I was so disappointed when my red river multigrain was no longer available, but found it somewhere else in the same packaging. I bought 2 loaves. It was awful, dry and hard. The boys have to figure out what's wrong. I won't be buying any more and 5he loaves are in the garbage.
FYI. They're closed. I guess they couldn't bother updating their website or Google business listing. Luckily there's plenty of other bakeries to buy from. I won't bother wasting my time coming back here.
Edit: If you're in the area be sure to check out Sleepy Owl Bread. They're just around the corner and have excellent fresh bread. I found them because of this inconvenience by Kub, so thanks to Kub bakery for helping me find a decent bakery.
After the original owners closed we spent months trying to find anything that resembled our favourite Red River multigrain bread, but had absolutely no luck. When the new owners took over, we then searched for it at various grocery stores. Finally last week, my husband found 2 loaves at our nearby grocery store. The ‘best by’ date indicated that it was supposedly fresh. What an epic disappointment! It is the worst bread I’ve ever eaten! Clearly they do not have the correct recipe. The bread was white with a couple of specks of some kind of brown seed. It is very dry, the crust flakes off at the touch, and as I was dividing it into smaller packages for freezing, much of it just crumbled into dry bits. I had to throw at least a third of each loaf into the garbage disposal. It looks awful and tastes terrible. It’s even worse when toasted. It bears absolutely no resemblance whatsoever to Red River multigrain and they should not be selling it as that in the original packaging. It’s false advertising and a total travesty. It should be called ‘Slightly Moistened Raw Flour with Some Brown Things’.
Did they forget to add poppyseeds to this poppyseed roll? It wasn’t only this slice either. The dough was good and moist, but a disappointing poppyseed roll otherwise.
The bread is always fresh and soft. If you are there early enough, it is still warm. Chances of warm bread or cinnamon buns making it home without eating some is highly unlikely. It's priced better too! Definitely recommended. The boss Ross is great too!
