Cape Seed origins

Leave a comment on this blog post by 5pm AEST Wednesday 31 August for a chance to win a week’s worth of bread vouchers. Yours to use as you please.
Often we get asked, ‘what is our healthiest bread’? Whether people are starting a health kick, or hoping to eat a little smarter for breakfast and lunch, customers are always interested to know what is the best bread for them.
When answering, our staff often point our customers in a couple of different directions depending on taste and health benefits wanted. Hi-Fibre Lo-GI, Chia, Wholemeal Country Grain, but the loaf that provides the greatest overall health benefits in my opinion is our Cape Seed Loaf.
Our Cape Seed Loaf is based on a traditional loaf baked for many years in South Africa. The original loaf was provided to under privileged South Africans as a source of essential nutrients. From all reports, this loaf was nutritious however not exactly tasty.
Knowing that Australians are keen for a healthy loaf, but one that tastes good, our bakers got together and created the loaf we have today. Our Cape Seed Loaf is not only a hearty, tasty bread in its own right, but is also a source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
This loaf, contains- soy and linseeds, poppy seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, rye, barley, oats and mung beans- this makes up a very special product.
• Made from 100% wholegrain flour
• Low GI (48)
• High in protein
• Source of omega-3 ALA
• Rich in antioxidants
• Good Source of Iron / Niacin / Zinc /
• Magnesium / Vitamin E / Calcium
• It’s also 40% higher in protein than regular wholemeal bread, and,
• 25% higher in fibre than regular wholemeal bread
When assessing our ‘healthiest’ bread, it is often difficult as so many breads provide different benefits, but for me Cape Seed is a winner on so many fronts.
For the remainder of August our bakeries will be giving you the chance to win your own year’s worth of Cape Seed Regular Loaves. Jump into your local bakery and fill in an entry with the Cape Seed’s 11 grains, seeds and beans for a chance to win. A tip (check out the posters in our bakeries for a hint to the answer).
We are also running a daily Cape Seed Twitter competition until the end of August. From 1-2pm AEST Monday – Friday, look out for our Cape Seed Tweets. If you are one of the first 11 each day to ‘re-tweet’ you will win a free Cape Seed Regular Loaf.

I seriously love cape seed bread, nothing compares! I cant go back to buying bread from a super market now.
Having a daughter with intolerances, I have to be really careful with my food purchases. Thankfully, I can trust Baker’s Delight – it’s fresh, wholesome and does not contain hidden nasties. Thank you Baker’s Delight – you are a bakery I can trust and rely on.
i love your bread! simply mouth watering! mmmmmmmm.
Cape seed bread so delicious and soooo much better for you than white bread keeps your insides healthy
Bakers delight is the best bakery I have ever been to… Cape Seed Bread is one of the healthiest breads you can have…Its my choice of bread everyday
The bread is so yummie
Oh yum!! I can see that on my plate with vegimite of a morning
I came here through the Facebook page, and all I got was this comment; that, and some realy interesting facts about bread! Gee, this blog really is a… delight!
(please feed me, I’m a poor uni student!)
both me and my husband love the bread! so yummy!
Looks good! Must go and try
Cape seed bread is great for nutrition and filling for us weight watchers.I can never go there without grabbing a white chocolate and berry scone.Yum
Looking for a bread that doesn’t make me feel bloated, pile on the kilo’s or taste like cardboard! This Cape Seed bread sounds like the perfect bread to try, healthy, full of seeds, loads of fibre, will definitely be heading to Baker’s Delight to purchase a loaf and give it a test eat!!
it’s PERFECT! Seriously, the BEST bread I have ever had!
Nothing comes close to Baker’s Delight bread and there sweet scrolls. You can’t help but stop and buy something from Baker’s Delight when you walk past. It truley is the best bakery with all you will ever need in it. Buying from anywhere else is just a massive dissapointment after trying Bakers Delight. Mmmm yum..this reminds me that I must buy rolls for lunches tomorrow
love it all!!!!
soy and linseed is my ultimate i have never liked whole grain breads but i do love this with the linseed thanks and you
I love the Baker’s Delight Cape Seed loaf! It’s so yummy toasted, and served with some freshly made soup. It’s nice to know that a simple loaf can contain so many healthy grains and seeds! The humble cheese toasty doesn’t seem so unhealthy, when it’s made with Cape seed loaf
what a great prize this would be a great help with our weekly bread bill.
Eat BAKERS DELIGHT CAPESEED LOAF with fresh avocado spread over it and a sprinkle of salt a pepper. Such a healthy breakfast/lunch option and tastes sooooooo goooooood!!!!
After buying a loaf of the cape seed for my partner on the way home one night, she won’t let me home unless I bring a loaf home now. She loves it and I normally only eat white but this bread has won me over to. Thanks for putting me in the good books Baker’s Delight
what a great prize!! this would be a great help with our weekly bread bill.
Cape Seed bread is one of my favourites and I save it for a ‘treat’. The nuttiness and crunchiness is so flavoursome – best bread on the market!
I love bakers delight…!! Nothing like warm bread straight from the oven first thing of a morning!
