Home / ABOUT THE BAKERY

 

Hello!

We are an independent, family business baking 100% gluten free bread and granola with the taste & texture you crave.

Being coeliac and having two coeliac children I completely understand how tricky it can be to find gluten free bread that is actually tasty, nicely textured and nutritious. That’s how this whole bakery adventure started and it is how the bakery continues to grow; making bread without compromise on taste or health!

Bread is broken

Whilst adapting to a gluten free diet the thing we missed most was bread. We tried just about every available gluten free alternative on the market and everything disappointed on texture, nutrition and taste.

Finally we gave up on bread altogether, and in fact, when I opened my award-winning gluten free restaurant, Knife & Fork, I decided to not even offer bread on the menu!

 

It all started with a Sourdough loaf

Over the next few years, I set out on a mission to make tasty, nutritious gluten free bread that was not full of chemicals, preservatives & fresh air that dissolved in the mouth! It took years of hard work, playing with ingredients and blends and testing out countless recipes. But finally, I cracked it and developed the perfect sourdough. 100% gluten free without compromise, which tasted good and was healthy too!

What started as mission impossible was in fact the start of something much greater – The Bakery!  Testing the sourdough with my coeliac children, family and restaurant diners, a food critic picked up on how delicious it was, and having received such a great response and demand for the breads in the local area, The Bakery has since expanded to facilitate UK wide delivery.

Today, from our purpose- built bakery in Oxfordshire, we proudly offer a wide range of over 20 baked goods. From our original Sourdough, to our Chocolate & Hazelnut loaf & our Rosemary Focaccia, all our range is delicious, nutritious and developed with gut health in mind.

Deliciously Nutritious

I believe that eating gluten free whether by choice or due to coeliac disease, shouldn’t be a compromise. We only use the finest natural ingredients, which are packed full of goodness and nutritional benefits. All our products are 100% gluten free, nutritionally dense to include fibre and protein, and made with certified gluten free flour. I have created all of our special recipes and every batch is baked with pride by our expert team.  

Delivered fresh to your door

All our loaves are freshly baked to order, and delivered fresh to your door for you to enjoy.  Even though our bread is tasty enough for everyone to enjoy,  there is no need to worry about waste if you are the only gluten avoider in your household as our bakery range freezes perfectly.

I hope you think our products are as delicious as we do! 

Be happy, healthy and enjoy!
