"Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness." Isaiah 55:2 KJV
Do you read ingredient labels? Maybe you have an allergy or want to avoid some specific thing .... or just wonder, what is in this thing I am eating? I don't know about you, but I have been horrified at the ingredients in some of the things I feed my body. Ingredients I can't even pronounce, let alone tell you what they actually are!!
This is why Maple Leaf Baking Co. is passionate about REAL ingredients.
One of the biggest problems I see in the baking industry is the constant pressure to compromise in ingredients. In the effort to make their baked items affordable to their customers and still make a profit, they choose to buy the cheapest ingredients. Unfortunately those cheap ingredients are cheap for a reason. They are not real, full of preservatives, artificial flavorings, fillers and who knows what else!!
The hard part is that the good ingredients cost so much more! It doesn't take much to realize that organic unbleached stone ground flour costs a lot more than the cheap bleached white flour at Walmart. Rich grass fed Irish butter costs nearly double what the fake Imperial Margarine costs. It's no wonder that bakeries are compromising in this area.
But these fake ingredients are hurting you in the long run.
You and I love baked treats and it is fun to indulge ... so we tend to turn a blind eye to the ingredient list. Sometimes its fine, sometimes we feel a little sick and most of the time we regret our decision after the first couple of bites. But what happens? We eat it anyways. We are not going to waste the money when groceries are so high these days! In the long run however, this decision effects us in ways we don't even realize. It effects our health, leads to allergies as our body reacts to the chemicals and preservatives, and makes us passive to feeding our bodies right. We have grown to accept the compromises and think that if we want to indulge in bakery treats, we just have to ignore the ingredients they use.
But it shouldn't be that way!!
The vision of Maple Leaf Baking Co. is to change that for you. I want you to know that every baked item you eat from my kitchen is made with the best ingredients I can find. You never have to wonder what kind of added preservatives or harsh chemicals are being masked in your baked goods. And you can rest assured that indulging in my sweet treats is NOT going to have harmful side effects on your health.
The baked goods you buy from Maple Leaf Baking Co. taste good and are good for you. I make it my mission to give you the best possible baked goods with real ingredients as God intended them to be ... never compromising.
Stop buying the fake stuff. And buy REAL bread!
