Carlotta Boulangerie Mexicaine
The Montreal Bakery Where Innovation Meets Tradition
Carlotta Boulangerie Mexicaine is a bakery serving innovative flavors and creating a vibrant community center.
Nestled in the heart of Montreal, Carlotta Boulangerie Mexicaine is more than a bakery; it’s a testament to the harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. When you walk through the door, you may think that mistakenly stepped into a feminist collective planning a revolution, and you wouldn’t be mistaken. But its a food revolution - elevating Latin flavors by using artisanal approaches and classic techniques, AND keeping it accessible to all.
The bakery’s breads, pastries, and confections evoke a sense of nostalgia, while respecting traditional techniques, and experimenting with new flavors, textures, and designs. Mexican conchas, dulce de leche croissants, black mole brioches, and guava danishes, share the stage with seasonal offers like matcha-infused éclairs, lavender honey danishes, and vegan brioche rolls.
An Authentic Community Hub
Carlotta Bakery is also a gathering spot for the community. Regular events like baking workshops, cultural showcases, and seasonal tastings foster a sense of connection. The bakery’s inclusive philosophy extends to its hiring practices as well. Carlotta actively supports local artisans and provides opportunities for emerging bakers and chefs, making it a nurturing space for creativity and growth.
In addition, the bakery strives to make a positive impact on the environment and the community, and donates unsold goods to local shelters, to reduce food waste.
Sustainable, Quality Ingredients & Creative Vibes in Every Detail
Every ingredient used is of the highest quality, sourced from local farms and purveyors whenever possible, and ensuring that every exquisite bite supports Montreal’s local economy. They also use compostable packaging. The vibe is inspirational - adorned with the colors, shapes and smells of Mexico that evoke an artistic family home versus a Cinco de Mayo bar crawl.
