LEVAIN COOKIE FLAVORS

It’s really hard to choose one flavor; we think that the only choice is to have them all. Fortunately, the website has assortments. (There are also alluring photos of each on the Levain website.)

 
Resistance is futile.

You can even freeze the cookies (we first cut them into quarters so we can enjoy a piece at a time with coffee, tea, or yes, milk!).

*Bonus points: Do you know what levain is? Levain Bakery started as a bread bakery—and still is a great one. Pronounced luh-VAN, levain, also called a leaven or levain starter, is a mixture of fresh flour, water, and sourdough starter. Sourdough bread is also called levain bread or, in French, pain au levain—levain is French for leaven. In France the term is often used synonymously with sourdough. Here’s more about it.
