The Mini Bakery, the first of its kind, is pioneering a fully automated way to bake bread. It mixes, forms, proofs, bakes and cools bread all on its own. From autostart to notifying employees when bread needs to be sliced, the breadbot is packed full of features and has the potential to revolutionize the bread industry as we know it.

INTRODUCING BREAD, AGAIN…

Wilkinson Baking is introducing bread the way it used to be made, the way bread was meant to be, with that fresh out of the oven smell, feel, and taste. Combining the old feel of bread with a new technology.

The best thing since...

Fresh  bread

 

Local

 
 

The BreadBot is placed in a store where customers can see, smell, and interact with the bakery. This brings jobs to the communities in which the bakeries are placed.


Value

 
 

Little to no waste and low transportation costs means delivering a high quality product to the customer for less.

Fresh

 
 

Customers can purchase a cooled and sliced loaf an hour after it's been baked, or pick up a hot loaf 18 minutes after it has exited the oven with the self-serve option. It's a new kind of fresh.


Consistency

 
 

With over 20 sensors monitoring the bakery a hundred times each second, the BreadBot is like a state of the art factory crunched into a small machine.

Our Planet

 
 

Waste is minimal to none, as the number of loaves baked can be tailored to daily demand. Dry ingredients are the only items shipped, reducing transportation to one sixth of commercial bakeries.


give water

 
 

Giving back is important in life. By drilling  wells in Mozambique,  Africa, each loaf purchased provides clean water.

 Eat Bread, Give Water. 

 
 

Fixing an age-old problem

The Old vs the new

 
 

The old model

The old model mass produces bread in a large, centralized factory, ships the bread to distribution centers, and then ships that bread to stores. This model requires tens of thousands of trucks on the road and leaves the customer with less than a fresh loaf

A new model

The new model distributes the bread factory to the store and bakes locally. It eliminates the need for a truck to deliver bread and allows the customer to take fresh bread minutes after it's been baked. A better loaf and better for our earth.

The bread

Simple and Oh so good

No artificial preservatives, high quality grains...and a clean label

 

100% Sprouted
Whole Wheat

Made with Cascade Organic Farms Flour

A delicious bread made with wheat grown by Cascade Organic Farms in Royal City, Washington using organic farming practices and an organic pest control management system

Cascade irrigates their wheat fields using the water from their own wells rather than relying solely on seasonal rainfall.

The fields are harvested just as the wheat begins to sprout. To sprout the wheat, Cascade cuts it and lets it lay in the field. With the right conditions, the wheat begins to germinate.

Cascade produces this unique flour using their own high-impact mill and nothing is removed during the process. All wheat that goes in comes out whole wheat flour. It truly is 'whole grain' wheat flour.

 


Nine Grain

All Natural

The Nine Grain is a tasty mixture of seeds and grains combined with a whole wheat blend of flour. It's our favorite hot out of the oven loaf because of the way it slices and smells. It's a good source of grains and fiber.
