Want Real Bread? Look for The Loaf Mark!

Read FAQs and more about the scheme

The Real Bread Campaign encourages all bakeries and retailers to display full lists of ingredients for all bread they sell (and all additives, in the case of industrial loaf products), whether or not the law requires them to do so.

The announcement comes in the same week that the Campaign sent a letter, signed by more than 1000 bakery owners and other bread lovers, urging the government to widthdraw support for a proposed code of practice for sourdough labelling.

Current and recently-lapsed users

We emailed all current and recently-lapsed users on 18 May 2023. We’ve also loaded renewal dates into the dashboards of current users.

We now offer you the option to set up discounted automatic payments, reducing the faff when it comes time to renew each year.

Supporter badge

The Loaf Mark scheme for business owners is separate from being a Real Bread Campaign supporter, which is open to all.
