Pastry Chef Pascal Rigo was in Toronto yesterday to help ring-in a new phase in Starbucks‘ illustrious and caffeinated Story. Let’s face it – not all Starbucks food is stellar. In response to this, Starbucks had acquired Rigo‘s San Francisco-based La Boulange™ in 2012 and next month, the Bakery’s deliciousness will be taking over the Pastry Cases of Starbucks across Canada. It is estimated by March 2015, that 70% of Starbucks stores across Ontario and British Columbia will be carrying exclusively La Boulange™ goodies. The roll-out continues through Atlantic Canada and Quebec late March and Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba by June.
Let’s take a quick peak at the mouthwatering Roster of Pastries:
Butter Croissant
Chocolate Croissant
Almond Danish
Cheese Danish
Orange Cranberry Scone
Flourless Chocolate Cookie
Marshmallow Dream Bar
Double Chocolate Brownie
Blueberry Scone
These will launch in Toronto on Tuesday, March 3, 2015 and we’ll be there to try them first! Can’t wait!
