Gene's Breads

About Taste the Comfort of Homemade Goodness! Enjoy home-style artisan breads designed and handcrafted to ensure a flavorful experience. Each bread formula is the result of 60 years of experience baking bre ... ad. Every grain of flour is stone ground from organic, locally grown wheat at the Lindley Mill in Graham, N.C. All ingredients are fresh and natural, with no added chemicals or enhancers. Never willing to compromise flavor, Gene keeps a record of every loaf of bread he makes to guarantee great taste. Like a good wine, the process of bread making involves using the best ingredients and controlling the process of fermentation. Temperature control is the key to slowing down fermentation and allowing the wheat gluten to fully develop a robust flavor. Each loaf of bread requires a minimum of five hours from mixing to pulling it from the gas fired oven. Taste and see! You can buy our bread at The Side Street Bakery in downtown Southport, or come see us Wednesdays 8-1 at the Southport Farmers' Market, and Mondays 7-1 at the Oak Island Farmers' Market! See More
