Welcome to BreadBeard, the very “Micro Bakery” that I run from my home in Torbay, South Devon.
I love to bake sourdough bread. Sourdough only contains 3 ingredients. Flour, water and salt. It really doesn’t get much more simple than that! Proper food made with love and care.
I bake once a week and loaves are ready for collection on Friday mornings, with delivery also available by bicycle (subject to location). I bake exclusively to order to avoid waste, with a typical waiting list of about a week.
I am not a supermarket or giant bread factory. All of my bread is made by hand, and as such, not all loaves look the same. Sourdough is a natural live culture that I encourage to grow by feeding and then making into dough. All of my loaves turn out slightly differently. This is part of the magic of hand-made sourdough. Each loaf is a unique character.
If you live in Torbay and you are interested in buying sourdough bread from me, email me at simon@breadbeard.co.uk and let me know what you would like.
Orders need to be received by 18:00 on Tuesday for bread to be ready on Friday
Thank you for dropping by…
Simon Darby
