I live at Webster & Halsted & STILL have not visited. It’s quite ridiculous. These photos put me over the edge though. I’m going to be sure to plan at date at Floriole over the 4 day weekend! Great photos!
these behind the scenes photos make me want to hop on a plane & get over
to this fab bakery…& …eat, eat, eat!
the photos of the pie dough & steel links took me over the top!!
Ohhhhh…it’s my dream to open a little bakery and, for some reason,I’ve been thinking about it non-stop lately. These photos are incredible…looks like a sweet, sweet place indeed. Thanks for sharing, and I’ll make a note next time I’m in Chicago…
Hey Kari, I think those were actually going to be the shells of the quiches they sell. They are these sort of deep dish magical quiches, really delicious.
Those little cannele molds in the first pictures are the most adorable things. Too bad I live half a country away from the bakery. I’d be there in a jiffy I didn’t.

I am impressed by the use of chains as pie weights. What an awesome and obvious idea!

Renate, I totally agree about the chains! Brilliant idea and also so cool looking.

Your photos make me feel the dough, steel and heat. I’m imagining scents of yeast and butter, too. Thanks for the momentary out-of-body experience!

Those pies are gonna be huge! Do you know what kind they were? Sheesh, I’ve got to get some chains—dried beans totally do not cut it.

I went to Floriole on your recommendation, and I’d trade my right arm for their meringue recipe! The lemon tart was out of this world!
