The Breadcrumb

Manuela Goeb is one of life’s enthusiastic happy people! She oozes a richness of spirit and generosity, which is reflected in spades in the quality of her handmade bakery and patisserie, on sale at the charming Breadcrumb Bakery. This delightful shop and bakery is easily found by the seductive smell of all kinds of everything wonderful coming from it’s ovens from the early hours of the morning. Seek it out down the tiny side street off the road into Kenmare town, pop inside, purchase a cup of freshly brewed coffee or tea and whatever tantalises your taste buds. Then, if the sun is shining, perch yourself on the garden bench outside and just enjoy! If you are lucky, the baker herself might come out and join you – and pretty soon you’ll be laughing along with her. A visit here is so much more than a trip to buy bread! In April 2010, The Breadcrumb will be opening a Vegetarian Café with lots of glutenfree and wheatfree options, as well as selling glutenfree bread. A background in nursing and consequently, a healthy disrespect for conventional medicines, has given German born Manuela the inspiration to create great bread and pastries that are really good for you. This is not just any old bread now. Here at The Breadcrumb, the lady of the house sees it as her duty to ‘breaducate’ her customers on the benefits of healthy home baked bread, which uses quality ingredients, passion, patience and time honoured methods in its production. She specialises in natural sourdough, which uses no artificial additives, preservatives or improvers, as she’s convinced that these are responsible for today’s rise in allergies. In fact, her top priority is to cater for wheat and gluten allergic customers. To this end she uses a large percent of rye and spelt in her loaves. Good Food Ireland Member
