is that it's hand formed, typically free form but can also be baked in some sort of pan... the typical pizza is artisan bread. |
