Thanks - I think this may be the ones we buy - should keep an eye out for the white bread one (the website isn't working at the moment!) :)

Hi there,
The only white bread with no soya that I have found are those baguettes that you need to bake in the oven yourself from Tesco. They come in a pack of 4 but my LO loves them.
Otherwise, we get her the Golden Wholemeal bread from Marks and Spencers (but it's not white), crumpets or some of the wraps, like Mission Deli. I think there are some pitta breads that are soy free but they vary so much from supermarket to supermarket that I can't remember the ones we got (we haven't bought them for ages).
And when we are in the mood, we use the breadmaker!

Thanks for that - also recently discovered that most bagels seem to be soya free but just want a change for him!  Will keep my eyes peeled for those baguettes :o)

ps thanks for reminding me there are wraps in the freezer for DS!!

Thanks - the morrisons part-baked rolls are also soy free.  No Co-op near us, unfortunately :(

 Nah, its all good. I'm going to get a loaf and just use it for Dylan for toast. I'll store it in the freezer and just toast it as I need it.  :)  I was dreading having a constant supply of bagels in the house again purely for the fact that I love them and end up eating them myself drenched in butter. Not good for expanding waistline.  :P

Hi, I don't know if it helps but I work in a bakery.  Soya flour is sometimes used in improvers but not always.  Improvers are used to help keep bread soft.  It might be worth trying Aldi; I know, sounds strange but at the moment a lot of smaller bakeries produce for Aldi and they will produce products to different recipes to big plant bakers and may use soya free improvers for some of their recipes (although soya will be used in some products they produce).  Alternatively, I can't suggest enough that you try making your own.  Yes, it's a hassle but you don't have to do it every day and if you make it using a sponge method it tastes blooming fantastic!
Here's my blog which is focussed on simple food for babies, toddlers and families http://mamacook.blogspot.com/

Back again, they have sodding changed it, to bakersoft 'bit of both' with soya. I nearly had a breakdown in the tesco aisle today lol. However i have found a lead online.

"If you are looking for any soya free bread in the UK then i have found a few - a Crusty farmhouse white sliced loaf from M&S and the White & Wholemeal sliced from Waitrose. "

Guess where im going tomorrow. :D

I never managed to find that bakersoft one - but how annoying they have changed it!!!

We tend to just use Wright's and supermarket (Asda and Tesco, i think) own make bread mixes which you add water to and throw into bread machine - Hovis version has soya

bread machine bread is awful :( thick, small horrible loaves. :(

I did actually bake my own loaves a few years ago, after 10 attempts i mastered it, looked identicle to bakers bread, but i still cant get on with the taste. Tried lots of things, must be something in the bread improvers.



Not bad for an amateur eh :) Alot of work for 1 loaf mind.
