Key Personnel

New Freedom Bakery is a dedicated gluten-free bakery, offering what is believed by numerous customers to be unrivaled gluten free baked goods.

After 17 years of initial research and development, followed by years on the drawing board looking for the right staff and a suitable site, we are thrilled to now provide what so many have been craving decent breads, pastries, cakes and slices baked and served in a dedicated environment to prevent contamination.

New Freedom Gluten Free Bakery uses Tru-Dough mixes in all its baked goods, along with special honed skills of the bakers and pastry chef to give the products the texture, taste and keeping comparable to typical wheat based versions.

Bakery goods made from batters which would normally require a dough, may still look good, but they simply do not have the feel, texture and character of the wheat-based products we know so well. A great gluten-free wheat-free alternative still requires a flexible dough to maintain that feel, texture and memorable eating experience.Breads and pastries made from dough – just like wheat ones - is what we offer

Terry Hunter

Terry's passion for developing truly edible and healthy gluten-free breads began in the early 1990’s

Finally, after 1000 trial loaves, he discovered a formula that produced excellent breads. He went on to establish the bakery as a "test" centre to see just how far this unique bread mix could be pushed, to make a whole range of gluten-free baked goodies.

The experimenting to develop new products and mixes continues along with plans for expansion, so more gluten-free customers can share in the discoveries being made.
