Secrets of Our Clean-Label Process

At Leaven & Companions, we believe the best bread needs no shortcuts - just time, craft, and responsibly sourced, natural ingredients. While many bakeries rely on artificial additives to extend shelf life, we take a different approach.

The Secret? Time & Technique
Instead of chemical enhancers, we use time, fermentation, proofing, and careful temperature control to build deep flavor and a naturally longer shelf life. Our doughs rest for enough time to allow enzymes to develop the flavor of the flour naturally... creating superior texture, aroma, and digestibility.

Natural Ingredients, No Compromises
We bake with real butter, whole eggs, whole milk, and pure honey - never substitutes. Our flour? And when it comes to flour, we trust only the best. That’s why we use King Arthur Flour, prized by chefs, bakeries, and culinary schools for its consistency and performance. Milled from the finest American wheat, it’s unbleached, unbromated, and versatile - strong enough for bread, yet gentle enough for delicate pastries.

Baked Fresh, Delivered Daily
Because we never use additives, we bake through the night and deliver every morning, ensuring you receive the freshest, cleanest, most flavorful bread possible.
