We happily announce we have re-certified as a @bcorpuscan certified business, our B Corp score improved from 87.1 to 98.3 points! 🌎

To achieve B Corp status, a company must get to 80 points using the B Corp assessment tool. Over 300,000 companies have used this assessment and the average score of an ordinary business is 50.9. Only about 10% of businesses who use the tool certify. 

The B means Benefit: companies using business as a force for good, for-profit companies which meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability for all their stakeholders.

BReD’s score went up by implementing more training opportunities for our team both internally and externally, and adding more benefits such as subsidized staff housing.

Through our partner charity @treesforthefuture we have planted close to 90,000 trees to date, donating 1% revenue to animal, social and environmental causes, as well as sourcing locally and organically.

Animal ingredients, such as more than 50,000 eggs, have been eliminated from our menu in place of cruelty-free, plant-based alternatives. There is no extra charge for plant-based milks as an act of animal advocacy - prices are kept in line with other conventional cafes. You shouldn’t have to pay a penalty for choosing the ethical option!

Thanks to our team members past and present for your endless hard work and dedication. Thanks to all our customers for buying local and supporting our mission. Thanks to our growers and suppliers. Thanks for your continued support and amazing messages.

Here’s to getting better and better in every way we can! taken in BReD - Organic Sourdough by @eds_bred

Carrot Lox Bagel 🥯 

Slow-cooked, organic, local carrots in tamari, caper brine, water, cane sugar, dried shiitake mushrooms, liquid smoke and covered with dried kombu seaweed. 

We use our slow-fermented sourdough pizza dough for the base covered with an Everything Bagel seasoning. After baking, we schmear the bread with dill, lemon and black pepper cream cheese, thinly sliced marinated carrot, fresh cucumber, red onion, capers and garnish with more dill!

We believe plant-based food is no compromise on flavour or texture. Our ethical take on a smoked salmon bagel! Available today and tomorrow from 10am.

Hot tips for making better bread:

• It all starts with the mother! Feed her twice a day (every 12 hours) or store your mother ferment in the fridge during the week and feed her three times before starting to make bread.

• Quality ingredients are a must - organic flour is healthier and more environmentally friendly, and local sea salt helps bring out more flavour and controls fermentation.

• Precise weighing is a non-negotiable - invest in digital scales in place of volumetric cups. 

• Another essential tool is a temperature probe for monitoring water and dough temperatures.

• Make a record in a note book - make notes each time you bake on timings, temperatures, weather, etc. for future bakes. 

• Slow down. Don’t rush the process! Rest the dough after every step. taken in Whistler, Canada by @eds_bred
