Sri Lanka’s friendly neighbourh­ood Bakery / Grill has taken their product range up a notch, with the launch of their new Healthy Bread range! That’s right, you can now eat as much bread as you want without feeling the slightest bit guilty because Paan Paan has gone the extra mile to make your bread healthier than the kind you are usually used to.

Now when someone talks about healthy bread one would tend to assume it tastes rather bland. However Paan Paan has successful­ly managed to ensure that their range of healthy bread is beyond yummy! Ideally you wouldn’t compromise on taste in order to eat and live healthier!

Would you believe us if we told you that Paan Paan has gone so far as to cater to individual­s that are intolerant of gluten? They’ve even made a bread that’s LOW – GI meaning a diabetic individual can consume the bread and not worry too much about their insulin levels spiking (If like me at first you were wondering what GI meant, it is the Glycemic Index which is a relative ranking of carbohydra­te in foods according to how they affect blood glucose levels.)

Furthermor­e they also launched a type of Multi – Seed bread, that contains some of the most interestin­g seeds in its mix namely Bran, Sunflower seeds, Pumpkin seeds, Lin Seeds (Flax) & Oats! Before we forget to tell you, one thing you must remember about Paan Paan is that their bread is always fresh and stored very hygienical­ly; essentiall­y you are guaranteed fresh bakes daily, as they have a policy due to which they don’t sell their product past the 24 hour mark.

Their breads from the health range and the normal bread as well can be stored for up to 3 days at room temperatur­e and longer if you decide to freeze it.

If we were to speak about their launch event, you should’ve been there -it was simple and to the point and included an intro to the breads and and an explanatio­n as to what they were all about and how they would benefit you. They even had a very detailed picture of wheat grain (if you have time look it up, its rather baffling). The owner and head chef walked us through the different types of bread and even let us try some of it out, so you can trust us when we talk about the taste of the bread, it comes from experience.

The staff at Paan Paan are absolutely helpful and will assist you with choosing the best type of healthy bread you need, and also don’t forget they undertake deliveries as well!

Before we end the article let us tell you the names of the breads you can select from, the ones on the healthy range to be more specific.

The main store is located at 84, Lorensz Road, Colombo 4. If you feel like you want to call the store and ask them for more informatio­n you can get the contact number of the one that’s closest to you on their website. We’d like to take the time to note how proud we are that our own local brand Paan Paan has taken the extra step to provide its customers with a healthier product that is affordable and of good quality.
