Gold

Between them, the loaves were awarded 12 prizes at the Scottish Bread Championship 2024

Balcaskie Sourdough

1kg tin £5.45, 600g tin £4.80

This 90% wholemeal loaf is made mostly with wholemeal Balcaskie Landrace wheat flour, a heritage landrace wheat from Scotland The Bread, grown and milled in Fife. The wheats in this mixture were varieties grown in Scotland 200 years ago, before the most recent ‘yield-only’ crop selection took place. This is a flavourful loaf that won Gold for ‘a loaf baked for nutritional qualities’ at this year’s Scottish Bread Championship. The remainder of the flour is organic wheat flour from Mungoswells in East Lothian

Grainy Sourdough

1kg tin £5.55, 600g round £4.85
