Born in Córdoba, Baked in Seattle

Nuestra historia

A family recipe that crossed 6,800 miles to find a new home.

Argentum began in Córdoba, Argentina, in a kitchen where medialunas came out of the oven before sunrise and the mate was always within reach. We brought those recipes, that craft, and that warmth to the brick streets of Pioneer Square.

Every layer of dough is laminated by hand, the way our family has always done it. This isn't fusion. It's the real thing, simply baked a little closer to the Sound.

Nuestro oficio

The craft behind every layer

Three generations of Argentine baking, done the slow way. No shortcuts, no mixes, no compromises.

Facturas with pastry cream fresh out of the oven

Dough laminated by hand

Every batch of facturas starts the night before. The dough is folded, buttered and rested in stages, then shaped one by one and baked at dawn. That is where the shine, the layers and the pull-apart softness come from.

Dulce de leche, the real one

Not caramel. Not a substitute. Slow-cooked dulce de leche runs through our cakes, alfajores and pastries in generous layers, the way it should. One look at the cut tells you everything.

Sándwiches de miga, a national treasure

Paper-thin crustless bread, ham, cheese, egg, tomato. In Argentina no birthday, office meeting or family visit happens without them. We make ours fresh daily, and Seattle is about to understand why.
