No, but all of our ingredients are 100% gluten free, and we bake in a dedicated kitchen that is only used to prepare gluten-free items.
We do our best to use organic ingredients as much as possible. When we are not using organic, we choose local, healthy, all-natural ingredients for each of our products.
No, our products never contain any kind of preservatives or additives. We choose only wholesome, all natural products for our breads and confections.
No, we do not use any soy or corn in any of our products.
Most of our products are made from a proprietary mix of flours. These flours include organic brown rice flour, organic millet flour, organic sorghum flour, coconut flour, organic tapioca flour, and arrowroot. We also use almond meal, flax meal, and certified gluten-free oats in some recipes.
Our motto when it comes to sugar is “less is better.” We believe that even baked goods can be made with very little sugar and still taste fantastic! Our main goal is to make healthy sweet treats for you. BREADS: Our breads contain no sugar, although sugar is required to make the yeast rise. However, once the yeast consumes the sugar, it is gone. We do not add any additional sugar. COOKIES, MINI SWEET BREADS, BROWNIES, AND GRANOLA: These products are lighly sweetened with one or more of the following: organic honey, organic coconut sugar, organic maple syrup, organic agave syrup, organic pure cane sugar, or organic brown sugar. CAKES AND CUPCAKES: We use confectioner’s sugar in the frosting on these products. CRACKERS: These contain no sugar or sweeteners.
All ingredients are clearly listed on each packaged product and under each item on our website.
We make every effort to put only wholesome, healthy ingredients into each of our products by drawing on our local products whenever possible. Additionally, we cut the fat and sugar as much as possible without compromising the taste, while using ingredients that promote good health including raw almonds, certified gluten-free whole oats, organic flax meal, and raw coconut – just to name a few.
We spent a lot of time experimenting in the kitchen in order to develop a recipe that is both unique and delicious. Unlike other granola blends, which consist primarily of oats, nuts, fruit, and a significant amount of sugar and oil, our cranberry nut granola is made with only natural and organic ingredients. We incorporate a balanced mix of whole grains, nuts, seeds, and organic dried cranberries. Furthermore, it contains no oil and just a touch of organic maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla. Our granola is perfect by itself, added to plain yogurt, or topped with your choice of milk. You’ll not only love the taste, but you will feel good after eating it too!
We take the time to handcraft each item by mixing our own flours and nuts and adding just the right amount of ingredients to give them that rich nutty flavor. Most of our sweet breads and cakes are vegan, using organic flax meal in place of eggs, organic almond milk, and honey or organic coconut sugar for sweetness.
We use minimal packaging for our products, just enough to keep them fresh and safe. For most products we use eco-friendly packaging that can either be reused or recycled. This is sometimes not possible, however, due to some stores’ requirements that products be sold in freezer-safe packaging.
If you don’t plan to eat your product within a week or so, you should refrigerate or freeze it. See the next FAQ for the shelf life of different products. NOTE: most products hold their freshness even when defrosted after they’ve previously been frozen. We suggest toasting or ovem-warming items that have previously been frozen.
