"Bread has always been a big part of my life, with my parents both baking at home. When I was growing up my brothers and I ate toast, toast and more toast!"
— Alex Gooch, Founder & Baker






Delicious bread fresh from our shop

The story of a local artisan baker
Over the years Alex has won multiple awards and grown his '1 man bakery' into a complete team of dedicated bakers and delivery drivers employing around 20 staff including family members. His bread and pastries are of the highest quality being skilfully crafted in traditional ways using organic ingredients where possible.
Our team bake 6 days a week using a long fermentation process encouraging pre-digestion of the grains to deliver nutritious and delicious, fresh bread and pastries. Once complete we deliver daily to markets, delis, hotels, restaurants and Waitrose stores across Wales and England as well as to our own shop in Pontcanna, Cardiff (open Wednesday to Saturday).

​

​
We make a wide range of products including 100% rye sourdoughs, mixed grain sourdoughs, heritage grain sourdoughs, ciabatta, 100% spelt, challah burger buns and pastries, as well as bespoke loaves for anyone who asks - we love a challenge!
​
What goes into our multi-award-winning bread?
ONLY THE BEST, SUSTAINABLE, INGREDIENTS
All of the ingredients used are carefully selected by the team at the bakery working closely with suppliers to maintain sustainable farming. We are fundamentally against the routine spraying of crops so it has taken time and dedication to source these special ingredients.
​
Provenance is extremely important. Only the best ingredients are used in our bread and pastry recipes. This is why we work so closely with a core list of dedicated suppliers that help deliver our multi-award-winning hand-baked bread.
