Cheese bread belongs on the big stage!

We are Thiago & Julia, a brazilian foodie couple who love discovering new landscapes, cultures and tastes. During our adventures, one question kept following us: how come Cheese Bread, loved by so many, is still unknown in Europe?

Not An Ordinary Bread is a true Brazilian classic, made with Swiss cheese. Our mission is to make it Europe's next grab-and-go favourite, right up there with croissants, pretzels and empanadas.

Questions, answered.

Gluten-free usually means dry and sad. Is this?

No. Cheese Bread is gluten-free by nature, made from tapioca starch, never from "fixed" wheat. Crispy, chewy and indulgent, with no compromise. It just happens to be gluten-free.

Where do you deliver?

We deliver within Zürich city. Order on our shop or on WhatsApp and we'll take care of the rest.

How do I store and bake it?

Keep frozen at −18 °C until ready to bake. Preheat to 180 °C, place the frozen pieces 4 cm apart and bake 25–30 minutes until puffed and golden. No thawing needed.
