Our breads

-->
We are proud of our artisan breads which are all hand-made and contain no preservatives, shortenings or softeners. The all-natural ingredients used in our breads have ensured that our customers are eating healthier, wholesome, home-made goodness.  The absence of softeners and improvers provide our breads with a texture that easily springs back, that is, it won’t squash easily!

With choice ingredients of the highest quality, we make sure that there are no additives used and only natural colouring.  We have opted for the blue from bunga telang, green from pandan, orange from pumpkins and purple from sweet potatoes.

Breads are proofed at room temperature which is a long but natural fermentation process.  This method improves shelf life while maintaining better flavour and texture of breads. 

As all breads are hand-made, we cannot guarantee 100% standardization of shapes.  However, our customers can rest assured that all ingredients are weighed so that no one is shortchanged.

FAQ on keeping breads


How long can our breads last?
Unlike mass-produced wheat breads, our breads can only keep for 3 days at room temperature.  However, we highly recommend that you seal and freeze bread(s) as soon as you get home to keep them fresh and to maintain a longer shelf life. 

How to keep your breads fresh?
Slice, portion and wrap our breads with sealed plastic bag(s) and store in FREEZER soon after purchase to prevent breads from drying out. 

DON’Ts
1. Never store our breads in a FRIDGE as it draws out moisture and causes the breads to go stale faster. (Putting breads in the fridge is equivalent to 3 days at room temperature!)

2. Never defrost frozen breads in microwave, as it will become dry, soggy and unpalatable.

3. Never re-freeze thawed breads.

How to best consume frozen breads?
Frozen breads can be toasted, warmed in an oven or grilled in a pan. You will be amazed by their aromatic crust and superior soft bread texture. The recommended temperature for warming the bread in the oven is 200 C for about 5-10 minutes.
