Le Péché Gourmand

We are a traditional French boulangerie-patisserie doing classic simple recipes for croissants, breads and pastries. Located in Creswick, within 20 min to Ballarat or Daylesford, we are in close proximity to main attractions like Hepburn spas, Sovereign Hill, RACV Goldfields Golf resort, MTB tracks, and Lake St George.

All our bread and pastries are made on premises everyday and we use local organic ingredients sourced within one hundred mile radius when possible, such as Brooklands free range farm, Salt kitchen charcuterie, Tuki Farm, Bunnyniong Blueberry farm and Southern Light Herbs.

The name “Le Péché gourmand” comes from the translation of the “sin of gluttony”. We wanted to emphasize the French influence in our products as well as the notion of pleasure. In French it is actually something good to have a “ Péché Gourmand”. This usually means your favourite food, something you can’t resist, especially if you weren’t hungry anymore. It really emphasize the pleasure of eating something that will transcend all your senses. In French, “gourmandise” is opposed to “gloutonnerie” (gluttony) by the meaning of pleasure.
