Our Story
Marbré emerged from a deep love for the art of baking and a desire to share this passion with others. Our founder, Hafsa Koita, began this journey in her kitchen, driven by a commitment to crafting exquisite pastries inspired by the timeless elegance of French pâtisserie. With her two young boys and a supportive husband by her side, eagerly tasting and providing feedback on every new recipe, Hafsa turned her culinary dream into reality.
The name "Marbré" (French for "marble") reflects our signature marbled pastries, symbolizing the harmonious blend of flavors and the intricate craftsmanship that define our products. From humble beginnings, Marbré has grown into a beloved local pâtisserie known for its commitment to quality and its beautifully crafted, delectable creations.
Our story is one of dedication, family, and the joy of sharing delicious moments with our community. Each pastry is made with love and attention to detail, ensuring that every customer enjoys the same warmth and delight that inspired our founder to start this journey.
