free, satisfyingly chewy and truly delicious. They are also unsweetened, which makes them a splendid choice. Both breads are great for breakfast or lunch or served as a dinner roll. Suggestion: warm a Wholegrain Mini Baguette in the microwave and in seconds you can make your own “mini-sub” with your favourite filling. You will find them in the freezer case in all well-stocked grocery stores. Nutritional information and hypersensitivity charts are available on our website under “Products.” |
