Some serious facts about Great Harvest breads |
|
Our signature bread is Honey Whole Wheat. Made from the whole wheat kernel,
Which is ground fresh in our bakery daily, our wheat bread contains just five ingredients:
Water, yeast, whole grain flour, salt, and a little honey. No fats, no preservatives.
None of our breads or sweets contain preservatives. Many have no fats, or are low in fat.
All of our baked products are trans-fat free.
Because many of our breads are made from whole grain, which includes the
“bran”,
they are higher in fiber than other breads,
as well as containing more vitamins and nutrients.
Government guidelines for good nutrition indicate that a full 50% of your grain choices
should be whole grain. Great Harvest breads help you meet that goal with great taste!
Many people with special dietary needs, including those suffering from diabetes and heart related issues,
find our breads a beneficial part of their diet. Whole grains also satisfy hunger,
so “dieters” can enjoy many of our breads, too!
We will happily provide more specific nutrition facts about any of our breads.

Ingredients |
| Honey Whole Wheat |
Fresh ground wheat flour gets mixed with water, pure honey, yeast and salt for the nutty wheat taste that made us famous. We take each made-from-scratch loaf, knead it by hand, and add a beautiful design and a light honey wash. You can taste the difference these special steps make. Our signature bread is perfect for family meals morning, noon and night, and also makes a wonderful hostess or thank-you gift with one of our whipped butters or fruit spreads. |

Ever wonder what the nine grains
are? We take fresh ground, high protein, whole wheat flour, barley, hulled
