They’re known in Vancouver for their pastries and now Beaucoup Bakery is bringing its delicacies to the Squamish area.
Set to open this winter, the Parisian-inspired bakery will bring its signature desserts such as mooncakes, kouign amann and mango yuzu cake to the newly renovated Britannia Beach Townhomes development.
"We're excited to open our third location at Britannia Beach, a community that shares our love for nature, history, and of course, good food," co-owner Betty Hung said in a press release.
Hung took over Beaucoup Bakery in 2017 with her brother Jacky Hung.
"Jacky and I used to drive up to Whistler with our family and would often pass by the Britannia Mine Museum,” she said.
“It’s a spot with a lot of heritage, and we look forward to introducing visitors and residents to our French-inspired creations very soon.”
The new location will be a 50-seat space and combine the charm of a French Alpine retreat with a nod to the area's rich mining history.
The menu will feature Beaucoup Bakery’s signature collection of pastries, viennoiseries, cakes, and savoury sandwiches, alongside seasonal items exclusive to the Britannia Beach location, such as beignets and tartes.
A full beverage menu with coffees, teas and hot chocolate will also be available.
Beaucoup Bakery makes up one of three new commercial tenancies announced as part of the Britannia Beach Townhomes development.
Nine 100-year-old mining-era buildings were renovated to make way for commercial tenancies in the growing coastal community.
“This location is very special, and we wanted to ensure we created a space that feels like a getaway from the city – a place that is warm and inviting,” Hung said.
“We can’t wait for our guests to experience it.”
The new Beaucoup Bakery will be located at 161 Copper Dr., Britannia Beach.
