About

Three days from flour to loaf

The sourdough ferments for three days on a starter we have kept alive since 2011, which is why it keeps for a week and why people with mild wheat sensitivity often tell us they can eat it. We bake a fixed number each morning. Reserving is free and is the only reliable way to get a loaf after ten o'clock on a Saturday.

“I have a mild wheat sensitivity and can eat this bread with no trouble at all. Three-day ferment apparently makes the difference.”

Marianne C. · St. John's

“Turned up at 10:15 on a Saturday and everything was gone. Learned my lesson, reserve every week now, never disappointed since.”

Sean F. · Mount Pearl

“Ordered my daughter's birthday cake and they actually asked what she likes rather than showing me a catalogue. It was perfect.”

FAQ

Common questions

Why do you sell out?

We bake a fixed number each morning rather than baking to a target and binning the rest. Reserving is free and guarantees your loaf.

Is anything gluten-free?

No, and we would rather say so plainly — we mill and bake wheat all day and could not honestly promise a safe product for coeliac customers.

How far ahead for a celebration cake?

A week for custom cakes, from $85. Tell us who it is for and what they like rather than picking from a catalogue.

Do you supply cafes?

We do a small amount of wholesale on standing orders. Get in touch and we will see whether we have the capacity.
