They were five competing bakeries, and only one winner was needed.
The Heron bakery, in Louviers (Eure), held by Thierry and Estelle Heron, was not selected during the Normandy regional final for this ninth season of the show ”The Best Baker in France”.
The program was broadcast this evening, Friday January 14, 2022 from 6:40 p.m., on M6, the day after the broadcast of the Euro round won by Maison Héron, located at the Becquet roundabout, near Intermarché .
The Atelier du Pain, in Cailly, Norman champion
In the end, it was the Atelier du Pain, in Cailly (Seine-Maritime), which won a ticket for the national final. This will decide between the top bakeries in the 13 French Regions.
Despite this end to the adventure, Thierry Héron has no regrets.
“The goal was not at all to go to Paris for the final. If we had had to be away with my baker, Sébastien Caron, for a week, it would have been complicated for the shop. »

Crowds at the Louviers bakery
The boss of the Loverian bakery wanted above all to talk about his Moelleux bread, a source of pride, and above all the traditional flan, the specialty of the brand.
“A lot of people came today to buy our flans and our other products. There were, I think, double the number of customers compared to a normal Friday. It didn’t stop! »
Success is therefore at the rendezvous for the Louviers bakery. Especially since she was able to increase her reputation in this way: “A lot of people who didn’t know us came to see us”, rejoices Thierry Héron.
A good player, the manager congratulates the bakery which won this regional final. “They really deserve to have won. They are great professionals who know the business,” he says.
