One of their products is an umami mushroom sauce, perfect for adding flavor to vegetarian dishes. The sauce is made from mushrooms from a sustainable Danish farm.

What’s your favorite #beverage #innovation? Coffee Leaf Tea is a must try! The flavor is loveley and requires no sweetener because there is no bitterness. The caffeine level is gentle, but can elevate your day. More antioxidants than matcha. Plus, an incredible social mission (year round revenue for coffee farmers instead of 1/3 of the year, hello!) and environmental impact (a co-harvest that is 100% #upcycled and reduces ag waste). Come try it today at #IFTFIRST at the Westrock Coffee Company booth with two flavors on tap, classic cold brew and piña colada nitro.

Breaking Bread: Disrupting Bread Buying and Eating Habits 🍞 We're on a mission to reshape the way bread is perceived and consumed in the UK. Bread has changed a lot over time: starting with natural fermentation centuries ago, moving to the artisanal, unprocessed dough of the pre-industrial era, and now to the factory-produced loaves we have today. As Brits, we're used to industrial bread, finding comfort in its sweeter taste and softer texture. So, here’s the question: Can we disrupt one of the oldest, heavily industrialised food categories despite these ingrained preferences? 🌾✨   We've seen how other innovative companies have changed people's perceptions of certain food items and categories. For example, byRuby has elevated the frozen food category, and Bold Bean Co has transformed how beans are perceived.   Our approach challenges industrial bread norms with ingredient transparency, sustainable practices across the supply chain, and consumer education.   𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐖𝐄 𝐆𝐎 𝐀𝐆𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐈𝐍:   💡𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: We challenge the notion of bread as a bland and unhealthy staple. At Good in Bread, we align with the values of Chris Young and the Real Bread Movement (Sustain: The alliance for better food and farming), advocating for bread to be made without additives and commercial yeast. Our focus on artisanal sourdough celebrates craftsmanship and quality, embodying the campaign's commitment to traditional baking methods and transparency.   🌱𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐈𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 & 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: Our commitment to organic ingredients sets us apart, bringing organic ingredients to the forefront. While organic flour may not be top of mind, we believe it's just as important as organic meat and dairy products when it comes to caring for our planet and respecting proper harvesting practices (see our post on sustainability).   📦𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲: We defy convention by delivering directly to your door using eco-friendly shipping methods, ensuring a convenience that supermarkets and other bakeries can't match. So, what do you think? Can we redefine the future of a centuries-old industry?   #SourdoughRevolution #ArtisanBread #RealBreadCampaign
