Low carb in the front but the serving of two slices has 250Kcal. Much higher than normal bread that has 70 kcal per slice. Makes this so called healthy bread 100 Cal per two slicer more than the others. If we check the composition its of chemicals… Read more
and additives. Its not healthy nor good as its marketed. Im talking about the sourdough high protein and low carb bread that have many additives including gluten.
Follow-up · The texture looks artificial. The bread is filling and has good fiber content. Toasting it is not easy. It takes many runs and it resists toasting.
The most beautiful and nutritious bread money can buy. Please ignore all the negative reviews as they have nothing to do with the product itself. Highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to switch from the traditional high carb bread, to something that is actually good for your body.

Follow-up · **bread sections,and the only frozen bread in the shelves. ** no i didn’t contacted coles ** i didn’t enjoyed the bread , because my understanding the bread was expired .
Don’t believe any of the negative reviews! This bread is incredible! SO filling and a gutsy, uber tasty German style bread. Show details
Massively disappointing – I don't care how "healthy" it is. Despite reheating in oven as suggested, I'm really sorry but this is the single most disappointing and tasteless loaf of bread I have ever eaten. One slice was enough. Throwing the rest out. And 62% Australian ingredients? They must import all the plasticisers/fillers/whatever. I speak German, I've lived and… Read more
worked in Germany, which has imo the best bread in the world. This isn't it. Maybe if I blitzed it in the toaster, it might improve. I doubt it.
Herman Brott keto sourdough – Found best results was to toast in air fryer at 200 for a few minutes Very tasty
WOW WOW WOW – Best bread ever,I purchased the Sour dough keto bread . Have found by purchasing it online works out cheaper and fresher. Supermarkets rarely have any in stock ..highly recommend this bread .if you keep it in the refrigerator after you open it ,it will stay fresh for a long time . Show details
Great Low carb, healthy bread – Out of all low carb breads I have tried over last 18 months, the bread is the best tasting and healthiest breads so far. Even on the ‘YUKA’ app is scores 90/100 for the ingredients.
Finally satisfied! – I first heard of this bread today and went straight to the nearest retailer to get me some. This bread has far exceeded my expectations, it tastes great and is very filling. Once slice and I finally feel sated after switching to a keto lifestyle two months ago. I hope it continues to be available in regional WA
The best bread ever – I just come to say I am leaving Australia for visit my family for two months and one of my two baggage is full of this bread! This bread is my life changing bread! Thank this company for existing! Show details
A saviour in a little loaf – I'm just eating my way through my very first loaf of Herman Brot's bread and I can tell you it won't be my last loaf I'll buy. I am not a wholemeal or seedy person but I bought this bread simply because I'm keeping my carbs low. I was so surprised about how good the bread tastes, especially after I've toasted it. It is a game changer for me and… Read more
I genuinely recommend this bread. Still amazed that something that is so low in carbs tastes this good.
A great low (total) carbohydrate Australian bread – A Diabetes Educator told me of Herman Brot several years ago. Surprisingly many Dieticians were unaware of it and hence did not promote it to clients. *Size Of Packaging And Appearance When first looking at the loaf, it appears quite small with not many slices. The slices are dark brown, small and dense. Slices have a mixture of soft… Read more
ingredients of varying size. I assume their size assists with the slower digestion of the bread and hence the lower Glycaemic Index (GI), which is better for sugar control.
*Taste Taste-wise, the bread is wholesome and moist and delicious. Two slices are equally as filling, if not more so, than two slices of any other commercial white, wholemeal or wholegrain bread. If the bread gets too old on your counter it becomes rubbery, so I would always advise eating it fresh for a few days or freezing it. It thaws easily and the taste does not overly change.
*Nutrition I am amazed that with the great taste and satiation, it is so low on total carbohydrates, which is what diabetics look for. A standard 2 slices of bread traditionally is counted as 30g total carbohydrates by diabetics, or 2 exchanges (per slice: 15g carbohydrate/1 exchange) or 3 portions (per slice: 15 carbohydrate or 1.5 portions). Here, both slices combined are only 5g, not 30g! That is a 1/6th amount and almost insignificant. Insulin pump users of course need to bolus with even 5g, but the average diabetic can count this 5g almost like milk in their tea - like a snack. Amazing. Of course the carbohydrates are low - but as with any sandwich, toppings still change total carbohydrates and GI.
*Reason For Only 4 Star -Costs I honestly love this bread, and I realise the cost is likely a little high in getting the excellent ingredients, operating costs, packaging, and distribution Australia wide from Queensland. -Nature of the bread I have valiantly tried, but I can not eat this bread on a daily basis, even though it is a fantastic product. I need to give my tastebuds a rest with other foods, as this has a distinct taste that for myself at least can not be maintained. I can not easily explain that one.
*Ingredients Water, wheat protein, soy protein, lupin protein, soy meal, linseed, sunflower seeds, soy grits, wholegrain wheat meal, wheat bran, soy flour, yeast, vinegar, apple fibre, iodised salt, roasted malt barley, flour, emulsifier (from soy), acidity regulator.
You don't grow home hungry – This is how good bread should be , wholesome, tasty & filling - you only need to eat 2 slices & you're full. Great bread !!! Show details