I adore Bakers Delight. Our family usually stop there for a few things for family gatherings. We dont usually buy our bread there because having 6 kids can be a bit expensive for so many loaves of bread for the week but we love the garlic and cheese twists and the chocolate croissants and, and, too many to mention
I LOVE Cape Seed. It’s my perfect bread, the more grains the better.
I love all of your healthy breads! We rotate depending on what is taking our fancy that day! Yummo!
I like this bread so many different ways – plain, toasted, as a base for an open grill sandwich, broken up and toasted for croutons in soup or a salad. My current fave – as a toasty with strawberry jam and jarlsberg cheese. Sounds wierd? Try it !
Three cheers for Chia!
Chia, Chia, Chia!!!
Guess where I have to go now…I’ve just read the Cape Seed loaf description and I am salivating…so off to my local Baker’s Delight to give it a whirl. My next big decision…to share or not to share…
Cape Seed loaf is my absolute favorite bread! I love the taste of poppy seeds and sesame seeds, perfect toasted with a little butter and vegemite
Bakers Delight, you sure are a delight,
Your bread, full of nutritional bite,
Cape Seed Bread I love thee,
Full of goodness and esprit,
I’m a Bakers Delight fan for life,
Trust me, just ask my wife.
I first discovered Cape Seed loaf a few years ago and it is still my favourite – it is just so wonderfully nutty and delicious whether it’s toasted or ‘raw’!
I have now discovered Cape Seed with fruit…and am having some toasted for brekky, as I write!
Good work B’sD!
Not a huge fan of cape seed, but love the Hi Fibre Lo GI bread. Wouldn’t give my children anything else! Once you get Bakers Delight, you could never go back to supermarket bread again.
I bought the Cape Seed Loaf last Saturday and can say that I’m seriously impressed with it! Being a food nazi, I always look for the healthiest food around and methinks I’ve found it at Bakers’s Delight!
Love this loaf~
Cape seed is the best and so delicious. Great for all the family and full of vitamins and minerals, it includes iron, protein, vitamin E, antioxidants and omega-3. Once you go Cape seed you should never go back.
As a triathlete I am always looking for high energy food options that don’t sit heavy in my stomach yet give me the necessary energy to perform at my best without feeling sluggish. This loaf is great for a quick pick me up on a long bike ride or pre-swim option. I just love it!
I love all of the grains used in this loaf and recommend it to my clients as a low GI carb source
Nothing beats a cape seed roll with pieces of hot roasted chicken and a little mustard. Thanks Bakers Delight!!!!
If you are healthy inside, you look it outside. Cape Seed bread is a great way to start.
My family always starts our day with cereal and bakers delight wholemeal block toast but will definitely be giving the Cape seed loaf a try tomorrow. Sounds delicious!
mmm , the seedier the bread the tastier ….
It’s fantastic to see that Bakers Delight care about what they put in their bread. I have bought bread many times and had very little knowledge of all the ingredients.
With a young family I find that I have less and less time for myself and honestly find myself eating whatever I can find. It is now starting to take a toll on my health. Doing something as simple as picking the right loaf of bread is a great way to start a health kick. Thanks for the info Bakers Delight!
I love cape seed loaf. When I was pregnant a few years ago I would crave it. I also loved the cape fruit and nu loaf our bakery used to do on Saturdays and was really disappointed when they stopped making it. It was seriously delicious.
It’s hard to come across a healthy loaf that tastes good, love it!
cape seed bread is mine and my 4 year old girls favorite, i knew it was great for her but i had no idea there was that much goodness in it! Am also pregnant so the extra vitamins and minerals are fantastic
Yum! I haven’t had cape seed loaf in a long time! If I win these vouchers, this is what I will buy!
Oh dear… my biggest food weakness – bread.
.
Think I may just have to hunt this down today & try it
Cape Seed Loaf is seriously scrummy, fresh or toasted !!!
I haven’t tried the new Cape Seed loaf yet. Might have to start with the rolls as the rest of the family don’t really like extra seeds in their bread.
Well of course its the Hi Fibre Lo GI Chia, its in the name and in the taste.
All Baker’s Delight bread is YUMMO! But as a diabetic I can’t go past the cape seed or the high fibre Lo Gi…mmmmm
YUM! I love your high fibre low GI bread, but the Cape Seed sounds delicious, I’ll be buying that next!
I LOVE Cape Seed loaf – toasted with vegemite its the BEST!
lurvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv bakers delight all of it yum yum!
Even my teenage daughter will eat this loaf! Bakers Delight is also the only bread I buy as one of my children has salicylate sensitivity.
I have alot of food allergies and have found that bakers delight
Bread and all of the other items they make are of exceptional quality
And have not once caused me any trouble with my allergies there is
No stress involved buying and wondering if I have wasted my money
On something I can’t eat when I buy from bakers delight . Thankyou
Bakers delight for making a healthy product.
Whoever made up the name “Baker’s Delight”, should be proud of themselves,not only the business name, but the quality & service i get when i enter my favorite store in Redcliffe, Qld, Big THANK”S..
Love Cape Seed bread…i know its good for me but the bonus is taste amazing too!
