Food for Thought Organic Bakery
Our Ethos
The Bakery is small, frequently a one baker operation. The equipment is kept to a minimum, ie mixers and ovens, we like Nature to do as much as possible of the work.
Our aim is to produce wholesome foods that are suitable for the widest possible number of people. So we bake using only natural ingredients and use techniques which harness Natures and our bodies abilities. We use slow processing techniques which take advantage of natural processes that mankind has evolved with over millennia.
All the bakery's products are hand made and display the natural variations that this brings. We do not use processing aids to speed up production, instead our view is we are going to eat this, so we will make it wholesome. Our breads are baked to have character and flavour, to be satisfying and digestable. We use both wheats and ancient grains to give choice to those who prefer to be wheat free. Our slow techniques allow the natural microbial populations present in the flours to create a more digestable flavoursome loaf.
