The taste of Argentina handcrafted in Nova Scotia

About Us

Molde Bakery & Food was born from founder Elbio Chiliano’s masterful blend of die-making and passion for Argentinian cuisine. After finding a fresh beginning in Nova Scotia, he now shares his heritage through authentic, unforgettable flavours.

Launched April 23, 2023, in Dartmouth, we handcraft Argentina’s most beloved icons — medialunas (not a typical croissant), alfajores, and dulce de leche delights — made with authentic recipes, a local twist and ingredients.

Our story is one of bold reinvention. After years in metalworking, Elbio followed his calling: first training as a chef in 1999, then mastering pastry in 2018. Moving to Nova Scotia with his family offered new stability and opportunity — and a chance to share Argentina’s rich flavours with his new community.

Testimonials

Federico C.

Elbio, the alfajores are amazing. I almost teared up because they taste just like the Havanas I used to have with my grandparents in Mar del Plata. Honestly, it’s incredible. Thank you for making things with such excellent quality! And the medialunas, no words. Big hug!

Honestly, these medialunas take me back to places and moments I miss so much. They are absolutely delicious, just like walking into the neighborhood bakery when I was a kid. We’re so lucky to have MOLDE in Halifax!

When I learned that someone was making authentic Argentinian pastries here in Nova Scotia, my heart was filled with happiness. Every bite of their medialunas or churros takes me straight back to the best bakeries in Buenos Aires. The flavor, texture, and freshness are simply incredible. On top of their amazing food, they are some of the warmest, friendliest people you'll meet. For anyone who has never tried Argentine baked goods, this is the perfect introduction. Thank you for bringing a true taste of home to Nova Scotia!
