A croissant’s structure is built long before it turns golden.

Rolling and folding create alternating layers of dough and butter. Keeping those layers separate takes control.

Butter that’s too cold can fracture during rolling. Too warm, and it can smear into the dough. The dough itself needs rest between folds so it can stretch without fighting back.

Fermentation expands the dough. In the oven, expanding gases and steam help open the structure before it sets.

At Tintin, that fermentation comes entirely from sourdough, without added commercial yeast.

This is part of what happens while the café doors are closed.

Doors closed, shelves clear. 💨
Read this before Pena kicks off his next 3-day cycle tonight...

A massive thank you to everyone who made this week an absolute sell-out success at Tintin The Bakery & Tintin The Café. Seeing our neighborhood fill their bags with honest, yeast-free bread is exactly why we do what we do.

If you managed to take a whole loaf home today, your gut is going to thank you. 🌾🧬

Many people who experience discomfort or bloating from standard bread find that they can enjoy our loaves without any issues. The secret isn’t a special ingredient, it’s pure time.

Commercial baking yeast rushes dough to rise in just a couple of hours, leaving the heavy glutens and complex starches completely untouched. Because Tintin The Bakery operates a 100% yeast-free kitchen, Pena (our 100-year-old starter) is forced to do all the heavy lifting over a slow, 3-day fermentation process.

During these hours, the wild cultures naturally break down the fructans and glutens, essentially “pre-digesting” the grain for you. The result is a nutrient-dense, easily digestible loaf that is incredibly gentle on your stomach and keeps you genuinely full.

Invest in your well-being. 🖤

Our bakers are already prepping, because tonight Pena kicks off his next slow, fermentation cycle for the upcoming week. Real sourdough waits for no one! 🕰️🌾

Don’t want to risk arriving to an empty shelf next week? Remember our dough prep deadlines. Message/email us today to reserve your whole loaves or sweet pastries for wed-Fri,so your order is safely secured at the counter.

Have a beautiful Sunday evening, and we’ll see you bright and early when the storefront doors open again on Wednesday morning! 🤍

The depth of a dark bake. 🥈🌾 That intense, dark crust isn’t burnt. It’s the flavor signature of a 100-year-old starter.

When you look at our bread wall at Tintin The Bakery, you will instantly notice our deep, dark, intensely caramelized crusts. To the untrained eye, it looks dark. To a culinary purist, it is the holy grail: the Maillard reaction at its absolute peak.

Because our doughs undergo a slow, multi-day wild fermentation driven by our 100-year-old starter, Pena, the natural starches in the grain are broken down into complex, delicate sugars. When these hit our screaming hot ovens, they caramelize beautifully.

This deep mahogany crust locks the moisture inside the loaf, gives our bakes their signature rustic chew, and naturally preserves the bread so it stays fresh on your kitchen counter for days without a single preservative.

Stop by Lönnrotinkatu today and pick up a masterpiece for your table. 🥖

We love a big weekend crowd, but Pena makes the rules! 🥐🥖

We hear it all the time on Fridays: “Can I grab 8 loaves of Suorama and 15 Pain au Chocolat for a family gathering tomorrow?” We wish we could always say yes on the spot, but because Tintin The Bakery operates a 100% yeast-free kitchen, our doughs cannot be rushed.

Pena, our 100-year-old starter, needs a head start. We mix our master weekend batches tonight on Thursday!

To ensure your large weekend gatherings are fully fueled, and to keep our daily shelves stocked for walk-ins, please lock in your large orders right now:

🤍 For Saturday or Sunday pickups:
-> Orders must be placed by Wednesday evening, before our bakers starts crafting the doughs on Thursday morning.

If you need a large batch (4+ loaves or 10+ pastries), send us a DM here on Instagram with your items, quantities, and preferred pickup day. We’ll have your order packed and waiting at the counter! 🖤

Our doors are closed today, but the bakery is alive. Pena never takes a day off. 🕰️✨

The invisible work behind a 3-day fermentation. 🤫🌾

Even though our café doors are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, Tintin The Bakery is completely alive. Because we refuse to use a single granule of fast commercial yeast shortcuts, our production requires immense patience and preparation.

Pena, our 100-year-old sourdough starter, doesn’t know what a weekend is. He needs to be fed, monitored, and respected every single day.

Right now, our bakers are quietly hand-crafting the master batches that will fill our shelves later this week. Every loaf of bread and every delicate French pastry you enjoy from Wednesday to Sunday is getting its start right now in the quiet of our closed cafe.

Real artisan mastery takes time. We can’t wait to open the doors tomorrow morning and show you what we’ve been working on. See you at 08:00! 🤍

And just like that, the shelves are clear. 🥖💨

Some days we’re sold out for the day! A massive thank you to everyone who supports us for brunch or braved the morning line at Tintin The Bakery to fill their bags with our signature loaves, pastries, and weekend specials.

Because we stick strictly to our traditional, multi-day fermentation schedule (our 100-year-old starter dictates the pace!), when a batch is gone, we cannot simply bake a quick emergency backup. Real craft takes time.

Don’t want to risk an empty shelf next week? Remember that our mixing schedule is locked in on Sundays and Thursdays.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and we’ll see you bright and early when the ovens heat up again! 🏃‍♂️🔥
