Manresa Bread Chocolate Babka

We’re living in a golden age of baked goods here in America. Across the country, dedicated bakers are rediscovering old methods of milling, leavening and baking to create exceptional bread and pastries. Avery Ruzicka, the force behind Manresa Bread, is one of those people. The concept started inside the Bay Area’s three-Michelin-star Manresa, and has grown to all-day cafes and an online store that delivers to the Lower 48. It’s hard to go wrong with anything you select from impossibly light panettone to the whole wheat loaf. But we especially love the airy chocolate babka that has a tangy sour note that gives it a really unique depth of flavor. Mom will love it, too.
