Enjoying a firm position at the forefront of German culture, bread is often the first food ditched by Australians hoping to lose weight. Its reputation is hampered by the breads we’ve come to know in chain bakeries and supermarkets: loaves made from heavily processed white flour with minimal nutrients. We Aussies, though, are maturing, reassessing our lifestyles and changing the status quo where better alternatives exist. Our relationship with bread is due for a review.
Studies show the smell of fresh bread makes us feel kinder toward others. Customers who enjoy bread from Bütterken Bakery stretch this goodwill further, extending kindness to themselves. It’s time to change your perception of bread and discover the Bütterken difference.
Artisan bread at Bütterken Bakery is real, made with Peninsula and organic ingredients. There are no fillers or additives in these products. Owners Anita and Hendrik know that close attention to the fermentation process improves the digestibility of bread. Their customers are convinced, remarking how much better they feel after eating the bakery’s bread.
All products are made fresh on the premises and can be enjoyed at street front tables or in the gorgeous light-filled covered courtyard at the rear, where windows reveal bakers at work. Try traditional pretzels, sugar pretzels, wheat sourdough, 100 per cent rye sourdough, schwarzbrot (German black bread), seasonal fruit crumbles, bee stings, rolls filled with fresh ingredients, and the popular pizza-like dinnele. Holiday treats include stollen and gingerbread at Christmas and hot cross buns at Easter.
Let Bütterken Bakery look after you.
