Located in Bourg de Péage, the Pascalis bakery was founded in 1892 by the family's great-grandfather.
In addition to a wide range of breads and viennoiseries, this bakery makes the famous Pogne de Romans brioche, for which the company has been renowned for four generations.
The production of this brioche, delicately scented with orange blossom, dates back to the Middle Ages. The recipe has been preserved, and the know-how to make it has been handed down from father to son.
Once a traditional Easter brioche, it is now eaten all year round, to the delight of young and old alike.
It's one of the jewels in our gastronomic crown!
