​“It tastes like a holiday in your own country—bringing the joy of the French way of life closer than ever.” 

At Arke Bakery, we craft our sourdough breads following traditional French methods, just as it was done long ago, right at the mill.

 Our key ingredient? Sustainably grown Zeeland grain, stone-milled by hand at the Korenmolen d’Arke. We work exclusively with freshly milled flour, resulting in bread that is richly aromatic and packed with nutrients, unsaturated fatty acids, and minerals.

 Freshly milled flour behaves differently from stored flour: it’s alive with natural enzymes and yeasts, offering unparalleled flavor and texture—but it also requires skill to master. 

For our bakers, this is a challenge they embrace to ensure every loaf is consistent in shape, taste, and quality. “Artisan” for us means: wind-powered milling, stone-ground flour, our own recipes, and absolutely no artificial additives. The result? Bread full of character, tradition, and authentic flavor.
