History

In 1990 Nancy Silverton received the James Beard Foundation “Best Pastry Chef of the Year” Award. She has also written several books.

In 1998 the business raised $10 million for a new production plant in Van Nuys and became the largest artisanal bakery in the United States. The facility prepares parbaked bread, dough that has been 80% baked and then quick-frozen for baking later, and employed around 100 people in 1999. La Brea breads are widely available throughout the Los Angeles area and are sold in many supermarkets.

The company’s website includes many of the many articles that have been written about its goods.