Just great! Love that I can have bread again! – I love that it is yummy. For those who dont like seeds etc or looking for white bread, it's not for you. It is so much like Burgen Soy and Linseed its ridiculous and I loved that bread. Thankyou Thankyou! It lives in the freezer and only pulled out for toasting. Show details
Amazeballs! – This is by FAR the best low carb bread on the market. If I didn't know it was low carb, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. How about some pizza bases?
I Can Eat Bread Again!!! – Because of the price I have been reluctant to buy this bread but last week I decided to try it and OMG, this would have to be the best low carb bread on the market today. I have missed toast so much. The crunch is perfect and one slice actually fills you up! I popped mine straight in the freezer to keep if fresh. So glad to see so many stores stocking this bread, I will definitely be buying this bread again!
Best low-carb bread around. Tastes like real bread! – I have tried other low-carb breads and they either have a foul consistency (rubber or wettex) or taste like cardboard. This bread was such a nice surprise – seedy and delicious like NORMAL bread. It tastes a lot like Burgen's Soy Linseed loaf to me. Great toasted or fresh as a sandwich.
Better than anything! – This bread is simply amazing. It beats all other low carb breads on the market, and all recipes to bake at home - HANDS DOWN. Tastes exactly like my favourite high carb Soy and Linseed bread. I feel SOOOO lucky to have stumbled across it. Thanks.
Fantastic bread – The best low carb/high protein bread ever! I buy mine in my local Drake Foodland. Freezes great and is just perfect for me. I freeze it in 2slice portions. More expensive in the health food shops though.
Great if we could have a GROUNDED seed version – It is a tasty lower carb option. Seeds are good and important but it would be great if we had a ground seed version. Whole seeds are bad for IBS, Diverticulitis, other colon issues and for people who wear dentures. SO good that we can have bread delivered to our door now. Well done and thanks.
A delicious low carb bread, the best I have tasted – A healthy delicious low carb bread. I have been looking for the perfect bread for so long, thank you for making this bread.
Surprisingly nice for a low carb bread – I really do like the taste of this low carb bread, but I wish there weren't so many seeds. unfortunately, the seeds get under my dentures making it almost impossible to eat. Do you make a seedless loaf.?

Super filling wonderful tasty texture – Was told about this bread, found it. Over the moon , I love the taste, the fact it is low calorie and carbohydrates. Would like to know if the wheat is pure and unadulterated.Have just read how bread is causing so many immune problems, which I have. Don't want to live without bread but have to shed kilos.I could eat this all the time as long as… Read more
I know the flour is not a problem. It does have several wheat products, hopefully you can answer me on this. But.......I love it !!!!!!!!
This is perfect for me - just what I needed as I enjoy bread but needed a low carb one. Thank you! – I love the bread & the seedy texture. Had it toasted with avocado & grated lite chese. Very satisfying. Being on a low-carb diet I was very excited to find a tasty alternative with 95% less carbs than normal bread. Found a store easily using the store locator. I bought it at a Drake Foodland. Looking forward to trying the pasta.☺
cant get past the texture – I was very excited to find this bread in foodland. The taste is fine, it taste like a seedy bread. I just cant get past the rubbery texture. Tried toasting it, still rubbery. It might suit other people, just not for me.
Excellent – This was the best low carb bread I have tried. Taste was good, just wish more stores had in stock.
Awesome – The best thing ever was missing my bread eating low carb and this is just what I needed. Tastes like a seeded bread with lots of fibre ...have only used it toasted. I am considering making bread crumbs out of it also as a coating for snitzel so I don't feel as though I am being left out when others indulge. Just wish all the supermarkets stocked… Read more
it as it is hard to come by unless you order it on line. I believe they also have a low carb pasta and muesli. I found mine at IGA not all of them stock it though.
Better than I thought – This bread is the best of the low carb breads I've tried. It has a decent texture and taste. It doesn't bloat me, it's high in fibre and helps me to feel satiated for longer. It's a little pricey but worth it and not easy to come by in the stores. I buy it from an IGA superstore.
Best thing ever – Firstly it's one of the few truely high protien breads out there. But also I quite like the taste. I always will be a fan of just good old white bread, but as I'm not a fan of the taste of other healthier types of bread like wholemeal, I was quite surprised by the taste of this. My only complaint is it's hard to find.
Actually resembles bread!! – I have tried many lower carb breads - from those that claim to be low carb which are not really and those which are low carb and taste terrible. This bread actually tastes like a dark rye and has a lovely nutty flavour. Toasts up wonderfully and great to have with avocado, egg and bacon. This morning I had it as a base for grilled cheese. So yummy… Read more
and keeps me within my daily carb count. Thank goodness I have found it. Available at health food stores. Not cheap but when you consider how much it would be to make it, it's worth it!
LOVE IT – No clue what the other blogger is on about!! I LOVE this bread. I have tried several low carb breads and this is the winner by far. I buy regularly and just wish my local IGA stocked it. My partner also loves it and you can not tell the difference at all between this and regular bread (even when toasting it).
Ticks the healthier bread boxes – This bread delivers on its claims, it is low sugar, high fibre, lower carb (5.4g per 100g), higher protein and low GI (24). That's the up-side. The first down-side is the price, I paid $8, but the biggest downside is the taste. Eating this bread was the single most joyless eating experience I've had. I love really grainy bread but the texture of… Read more
this is rubbery, it's really awful when toasted (crunchy on the outside doughy rubber in the middle) and it just doesn't taste good.
I tried hard to keep eating it every morning to finish the loaf but in the end I just couldn't do it, I know it's better for me but life is too short to eat bread as tasteless and rubbery as this.
This of course is just my opinion, give this bread a go, if you like it then lucky you because it probably is better for you, I also appreciate what the company is trying to do.
