Our Story
Founded in a small rented kitchen space in Port Chester, New York in 1991, Lecoq Cuisine has grown to be the preeminent manufacturer of fine French pastries in the United States.
It was established by pastry chef/baker Eric Lecoq whose mission was to create a “proof and bake” as well as a “ready to bake” croissant for the commercial marketplace.
Using only the finest quality ingredients and the most innovative manufacturing methods, Chef Lecoq’s passion brought the hand of the skilled pastry chef and the traditional flavor and flaky crispiness of the butter-laced croissant to a cost-effective, frozen pastry.
A Bridor Collection
In 2022, Le Duff Group announced the acquisition of Lecoq Cuisine, transforming it into a premium collection within Bridor North America. This strategic addition expanded Bridor's offering with a range of premium viennese pastries designed specifically for chefs and inspired by authentic French baking expertise.
Lecoq Cuisine was built on a relentless pursuit of excellence, innovation, and quality. These values, deeply rooted in Bridor's DNA, have naturally established the collection as a trusted choice for foodservice professionals across North America.
Today, Lecoq Cuisine brings together the best of both worlds: Bridor's French baking expertise and a collection created to meet the highest standards of professional chefs. With exceptional products, chefs benefit from authentic artisanal craftsmanship, the freedom to express their creativity, and a consistently premium culinary experience.
