Product Description

Genius Gluten Free Sliced White Bread
Sliced for perfect sandwiches!

Deliciously soft and light Fresh White Bread with a natural home-baked taste. You won't believe there's No Wheat and No Gluten

"Some people have told us they prefer their bread sliced, so welcome to our new larger loaf with generous-sized slices and the same fresh, delicious taste as the original Genius loaf. Genius sliced bread makes life easier on a gluten-free diet and is perfect for fresh or toasted sandwiches and for making favourite snacks like baked beans on toast or cheese toasties. It's great for cooking with too and you can visit the Genius website for some of my recipe ideas. Whether you need to avoid gluten for medical reasons or just for your general well-being, I hope you'll enjoy Genius, so called because that's what people say when they first taste it."

Tragic

This used to be the absolute best gluten free bread on the market, by a country mile. Then they changed the recipe to something that, 1, used cheaper ingredients and, 2, had a few less calories per slice. And all they ended up with was, 3, something that is as miserable and pointless as all the other gluten free bread on the market. Remember bread of old? Fresh French loaf or Italian bread? Light? Tasty? Fluffy? That is what the old Genius bread used to be like. Now it is just like cheap sliced bread from the 1970s. Tragedy.

far too much sugar

Plus side is this bread doesn't fall to bits in 5 minutes but like all gluten free bread, it's better toasted. However have stopped buying it as it contains far too much sugar. It's horrible with savoury toppings.

Much Too Sweet

When this product was first launched, I was delighted with it. When toasted, it was like eating a slightly lighter version of 'normal' bread. However, over the course of the last year, I have found it much to sweet, to the point of being unpleasant. The texture although a bit sticky when not toasted, is still good - in fact better now that they seem to have resolved the issue of large holes in the middle of the loaf - but the 4.4g of sugar per 100g that this bread now contains as per the packet is higher than most other breads and certainly too high for my taste.

Quite the best gluten free bread on the market

Over the 20 years of not eating wheat I must have tried every version of wheat-free bread on the market. Some are tolerable as toast and others are just awful. This is the first I have tried that is delicious either fresh or as toast and if you freeze it, you can toast straight from frozen. Highly recommended.

Sorry to disagree

I find this bread to have an acceptable taste, but the texture is so strange it renders it almost inedible. It's short and cake-like, and completely unlike wheat-bread. It's also too sweet. If this is the best the gluten-free market can offer us, then quite frankly I'd rather live my life without eating bread..
