In order to deliver the freshest bread, we have partnered up with various local bakeries. See below to find out where your bread comes from:Roberts Bakery
The best before date marks when your bread is at peak quality. After it, the bread is often still perfectly enjoyable - refresh, toast, freeze, or use it in a recipe.
Store bread at room temperature, never the fridge - cold actually speeds up staling. A bread bin, cotton bread bag or cool, dry cupboard is best.If you won't finish the loaf in time, slice and freeze it on the day it arrives (toasting from frozen works brilliantly and avoids waste - lots of customers do this with our sliced sourdough). For best freezing results, wrap in parchment, foil, or freezer bags to prevent freezer burn, and label with the date; most bakery items are best within three months. To serve, thaw at room temperature or toast straight from frozen.If a loaf has gone a little stale, splash it with water and pop it in a hot oven (180°C) for 5–8 minutes for a warm, crunchy crust.For more tips, see our blog.
