In a small town about 80 miles northeast of Cheyenne is a little slice of Paris. It’s a bakery that draws regular customers from as far away as Billings, Montana, and beyond.

The bakery is The Bread Doctor in Torrington, but this is not just a story about a cool bakery with an old-world feel that serves delicious bread in the most unlikely of locations.

This is first and foremost a story about family, because that’s what inspired the creation of Torrington’s popular bakery at 2017 Main St.

“I started the bakery so that my daughter, Eleanor, could have a job,” Edzan Fluckiger told Cowboy State Daily. “She has Down syndrome. And there are better ways to say that than just saying it, but I’m just telling you that she has Down syndrome.”
