Meet our Ancient Grains

At Lovingly Artisan, we are a bit obsessed with what goes into your loaf. We have always believed that read bread should do more than fill a sandwich – it should feed the soul, nourish the body and make your taste buds dance a little jig.

Say hello to Einkorn and Emmer

And nothing does this better than some of our oldest friends. Meet Einkorn and Emmer. If you haven’t met these yet, we call these “ancient grains”. They aren’t just old school, they are the original school. They are the great, great, great (great) grandparents of modern grain. While modern grain has been bred for high yield (at the expense of your poor tummy) einkorn and emmer have remained unchanged for millennia.

So why are we so smitten with ancient grains?

They are kind to the tummy because the grain hasn’t been modified; their gluten structure is simpler, making them easier to digest. Emmer and Einkorn are powerhouse flavours. Our emmer and kombucha loaf boasts a deep, nutty flavour and a rich, moist texture that modern wheat could only dream of.

They are nutritional heavyweights; they naturally contain more vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They are basically loaf-shaped multivitamins you can slather with butter and jam. These “tall straw” varieties are as kind to the earth as they are to your health.

These loaves are crafted to be the centrepiece of your family table. They travel beautifully through the week, making the ultimate toast for those “I can’t quite wait for dinner moments.

If you haven’t explored our heritage range yet, now is a beautiful time to do so. Pop by our bakery or shops at Altrincham to taste the range. Too far away, that’s no problem, order it online for delivery right to your door

You never know your next favourite loaf might be an old soul!
