The Toussaint Bakery was the idea of Mr. Edouard Toussaint who came to Berlin in 1881. He worked for the Furbish Mill for a few years and was successful in the lumbering business under the name of "Guay and Toussaint". Edouard Toussaint got into the bakery business in 1888, having started the "Toussaint Baking Company" just below his huge bakery which was built in 1914. The Toussaint Bakery was called home of the "Butter Krust Bread" and was producing over 45 thousand loaves of bread a week.
