It has a thick, crunchy crust, that helps preserving it for a bit longer. Or what about <strong>sourdough bread<\/strong> with a crispy crust? Taking their time to make this bread at Forn Europa, it is a light, soft bread, that is easier to eat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Other highlights at this bakery are: whole wheat bread, <strong>multigrain bread<\/strong> (with oats, flax, sesame and whole wheat flour) and <strong>bread with walnut and pistachio<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/vegan-bakery\/\">Vegan Bakeries in Barcelona<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Forn_de_Pa_Providencia\"><\/span>Forn de Pa Provid\u00e8ncia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_99790\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-99790\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-99790\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bread-4046506_640-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"brioche bread\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-99790\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo via Pixabay<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Forn de Pa Provid\u00e8ncia, located at <strong>Carrer de Provid\u00e8ncia 59<\/strong>\u00a0next to <strong>Pla<\/strong><strong>\u00e7a Rovira<\/strong> in the <strong>Gracia neighbourhood,<\/strong>\u00a0is a century-old, artisan bakery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Master craftsman <strong>Xavier Corcellas<\/strong> has been in charge of this bakery since 2004.

After a certain amount of time, he was transferred to the bakery in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/barcelona-rent\/sant-andreu\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>Sant Andreu neighbourhood<\/strong><\/a>. It was this place that taught him responsibilities and where he developped professionally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The bakery specializes in <strong>traditional bread<\/strong>, new types of bread and <strong>buns<\/strong>, and every bread is made with natural ingredients at their bakery workshop, with the best flour and using longer fermentations.
