Our rule for what we offer in our range is simple; only products that use high quality ingredients, can be hand-crafted and taste amazing make it through.

Since the first loaf was baked at our new facilities in August 2018, our Master Artisan Baker, Dylan has been hand-crafting the finest baked goods, using the highest quality ingredients, free from additives and preservatives; as well as supporting young people with severe autism through our specialist training programme. 

Currently you can find the following products by Bread & Beyond, but we can also bake items on request. So if you're interested in becoming a stockist but your customer's taste buds are tingling for something different then get in touch.

Artisan Bread

Artisan /'a:tizan, a:ti'zan/: a craftsperson trained to the highest ability; a worker in a skilled trade, especially one that involves making things by hand.

Oxford English Dictionary

Wholemeal brown and soft white rolls - perfect for dipping into soup on a cold day or tear and enjoy with a cheese board.

Multigrain Malthouse - A classic English loaf using a mix of flours with that distinctive nutty taste. Great for the dinner table, dipped into olive oil or with a strong cheese.

Sourdough - white or rye and stoneground - The starter (pre-ferment) is what gives a sourdough its distinctive taste and ours is fermented on site by our Master Baker, Dylan. Available as both a loaf or rolls, our sourdough is  unique to Bread & Beyond and a favourite among our staff.

Traditional white and wholemeal loaves - perfect for toasting and sandwiches. 

 

Speciality Bread

Olive flute - an artisan bread bulk fermented for 2 hours containing a 25% mix of black and green olives.

Focaccia - A traditional Italian bread, quite flat and usually round or square-shaped, ours is baked in a branded wooden box. It has an almost cake-like texture and is infused with herbs and topped with rosemary from our staff’s garden and flaked sea salt. 

Oat & barley - 25% sour with barley wheat and oats in a small bloomer shape. Bulk fermented for 2 hours.

Dark sour multigrain - 25% sour Boule’ brimming with multigrain seeds such as pumpkin and sunflower. The 2 hours bulk fermentation pulls the goodness from the seeds making it a healthier option.

Who doesn't love tearing off a piece of soft bread and dipping it in your favourite oil or vinegar. Or just simply adding a bit of butter and a twist of rock salt. Our Master Baker has designed two 'pull-apart loaves' for just this:

Cheese & onion - a firm favourite with a strong taste.

Tomato - pretend you're in the Mediterranean and dip away.

 

Sweet Treats

Chocolate chip shortbread - dip in your afternoon tea.

Cinnamon whirls - known for its medicinal properties for thousands of years, cinnamon gives these whirls a unique flavour. Enjoy for breakfast or a dessert.

Muffins - a choice of lemon and poppyseed, chocolate chip with a hint of vanilla or double choc chip.
