W.B. Samson is Oslo's oldest bakery, established in 1894. The bakery specializes in sourdough bread, cinnamon buns, school bread, cakes and Viennese goods. In addition to baked goods, they offer lunch dishes with a focus on quality ingredients, reflecting their commitment to craftsmanship and tradition.
The bakery collaborates with the Valdresmeieriet to make its own cheese, produced from milk from local farms. They also use mountain pigs from Valdres in their products, which contributes to a local anchoring in food production. W.B. Samson is known for its handmade bread, which is left to rise for a long time and baked in a hot stone oven, which gives it a characteristic taste and texture. Recently, they have also started pressing their own orange juice, which has gained recognition for its taste.
