Why REEF

Common questions about REEF bread, answered.

What makes REEF bread different?

Each loaf has a distinctive square shape that is easy to roll and twist, and a pattern of engravings that spreads heat evenly while it bakes.

The loaf is medium-sized and very thin, so it works well for wraps, and the square shape means nothing is wasted.

Unlike regular bread, REEF bread can be kept in the freezer for up to six months. Leave it at room temperature for about 50 seconds and it is fresh again.

How many calories are in a loaf?

What makes it healthy?

Regular white bread is made from highly refined flour, which means more calories and less fibre. REEF bread uses whole wheat, which keeps the vitamins, minerals, protein and antioxidants of the whole grain.

We use natural yeast, which gives a better taste and texture than commercial yeast.

There are no additives: no sugar and no preservatives. The flavours and colours are those of the grains themselves.

The bread is cholesterol-free: it is made without trans fat and baked without oil.

It contains no dairy, so it suits vegans, and no eggs. Breads without almond flour contain no nuts.

What are the benefits?

Fibre helps you feel full sooner and for longer, which can help with weight control.

A diet low in sugar and refined carbohydrates is widely recommended, especially for people with diabetes. Whole grain bread can be part of it.

With natural ingredients and no preservatives, REEF bread also suits children.

How is REEF bread sustainable?

Our production lines are fully automated and consume less electricity. We bake with natural gas only, and we keep reducing production waste.

Is it suitable for a gluten-free diet?

No. All REEF bread contains wheat. Our brown rice bread is low in gluten but not gluten-free, so it is not suitable for people with coeliac disease.

What can I make with it?

Wraps, sandwiches, lunch boxes and even desserts. Our recipe videos show a few ideas.
