Home bakery · Est. 2021

Small batches.
Real crumb.

Naturally leavened sourdough and seasonal pastries, mixed by hand and baked in small batches out of a home kitchen in Ridgewood — never more than 14 loaves a day.

About the bakery

One baker, one oven, one long fermentation.

The name comes from a running joke: Lorraine gets lost mid-knead more often than she'd like to admit, and "earth to Lorraine!" is what it took to get her attention back.

Flour comes from a regional stone mill, and the seasonal fruit in our pastries comes from whatever's actually good at the market that week. If the plums aren't right, the galette waits.
