Gardenia’s Atas Gourmet Selections Range Now Made With Sourdough That Are Healthier Instead

2020-11-25 , 11:15 am

Typically, when you visit the supermarket to buy bread, you have two main options to choose from: wholemeal and white.

In recent years, supermarkets have added hipster breads like Hokkaido Milk Toast, Multigrain, and California Raisin, but we’ve more or less stuck with the basics.

Soon, though, a new option is set to hit the shelves, and it’s going to taste very different to the bread you’re used to.

Gardenia’s Atas Gourmet Selections Range Now Made With Sourdough

Gardenia has announced its latest rebranding of the Gardenia Country Loaf range to the Gardenia Gourmet Selections Range.

The revamped range will feature nine products that will now be made with sourdough, a type of bread that has grown in popularity in recent years.

In addition to its unique flavour, some believe sourdough to be a healthier alternative to white or wholemeal bread.

According to Insider, while it has comparable nutrients, the lower phytate levels mean it is more digestible and nutritious. The prebiotics is also good for your gut bacteria, and it may be less likely to spike blood sugar levels.

Here are the nine products on offer:

1. Purple Wheat, Spelt & Quinoa Country Loaf ($4.20)

Made from a blend of heritage grains–spelt, quinoa, and purple wheat, as well as olive oil, flaxseeds, and sunflower seed.

2. Multigrain Country Loaf 330g ($3.60)

Made with 8 types of grains–oat, sunflower seed, linseed, soya grit, corn grit, millet, sesame, and wheat germ.

3. Light Wholemeal Loaf 330g($3.60)

Made with unbleached wheat flour, fermented sourdough, wholemeal wheat flour, and malted flour.

4. Walnut Country Loaf ($3.60)

Packed with crunchy walnuts, sunflower seeds and linseeds.

5. Savoury Turmeric & Corn Panini ($2.70)

Made from a special blend of turmeric mix and savoury maize, olive oil and dried wheat sourdough.

6. Mediterranean Panini ($2.40)

Flat, rectangular-shaped bread made with wheat flour.

7. Ciabatta 200g ($2.40)
