The Maison Nicole bakery, recently opened in Berre-l'Étang, has been enthusiastically welcomed by residents, who are delighted with the quality of the artisanal pastries and breads offered.

The artisans at Maison Nicole have captured the hearts and taste buds of their first customers, who were thrilled with the various viennoiseries and breads, setting excellence as their benchmark. Many had promised to be present from the opening on September 1st, a promise kept as numerous Berre-l'Étang residents came at dawn to discover the products of this new establishment.
« We worked tirelessly! We are very happy with the welcome and this general enthusiasm! » exclaims Nicole Benet. The products offered by the neo-Berrois brand are noteworthy, and the history of this family of bakers speaks for itself. Cédric and Nicole Benet have already opened three bakeries in Rognac, Saint-Victoret, and Pélissanne, all of which were resounding successes where they consistently highlighted their expertise, driven by the desire to offer genuine artisanal work.
At the heart of good artisanal bread prepared according to the rules of the art are good flours. This task is entrusted to their daughter, Alexia Benet, a sales representative at Moulins Soufflet. She supplies the family bakery with the best: all flours are 100% French, « responsible », and label rouge for the « tradition » baguette. These flours are local, sourced from mills located in Le Thor, near Avignon. Many varieties of bread are available, including the signature baguette « La Berroise », made with wheat, rye, rye sourdough, corn, and toasted barley flours.
Among Cédric Benet's flagship products, mousses rank at the very top, alongside 100% homemade pastries and trompe-l'œil creations, which will be available soon. Very soon, Maison Nicole will offer its customers a snacking area with prepared meals to enjoy on-site or take away.
Maison Nicole is located at 65 avenue de la Libération. You can also find them on Facebook under the name Maison Nicole and on Instagram @maison_nicole13130.
