Sourdough breads

Dench Bakers are one of the few bakers in Melbourne offering a full organic sourdough bread. 

Our flagship range, all Dench sourdoughs are handmade, using organic flours from boutique Australian family mills. Made using the traditional method with our own unique sourdough leaven, these breads are delicately sour, moderately dense and have great texture and flavour.

 

Grain Loaf - 500g/700g
One of our most popular loaves. A mix of certified organic stone ground, wholemeal and white wheat flours blended with linseed and sunflower kernels. All wrapped up in sesame seeds.

Superseed Tin Loaf - 850g
A 9 seed and grain blend of rye, barley, maize, mung bean, linseed, millet, roasted buckwheat, poppy and sesame seeds.

Light Rye - 700g
Made with organic stoneground unbleached rye and wheat flours. Only 30% rye this loaf is a great sandwich loaf without being too dense. We do a 100% Rye - Schwarzbrot - if you are looking for more intense flavour.
