Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our bread, process, and ordering
About Our Bread
Is your bread certified gluten-free?
Yes. All our bread is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility and certified gluten-free. However, if you have celiac disease, we recommend consulting your doctor before trying any new products.
How long does the bread stay fresh?
Because we use no preservatives, our bread is best within 3-4 days at room temperature. You can freeze it for up to 3 months. Toast slices directly from frozen for best results.
Can I freeze the bread?
Absolutely. Slice the bread first, then freeze in an airtight bag. Toast individual slices as needed. This actually works great because the bread toasts beautifully from frozen.
Why is it more expensive than store-bought gluten-free bread?
48-72 hours of fermentation. Organic whole grains. Hand-mixed and shaped. No fillers or gums. Real ingredients and real time cost more than industrial shortcuts — but the difference in taste and how you feel is worth it.
Fermentation & Health
What makes fermented bread better for digestion?
Long fermentation breaks down complex starches and proteins that can be hard to digest. Wild cultures create organic acids and beneficial compounds that support gut health. The result is bread that's easier on your system.
Is fermented bread probiotic?
The baking process kills live cultures, so our bread isn't probiotic. However, fermentation creates prebiotics (food for beneficial bacteria) and other compounds that support your microbiome.
Will this bread spike my blood sugar?
Fermentation lowers the glycemic response compared to non-fermented bread. However, everyone's body is different. If you're managing blood sugar, monitor how you respond and consult your healthcare provider.
What are the health benefits?
We focus on how bread is made, not health claims. Long fermentation improves digestibility, reduces anti-nutrients, and creates beneficial compounds. Many people report feeling better after switching from industrial bread, but results vary.

Ingredients & Allergies
What are the main ingredients?
Our bread contains: organic buckwheat/sorghum/quinoa flour, water, sea salt, and wild sourdough starter. That's it. No gums, starches, or fillers.
Is your bread vegan?
Yes. All our bread is 100% plant-based. No eggs, dairy, or animal products.
Do you use organic ingredients?
Yes. We source organic, non-GMO grains whenever possible. Quality ingredients make a difference in both taste and nutrition.
Are there nuts in your bread?
Our seed bread contains sunflower and pumpkin seeds. All products are made in the same facility, so trace cross-contact is possible. If you have severe allergies, please contact us before ordering.
Storage & Usage
How should I store the bread?
Room temperature in a bread box or paper bag for 3-4 days. Refrigeration makes it stale faster. For longer storage, slice and freeze.
Why does the bread feel dense?
Our bread has a hearty, European-style crumb — similar to traditional sourdough. It's not light and fluffy like industrial bread. This density comes from whole grains and natural fermentation, not added air or gums.
How should I serve it?
Toast it. The bread is designed to toast beautifully — the crust crisps, the interior stays moist, and the flavors develop. Also great for sandwiches, avocado toast, or alongside soup.
Can I use it for sandwiches?
Absolutely. The dense structure holds up well to spreads and fillings. Try toasting it first for extra structure and flavor.
