True craftsmanship from Helgeroa!
Roa Micro Bakery bakes real bread using real ingredients, with genuine passion.
This small, local artisan bakery has chosen a different path, focusing on traditional baking methods. It offers sourdough-based products made with long fermentation times and stone-milled flour from Kvelde Mølle. With an emphasis on craftsmanship and local ingredients, the bakery produces classic breads, sweet yeast pastries, and cakes for special occasions.
Each loaf is made with sourdough that ferments slowly, resulting in a distinctive flavor and texture that reflects a deep respect for the craft. The bakery also offers tempting sourdough cinnamon buns and other sweet specialties.
Gluten-free options are available for those with coeliac disease, ensuring that more people can enjoy quality baked goods.
With a strong belief in understanding the journey of grain from field to table, the couple behind the bakery, Stian and Anne Marie Sletsjø, combine their passion for food with a strong local connection.
In addition to the shop, leftover items from the day are placed on a shelf outside the entrance, where payment can be made via Vipps.
