We are a local, family-owned bakery grown out of a love of good food and quality service. We bring a little bit of European café culture where boulangeries dot the neighborhoods, to the suburbs of New Jersey. Our bread and pastry are made from scratch, in downtown Millburn. Pop into our bakery and you'll see our bread bakers at work; scaling ingredients, mixing and shaping loaves, and baking off b
reads. Our pastry program includes a wide range of croissant, puff and Danish doughs. These 'laminated doughs' are our specialty here, produced in our special cold room in the back of our facility. These layers of dough create all of the wonderfully caramelized and flaky pastry you'll experience at Liv Breads, including not only croissant, but babka, rugelach, bourekas, turnovers and fruit-filled Danish. A range of cakes and cookies complements these flaky pastry. Our menu changes regularly, in order to reflect the season at-hand. We have worked hard to source locally and use organic ingredients wherever possible. Our sandwiches and salads are crafted to highlight our breads, baked fresh each morning.

Simple ingredients, lots of patience. Hydrated with loads of water and enriched with olive oil, it bakes up with an airy, open crumb and a crisp golden crust. Made simply with flour, water, olive oil, yeast, and salt, it serves as the foundation for many of our favorites, including our topped focaccia pizza, ciabatta bread, and onion bialy.
