JULIE BELCHER
Founder of Rêverie

Julie Belcher of Miette Nashville learned to bake in her home kitchen while working as a barista and a French teacher. After realizing that her love for bread exceeded the rest, she left for France to study under the experts. Following a year of travel, apprenticing under a number of bakers, Julie arrived in Angers, France at La Boulangerie des Carmes which would become her culinary home for several years. This experience fostered an ardor for French culture and cuisine that provides the basis for Miette, a series of home baking classes - Julie’s way of sharing the skills and traditions she now holds so dear.
