Baker Tharshan Selvarajah has made history by becoming the first Sri Lankan to win the prestigious competition for best baguette in Paris. Since his victory, his bakery now produces 1,000 baguettes every day, supplying esteemed restaurants and clients — including the presidential palace. Each loaf involves a careful baking process, from selecting the finest flour to perfecting the kneading technique and the final bake. The result is a perfectly crunchy, traditional French baguette.
