Ninefold Concept by Airen. Ninefold is a fictional business.

Tomorrow’s bread,
packed tonight

A sourdough bakery in Toronto’s east end. Fill tomorrow’s bag by 8 p.m.; we bake it overnight and it waits on the shelf with your name.

Order by 8 p.m.
Pick up from 7 a.m.
Wednesday to Sunday

Pickup day

    Your bag is empty. Add a loaf to start. Put my name on it

    What happens after 8 p.m.

    Four things in the bowl

    Flour, water, salt and our starter. Nothing else goes in, so the flavour has to come from time.

    Folded by hand, nine times

    Every half hour the dough is stretched and folded over itself. Each fold traps more air and lines up the strands. It is where our name comes from.

    Shaped and scored

    Pulled tight into rounds and batards, then cut with one blade so each loaf opens along its own ear.

    On stone, with steam

    The deck oven sets the bubbles and turns the crust thin and crackling. Then the loaves cool on the racks.

    Your bag, on the shelf

    Pre orders sit on their own shelf, bagged and named. Walk in, pick up, still warm.

    Good bread takes a whole night. Pre order and you only wait for the door to open.

    What comes off the racks

    Every loaf here is drawn from its own seed. Tap one to slice it and see the crumb the night left behind.

    Nothing on this day yet. Specials go up on Thursday night.

    Drawings, not photographs. A real bakery’s own photos would sit beside them.

    Three steps, and no line

    1

    Choose by 8 p.m.

    Pick your loaves and a pickup day. We mix the dough for every pre order that night.

    2

    We bake overnight

    Your bread goes through the same night as everything else: mix, nine folds, shape, bake.

    3

    Pick up after seven

    Your bag is on the pre order shelf with your name. Pay at the counter when you collect.

    Your Google reviews appear here

    On a client site this space shows real reviews from the bakery’s Google profile. Ninefold is a fictional business, so it stays empty.

    Before you order

    What if it sells out before I get there?

    That is what pre orders are for. Anything ordered by 8 p.m. is baked that night and set aside under your name until closing.

    Is your sourdough very sour?

    Mildly. A long cool ferment gives a rounded flavour rather than a sharp one. The seeded rye is the deepest; the country loaf is the gentlest.

    Why pay more than the grocery store?

    Each loaf takes a full night of work by hand, with four ingredients and no shortcuts. Scroll back up to watch the night it goes through.

    When do I pay?

    At the counter when you pick up. No card details online.

    Can I order for an office or a party?

    Yes. Choose “Tray for a group” in the form and tell us the day and headcount. We reply by the next evening.

    Do you deliver?

    Not yet. Everything is picked up at the shop, so the bread reaches you as fresh as it left the rack.

    Put your name on the bag

    Order by 8 p.m. for the next morning. Pay when you pick up. Change or cancel any time before 8 p.m. by replying to our email.

    Your bag is empty. Pick loaves at the top of the page, or list them in the form.

    This is a concept form. Nothing is sent.

    This is a concept

    Ninefold Bakehouse is a fictional business made by Airen to show bakeries what their site could do. On a real site, this bag would land in the baker’s inbox and order sheet.
