About the loaf
Producing tasty, largely additive-free, hand-made food is the most important function of what we do. The dominance of supermarkets in food retailing has educated people to rate cheap prices over taste and quality in the food they buy. the loaf is part of the growing movement of local producers determined to reignite people’s interest in good-quality, well produced, additive-free food at a fair price.
The UK hasn't been famous for great bread. Though we eat a lot of it, many people in the UK think that the sign of good bread is its ability to stay soft and fluffy for days on end. They are largely unaware of the number of additives, dough improvers and preservatives that go in to factory produced bread. They are also unaware of the huge energy costs that go in to mass-produced bread.
This is changing as more bakers return to hand-crafted, traditional baking methods. the loaf specialises in long-fermentation breads where taste is the most important factor. Providing customers with a changing range of fresh and exciting breads six days a week is at the core of the business.
Healthy bread at the loaf
If you have ever wondered how healthy bread at the loaf is, then I have written this blog entry in response to a recent newspaper article. I aim to highlight just how healthy the bread we bake is. In essence, all you need to know is that our bread is deliciously tasty, very digestible and 100% additive-free.
the loaf in Crich
the loaf is physically at the heart of the village but we would like it to be at the emotional heart too. To achieve this, we strive to be at the hub of village life. The café provides a place for people to meet and socialise. It is a warm, busy and welcoming place to spend some time. We work closely with other businesses and organisations in the village. For example, we have an active role in the work of Crich Junior School's food for life project.
