THIS SEASON WE LOVE…

Yoliʼs Artisan Bakery

This is their story.

It all starts with the flour... We use flour from a mill in Phoenix Durban called Millstone. The flour we use is stoneground, milled between two stones the old fashioned way. But the goodness of the fl our starts with the grain itself. Millstone only use GMO-free grains from crops that are not sprayed with pesticides, making the wheat grain itself organic.

In commercial flour production, they will remove the husk and the endosperm of the grain to improve the shelf life of the flour (these bits of the grain are where all of the nutrients are). Then they grind it down at high speed, further degrading the nutrient quality of the flour. Finally, they bleach it to make it white and to kill any lurking pathogens that would make the flour go off. So, that flour is completely devoid of nutrients.

With stoneground flour the process is different. The whole grain with all of its nutrients is ground down, including the nutrient-dense wheat germ. They grind it down slowly, so there is no friction to destroy the nutrients. The flour is not bleached. Nothing is added or taken away. It is the purest form of flour, the way it has been milled for ages. The flavour of the flour is sweet and nutty.

The ingredients we use are sourced locally where possible, and no preservatives, enhancers or harmful additives are used so you can be sure when you indulge in Yoli’s baked goods you are getting a wholesome product.

Our methods are simple and are a complete reflection of our ethos: everything from scratch - fresh, quality, ethically sourced ingredients. Everything handmade. We are loyal to freshness and artisan traditions, and loyal to the integrity of our products and our customers. That’s you!

** Yoli’s is located at The Market at the Lifestyle Centre in Ballito. Their bakes and light meals are legendary, and their coffee is the fuel that powers the team at 88FM. We love Yoli’s … and you will too!