Cape see is amazing because it actually fills me up – all those seeds make eating my sandwich feel worthwhile!!!
Bakers Delight’s food photography rocks
Cape seed rolls are great but I really love the cape seed Fit2Go Bars! Amazing! My local store doesn’t stock them anymore but luckily there are lots of other Bakers Delight stores close to me… I’ll have to go huntting and stock up! I need my Cinnamon and Fruit Fit2Go fix
I love Cape Seed bread with some cream cheese & smoked salmon – YUM!!!!
As soon as you walk in, your greeted with the most pleasant aroma’s.
After having your cape bread and Chia bread i can never go back to plain boring ordinary bread. You have won our whole family and my 6 years loves your bread so much taht is wants to eat it for Breakfast , lunch and Dinner.
Baker’s Delight is amazing, fresh and the variety is wonderful.
Im a recent convert to the Cape Seed loaf and OMG …. now I could almost (almost!!!) live on it. I cant wait to spread it with avocado and a schmear of mayo, lay a little cheese, a few strips of crispy bacon and some tomato slices and little lettuce and onion and another schmear of mayo between 2 thick slices … yummmm … thats if theres is any left over after the trip home from my local Bakers Delight!
We always get Wholemeal Country Grain, but you have convinced me to go out and buy this bread today! I am always looking for bread that uses wholewheat or wholeflour wheat. Going to make cape cheese and salad sandwiches!
4 slices of reduced fat Cheese
2 Tomatoes, sliced
1 Cucumber, sliced
1 Carrot, grated
3 cups Lettuce, shredded
And a dollop of Beetroot Dip!! (my favorite)
Love the range of breads and scones that you do!
Native cultures knew inately the benefits of seeds and grains for good health and wellbeing and Bakers Delight has taken this knowledge on board with the baking of their breads
Great bread, love it
I am a loyal customer who purhcases all your bread types because they are all healthy. None of them contain the bread preservative 282 which benfits all my family – especially my children. Keep up the great work
My whole family love Bakers Delight because the bread is always so fresh and tasty. We love the rolls too and have them for lunches all the time
In our house we all used to love to toast the left-over Cape seed bread…….sadly,there’s never any left over!
Hi-Fibre, Lo-GI or Wholemeal Country Grain,
Many health benefits they each contain.
But my favourite loaf from Bakers Delight,
I can never go passed is Chia White! !
Omega-3s for body and mind,
As well as Antioxidants for general wellbeing you’ll find.
Best of all, the kids love it the best,
This Bakers Delight bread in our home will always be our house guest!!
Cape Seed Bread is soooo yummy made into a toasted sandwich With ham cheese and tomato and the bread is so good for you i can have double cheese!!
Is there anything better than freshly baked Bakers Delight bread, I think not!
This bread is delish! I love it with vegemite and cheese, or vegemite and avocado for breaky!
I was born and ‘bread’ on baker’s delight. For me it’s a matter of ‘Loaf’ and death!
Bread with Nowt taken Owt… only natural goodness!
I just love the smell of Bakers Delight bakeries, it reminds me of growing up with my nanna. Her house was allways wafting with a warm comforting smell of freshley baked bread.

Bakers Delight you give me what I knead, I love buttering your bread as I can’t better it.
Bakers Delights’ chocolate croissants are to die for. Nothing beats healthy bread and a friendly smile first thing in the morning after dropping my little darlings at school. Keep up the great work everybody at Bakers Delight Munno Para S.A
Fresh & delicious, nothing beats bakers delight bread!
love it, love it, love it, we cant go past the pane di casa, just great.
My favouite is the cape seed fruit rolls! Delish!!!
There once was a seed who did grow strong along came the farmer and cut it down and sent it to the factory to be ground into wheat etc .The best only goes into making bread and other yummy products from Bakers Delight
I love cape seed bread, but I love cape seed fruit and nut rolls even more!
While I try to be healthier with wholemeal or grain bread, I just cannot resist a white knot roll (with sesame seeds) from Bakers Delight, smothered in Vegemite. Total indulgence for a non-sweet tooth like me!
Wow! I have always had the Cape Seed Bread and now that I know it’s the healthiest I’l stick to it. I love it fresh with avocado, salt and pepper…mmm…think i’ll go fix myself some right now with a cuppa!

Cape seed tastes like real bread should.
The flavour comes through every bite which complements everything added.
And has made me appreciate the “Humble” sandwich again
REAL BREAD – as my kids call Bakers Delight bread is a daily staple in our household.
Our treat on a Saturday is to grab a spinach and feta pull-apart and take it to the beach with us to munch on after our swim!
This was a discovery of mine years ago, a great bread for keeping you regular if you know what I mean and tastes great. Toasted with apricot jam, yum!
Why can’t I buy white chocolate and passionfruit scones anymore? They were the best!
I love the Cape seed bread loaf with fresh ham everyday.
it keeps me regular!!! in one end, out the other!!
Love the bread always fresh and the staff is friendly and suggests new products to try.
Nothing like a warm cape seed loaf from BD with a bit of nutella and banana. Mmm.. I want some now.
