Our Bread
We only ever use natural, wholesome ingredients and ensure that they are the best we can find. We never use flour improvers, processing aids or enzymes – ingredients which are often used to save time or increase shelf life. Instead, we invest the time and skill needed to create real, honest bread that looks, smells and tastes amazing.
We use traditional techniques, hand-moulding our loaves and proving them in linen-lined proving baskets. Baking them directly on the oven floor or in the tin helps to create a delicious crust.
Our range of breads includes:
Sourdough
Our trademark sourdough loaf made slowly with our unique Bertinet ferment. With a beautiful thick, caramelised crust, sourdough has a wonderful full flavour. In our sourdough, the characteristic sour notes are mild and slightly sweet. Unlike most breads, which are best eaten the day they are baked, a large sourdough can last for the best part of a week.
