Baking

Baking is a wonderful hobby that fills the house with delicious smells. Make special birthday cakes, a dessert for guests or a whole plate of cookies (just for yourself). With our baking ingredients, you can indulge in healthy baking by adding nutritional ingredients, such as gluten-free flour and protein-boosting pancakes.

Not many people realise it, but baking isn’t only a sweet treat. It also has a range of holistic benefits. Check out the top advantages of baking below:

•  A family-friendly activity
•  Creative
•  Room to experiment
•  Stress reliever
•  Brings people together
•  Tastes delicious!

Baking protein powders

If you love baking and you’re looking to boost your protein intake, we have the ingredients for you. Grape Tree’s Pea Protein Powder and Natural Protein Powder (made from brown rice) can turn cookies into a slow-releasing energy boost.

Health-enhancing baking powders

Everyone loves a sumptuous fudge brownie now and then, but you might also want to experiment with healthy baking. Our Organic Baobab Powder and Inulin Powder are fantastic for the digestive system and balancing blood sugar. 

Grape Tree’s Organic Chlorella Powder is bursting with anti-oxidants, including vitamin C. Ashwagandha Powder and Maca Powder increase energy and help balance the nervous system for a calm and happy mood.

Natural baking colourings

Making your baking colourful can be challenging if you want to avoid artificial colouring liquids and gels. That’s where our natural baking colourings come in. Use Beetroot Powder to create a deep red velvet cake or Chlorella Powder for a vivid green.

Baking flour

There are plenty of flour alternatives you can use for extra fibre or gluten-free options. Semolina Flour is made from ground durum wheat to enhance gut health. Buckwheat Flour is high in amino acids, and Chick Pea Flour is a great choice to enhance protein.

If you want to add a natural, sweet flavouring, we highly recommend Grape Tree Almond Flour. It’s an excellent replacement for refined white flour and tastes divine when used to bake blueberry or apple muffins. 

Natural baking flavourings and decorations

High-quality ingredients are essential to take your baking to the next taste level. Our Vanilla Pods create sumptuous desserts, while Toasted Coconut or Raw Flaked Coconut give a nutty crunch. Milk Chocolate Chips and Organic Peruvian Chocolate Drops melt in your mouth, but you can also dial down the sweetness and opt for bitter-sweet Cacao Nibs.

Add a subtle hint of berry flavour with Organic Acai Berry Powder, or choose a citrusy zing with slices of orange and lemon Whole Candied Peel. And, of course, there’s nothing more pleasing to the eye than a rainbow of Mixed Coloured Glace Cherries.

Baking grains

Using grains in baking is a fantastic way to get more fibre and nutrients into your diet. Create oat cakes with our Jumbo Oats or bake cereal bars with a Muesli Base. You even add Organic Buckwheat Flakes for fibre-boosting muffins.

Baking yeast

Yeast is a rising agent and helps cakes or breads become light and airy. Experiment with gluten-free Doves Farm Quick Yeast, vegetarian-friendly Dried Active Yeast or keep it simple with Easy Bake Yeast Sachets.

Baking thickening and rising agents

Sometimes, you want to thicken your baking without pouring in extra flour. Doves Farm Gluten Free Xanthan Gum is a natural thickener, and Apple Pectin Powder works wonderfully in homemade jam, jelly and chutney.
