Mexico’s Grupo Bimbo has announced the launch of a sourdough-based bread range which uses “natural ingredients”.
The Rustik Bakery range will launch across Spain. It is available in three variants, Sourdough; Sourdough and Cereals; and Sourdough and Olives. The range is available in half-loaf formats.
Bimbo said the new range is made using a “traditional process based on the use of natural ingredients” including slow kneading and long fermentation.
“As a result, the bread acquires a spongy texture, great taste and appetising aroma. Moreover, this development helps to preserve the bread for longer,” a statement announcing the launch read.
The three varieties in the Rustik Bakery range are priced at between EUR1.79 and EUR1.89.
