Our Wildfarmed White Sourdough has won Gold at ’sBestLoaf 2026.

This loaf means a lot to us. We launched it almost two years ago and it’s quickly become one of our most loved loaves. A blend of regenerative flour, dark rye, spelt wholemeal and emmer, with a soft, tangy crumb and a depth of flavour that’s hard to find in a classic white sourdough. The flour is grown in a way that increases biodiversity, restores soil health, minimises water pollution and reduces carbon. The kind of bread made with the land and the people eating it in mind.

Seeing it recognised this way is genuinely special.

Thank you to for awarding this loaf a Gold medal.

The hot cross bun has its roots in 1361, when a monk at St Albans baked a spiced bun, pressed a cross into it, and shared it on Good Friday. Ours are made with grains of paradise, layered with warm spice, three kinds of fruit and candied orange peel.

Baked fresh everyday and available until 12th April.

This week we’re celebrating Week the way we always do: by baking real bread.
 
Today, we’re taking you behind the scenes of how we make our beautiful focaccia; a firm customer favourite that needs no introduction.
 
For us, Real Bread means real standards:
Good flour. 
Water. 
Salt and Time.
Long fermentation.
No additives.
 
We’ve been perfecting our focaccia for years; refining hydration, improving flour quality and giving the dough the slow fermentation it needs to develop its distinctive flavour and structure.
 
Each tray begins with regenerative flour and a slow prove.
Hand-pressed.
Finished with olive oil, sea salt and rosemary.
Baked until golden - crisp on the outside, and soft within.
Good ingredients and bread made to the standards our customers expect every day.

Good bread starts in the soil.

We’ve been baking high quality breads for 30 years, but we can’t make better bread without better farming.

Intensive agriculture has depleted soils and left us with grains that have less flavour and nutrition. We want to change that.

In 2025, 1 in 5 of our loaves (over 2 millions breads) were made from Soil Positive flour; grains grown by farmers we work with directly, using practices that rebuild soil health.

Happy National Croissant Day.

At The Bread Factory, sourdough and bread are at the heart of what we do. But when it comes to classics, the croissant is right there with the best of them.

We have been making croissants since day one, serving some of the best cafés and hotels across London since the 90s. That experience shows in the bake. Full of butter, with layers upon layers of delicate pastry, baked until golden, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, with that unmistakable flaky bite.

Simple, timeless, and done the right way.

November has been special.

- We launched our Christmas range, and the response to our new additions, alongside our classic mince pies, has been remarkable.

- We carried our Soil Positive mission forward, supporting farmers who grow diverse, soil positive grains and baking in a way that gives back to the land and strengthens our food system. Our ciabatta and plant based buns are a reflection of that commitment.

- We were proud to support some of the UK’s best chefs and restaurants with their recent openings. Congratulations to Matt Abe at Bonheur, the team at Legado led by Nieves, and the Corenucopia team by Clare Smyth on their outstanding launches. It’s inspiring to see so many amazing new restaurants in London, and we’re thrilled to play a part in that.

More exciting things to come.

We stopped by this week for their much-loved classics, the wagyu burger and the lobster roll. Both were incredible. The bun looked and tasted spot on. Always great to see our work bringing a little extra to the plate.
