Solange Bakery: Elevating Artisan Baking on the Yorkshire Coast

Handcrafted Breads and Pastries, Made with Tradition and Local Ingredients

A Passion for Artisan Baking

At Solange Bakery, baking is more than just a craft—it’s an art form. The team believes in the importance of slow fermentation, natural ingredients, and time-honoured techniques that allow flavours to fully develop. Their signature sourdough, made with a carefully nurtured starter, is a customer favourite, offering a crisp crust, airy crumb, and complex flavour that sets it apart from mass-produced alternatives. Each loaf is handcrafted, shaped, and baked to perfection, ensuring that every bite delivers a taste of true artisan quality.

Beyond sourdough, the bakery produces a diverse selection of breads, pastries, and sweet treats, all made with the same meticulous attention to detail. Their buttery croissants, rich brioche, and crisp baguettes showcase classic French baking influences, while their Yorkshire-inspired bakes celebrate local flavours and ingredients.

Sourcing the Finest Local Ingredients

Solange Bakery prides itself on using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients to create its bakes. Flour is carefully selected from Yorkshire mills, ensuring that every loaf has the best possible texture and flavour. Local free-range eggs, farm-fresh dairy, and seasonal fruits are incorporated into their pastries and cakes, highlighting the region’s rich agricultural heritage. By prioritizing sustainability and ethical sourcing, Solange Bakery not only supports local producers but also guarantees that its products are free from unnecessary additives and preservatives.

This dedication to using the best ingredients shines through in the taste of their baked goods—simple, honest, and packed with natural flavour.

Craftsmanship Meets Innovation

While Solange Bakery respects time-honoured baking traditions, they are also constantly innovating, experimenting with new flavours, techniques, and modern twists on classic bakes. Their seasonal specials showcase the best produce available at different times of the year, from rhubarb and custard Danish pastries in spring to spiced apple and hazelnut loaves in autumn. Their ability to blend tradition with creativity has earned them a loyal following and a place on the menus of some of Yorkshire’s top restaurants and cafés.

A Bakery at the Heart of the Community

Beyond producing exceptional bread and pastries, Solange Bakery is deeply embedded in the local community. They regularly take part in farmers’ markets, food festivals, and pop-up events, allowing customers to experience their freshly baked goods straight from the oven. They also supply a variety of independent businesses, ensuring that high-quality, artisan bread is accessible to more people.

The bakery also runs workshops and masterclasses, sharing their knowledge of traditional baking techniques with aspiring home bakers. From perfecting sourdough starters to mastering laminated doughs, these hands-on sessions have become hugely popular among food enthusiasts looking to elevate their baking skills.
