Fresh gluten free bread delivered to your door!

We are very excited to announce that you can now order fresh bread from our website! We have sourced some fantastic gluten free bread from a small bakery in Melbourne, Knead Bakers. The bread is lovingly hand-made in true artisan style. Each loaf weighs 750g, so is larger than most brands of gluten free bread available in supermarkets. Prices range from $6 to $7.50.

Choose from seven different varieties:
· Plain white loaf
· Olive and rosemary
· Fig and walnut
· Seeded loaf
· Sourdough
· Cornbread
· Buckwheat soda bread

The baker at Knead, Angela, is an experienced pastry chef who worked in London for four years with one of the world’s top pasty chefs. She started making gluten free bread based on demand from customers and has spent time perfecting the loaves. Knead have also consulted a local naturopath to make sure that the bread suits a variety of dietary needs.

Ordering information:
You will need to place your order for bread with us by 12 noon each Friday. We pick up the freshly baked bread each Monday morning and send it to you via courier or Australia Post. Most customers should receive the bread within one to three days. The bread keeps well for 7 days, however we recommend putting in the freezer as soon as possible.
