STORY: Speciality Breads goes sesame free

Kent-based Speciality Breads has announced that both of its bakeries are to become sesame free.  This follows the removal of nuts from the business last year.   

Simon Cannell, managing director of Speciality Breads, said: “The hospitality industry has actively embraced the need to control the handling of allergens. We go one step further and remove allergens entirely wherever possible.  …Caterers throughout the land need to have complete trust in their suppliers and we are pleased to give absolute assurance that our breads, frozen doughs and sweet bakes are completely free from nuts and sesame.”      

He added: “We remain artisan bakers by trade so our first duty is to the quality of our traditional breads – we only use 100% British wheat flour and our rapeseed oil is 100% British as well.”

Last year, Speciality Breads worked with The Vegan Society to register over 60 of their breads and frozen doughs and proudly displays the coveted trademark of the organisation.
