I found a hole in my loaf of bread - why are there sometimes holes in the bread?

The Baker Organic breads are made in small batches rather than mass-produced like some of our competitors. Our baking processes create delicious, nutritious breads but not all the loaves look the same. Yeast can form bubbles of gas, creating an air pocket. This old dough process is what gives our products their distinct flavor.

Are The Baker Organic breads kosher?

Yes, The Baker Organic bread and the bakery itself are certified Kosher Parve by Star K kosher certification.

Are The Baker Organic breads vegan?

Yes, all of The Baker Organic breads are vegan.

What is spelt?

Spelt (Triticum spelta) is an ancient relative of wheat (Triticum aestivum). Spelt has a higher protein content than modern wheat. Spelt is also loaded with complex carbohydrates and is easier for many to digest than wheat. Spelt does contain its own spelt gluten, which is important for those that cannot tolerate gluten from any source.
