***Please note: Our breads are made with Organic Whole Grains. We stress Organic because we believe that food be grown without pesticides, and with lots of love and attention. We do not believe in un-natural chemicals or preservatives. ** *
We stress Whole Grains because we believe they have superior nutrition. Nutrition, after all, is the point of food. Making good-tasting, nutritious food is our chance for creative expression.
For Pastries we use a soft whole wheat flour. It is softer than bread flour, has a bit less protein than bread flour and provides a softer texture in our Cakes and Quickbreads, such as Banana, Cranberry, Apple. We also use Soft whole wheat flour in our Biscotti.
We use sifted whole wheat flour, which makes it 'All-Purpose' flour, since sifting removes some of the nutritious components.
