Delicious breads, straight from our wood-fired oven
All Firebrand breads are hand-shaped and baked in our 1930's wood-fired oven, either in tins or directly on the brick floor of the oven. We use absolutely no yeast, sugar, fat, oil or improvers – just good, wholesome and natural ingredients.
All breads are made using one or more of the following LAUCKE flours: unbleached strong white flour, wholewheat flour, rye wholemeal.
Firebrand breads to complement every meal
While we do bake some of our breads every day, we appreciate that not everyone has the same taste and some prefer a different loaf, so we try to fit in as much variety as we can. If your favourite isn't shown here, take a look at our Daily Baking Schedule – it may be listed there. If it's not, and you REALLY crave for it get in contact with us, and we'll see what we can do to satisfy your yearning.
