Boise baker Mary Cogswell is only half-joking when she says the reason her husband fell for her was because she smelled like tomato basil bread.
“She used to set me up with that (bread) all of the time,” recalled Grant Beebe, who was impressed with all the baked goods that Cogswell made for him and fellow smokejumpers. “It was certainly part of the appeal.”
Cogswell’s Wildflour Bakery has won legions of fans over the past two decades – primarily through sales at the Boise Co-op but also more recently through Whole Foods – and now the bakery is finally getting a home of its own. The business will soon be moving into a new, nearly 2,000-square-foot building in Garden City that was designed to be a bakery.
