Are you opening up a cafe and still deciding on the types of bread you want to use to prepare your meals? Do you want to make sure your cafe’s foods stand out among the rest? Well, keep reading to discover the three types of bread you should serve at your cafe!

Wholemeal Bread

Wholemeal bread is bread made from wholegrain, milled to a fine texture. Due to containing many different types of grain, wholemeal bread is high in dietary fibre and is also linked to reduced risk in a number of health conditions such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. Due to this, wholemeal bread is one of the healthiest bread options you can serve to your customers at your cafe.

An example of wholemeal bread is Soft Wholemeal Bread.

Sourdough Bread

Sourdough bread is uniquely slightly sour in taste, due to the way it has been fermented using lactobacillus and yeast (to produce lactic acid). In addition to being slightly sour, sourdough bread also acts as a prebiotic, meaning it helps to feed the ‘good bacteria’ in your intestines and improve your gut health. Sourdough also has a lower level of gluten than other forms of bread, making it a healthy alternative to bread such as white bread.

Rye Bread

Rye bread is another healthy bread you can serve at your cafe. It contains small amounts of micronutrients (such as zinc, magnesium, calcium and pantothenic acid) making it an all-rounder when it comes to nutritional value. Like wholemeal bread, rye bread is also relatively high in fibre levels, making it easier to digest and good for gut health. 

You can serve rye bread with typical brunch sides, as well as toasted and plain with simple spreads such as butter.

If you are stuck on which types of bread you should serve at your age, be sure to consider the above three options!
