(From Bristol Evening Post)

Award winning Hobbs House Bakery will add another accolade to its collection after one of its loaves was judged the best in a search for Britain's top organic products.

The family-run business scooped the baked goods category in the Soil Association Organic Food Awards with its Wild White bread.

It was also highly commended for its Soda Seeds loaf - one of a range of speciality breads baked at the company's Chipping Sodbury headquarters.

A panel of experts made up of chefs, restaurateurs, food writers and other specialists said the winning loaf was "delicious, with a fresh taste of wheat and a fabulous boxy red crust".

Gardener Monty Don, president of the Bristol-based Soil Association, will present the award to Hobbs House at a ceremony in the city on Friday.

Tom Herbert, one of the directors of the bakery, will join other winners at Bordeaux Quay on the eve of the Soil Association Organic Fortnight and Food Festival to receive the award.
