Toque Blanche, Santa Cruz: 

 

About Toque BlancheToque Blanche Chef Hat

There’s an interesting story behind the white pleated chef’s hat known as the toque blanche. Many years ago, the number of pleats in a chef’s hat signified the number of ways he or she could cook an egg, with a more-pleated hat adorned only by the most experienced and skillful of chefs. Our taking the name Toque Blanche for the store is our way of paying homage to hardworking chefs everywhere--both in professional and home kitchens.

In business since 1996, our experienced staff and excellent selection of products serves the needs of a diverse community of professional and home chefs, culinary students and casual cooks.
