Established in 1983 Burns the Bread has steadily expanded into the successful Family Business you see today with three generations of the Burns family at the helm. With seven shops and our fantastic School of Baking, we are hard at work perfecting our trade and making sure our customers leave our shops a little bit happier than when they came in. Being an integral part of Glastonbury’s rich heritage for the past 30 years, we now look to the forward to the excitement of where the next 30 years will take us.
Multi-Seed, French Grain, Honey and Spelt Bread, these are just a few of the delicious speciality loaves we make. With carefully selected flour from family-run mills, our bread has people coming from far and wide to sample our perfectly proved loaves.
Our white bread is made using traditional fermentation methods, giving it a good flavour and keeping qualities.
Wholemeal bread made using organic ingredients, the flour being grown and milled by our independent millers in the Cotswolds.
A very popular malted grain bread, full of flavour and goodness. (referred to by some as ‘that bread made from horses chaff!!!’)
A blend of English and French flours, with the addition of a unique combination of grains that gives this very popular bread a distinctive flavour.
There are multi-seed loaves of bread, and there is Burns The Bread multi-seed bread. What makes ours so distinctive? Perhaps it’s the inclusion of our natural rye sour, that has been gently ‘bubbling away for years – or the slow overnight proving.
Using a superb blend of Wheat Flour and Rye Flour this Rye loaf is packed with fibre that will keep your appetite satisfied for much longer.
One tablespoon of Chia Seeds contains more calcium than a glass of milk, more omega 3 and more antioxidants than salmon. Chia seeds will give you lots of energy but won’t keep you awake at night.
A bread made from white flour blended with maize and corn niblets creates a delicious loaf with a crunchy corn topping. The perfect bread to compliment any meal.
Our Spelt Bread and Rolls continue to become increasingly popular especially for those that find they have a wheat intolerance. With an almost nutty flavour, this bread has become a permanent staple of our artisan bread line.
Our delicious Spelt Loaf with added Mmmmmmm! This loaf is extremely popular, with added seeds and honey this loaf is a perfect accompaniment for sweet and savoury dishes alike.
A delicious loaf with a unique blend of carefully chosen flours finished off with a generous dose of cranberries and beautiful walnuts. Gorgeous topped with your favourite jams or chutneys!
