Real Bread Week

Real Bread Week

Real Bread Week is the annual, international celebration of supporting your local, independent Real Bread bakery and baking your own, something that we’ve become very much a part of over recent years and we appreciate your support in that.

For more info on what we've been up to as Bread Angels, pop over to our main blog at Hen Corner.

Thank you to all who placed orders last week, we hope the new system was straightforward, it certainly made things easier our end to ensure that we had your bakes ready for you!

You may have seen in the Facebook Group that we are getting more Fresh Eggs from the hens now that the days are getting longer, we'll have a few boxes available to order each week, on a first come, first served basis. Please can we ask you not to order more than one box allowing us to share them around those who would like them?

Orders are already coming in for this week, so for inspiration, here are some of the things we are definitely baking this week:

  • Beetroot Sourdough - This has become very popular over recent weeks with the sweet root gently balancing the flavour of the sour dough
  • French Baguette - The real thing, so popular that Katie is considering buying a new fridge to store all the dough in overnight for it's long fermentation!
  • Almond Twist - A real favourite of Katie and I, we stash them in the freezer and warm them up in the oven during the week

As always, we ask for orders to be placed by 5pm the day before we bake allowing us to plan the baking schedules and start the sourdoughs. The new ordering system will no longer accept orders after 5pm the day before you want to collect, so do let us know what you fancy earlier in the week.

If you realise that you've missed the 5pm deadline, do look out for our spare bakes that we post on our Facebook Group on Friday afternoons, I'm sure we'll have something available that you'll like!

We are looking forward to baking for you again, so let us know what you fancy and we can get started!

All products can be found by collection or by searching for your favourite, 

Don't forget that all our loaves are made with organic flour and ethically sourced ingredients and everything can be frozen if you don't think you'll eat it all straight away.

Thanks and we hope to see you on Friday,

Sara & Katie

p.s. If you have any allergies or questions do leave a note on your order or get in touch ;)
