Which Bread To Stock?

[lpellegr]

A small natural food store near me is moving to a larger space and wants to expand their gluten-free selections, but won't be able to carry a big variety. If you could have just one brand of gluten-free bread available, which would it be and why? I'll pass the results on to the owner. I don't eat much bread myself and usually make it myself when I do or use Whole Foods', so I wasn't much help to her. And would you buy frozen gluten-free french bread pizzas? I make them and freeze them for myself and thought of offering to make them for her store. They are crunchy and awesome, using Bette Hagman's rapid-rise french bread recipe, but they have to be warmed in the oven, not the microwave. I top the halved bread with sauce and cheese, vacuum seal it, and freeze.

These are the best gluten-free brand names breads in my opinion:

Kinnikinnick Sandwick bread

Kinnikinnick Italian white bread

Sterks Sandwich bread

I agree Kinnikinnick Sandwick bread is a good choice.

I also really like Food for Life Brown Rice Bread. I suggest that they do not freeze it, if possible. I like to buy it fresh and then freeze it myself. I separate 2 slices at a time with foil, and then freeze it. The slices are really hard to separate once the bread is frozen.

The pizza idea might work. I

I've never had Kinnikinnik (doesn't seem to be big the Northeast), but my vote goes strongly to Gillian's French Rolls. Can be used as rolls, sandwich bread, hamburger buns, english muffins, and the taste is far and away the best I have found. I can't buy them fast enough. Oh, and they're Casein-free too, so great for a variety of customers.
