A great sandwich starts with great bread.

For chefs, caterers and hospitality operators, the bread plays an important role in the appearance, texture and overall eating experience of a dish. That is why Speciality Breads has upgraded its popular individual ciabatta roll. Now stonebaked, it offers a better-developed crust, stronger base and more authentic ciabatta character, while retaining the convenience and consistency busy kitchens need.

Available through Holdsworth Foods, it is a versatile choice for cafés, pubs, hotels, restaurants, workplace catering and grab-and-go menus.

A Popular Ciabatta, Now Even Better

Stonebaking gives the ciabatta a more distinctive crust and artisan-style appearance, while retaining a light, open crumb inside. The result is a roll that looks and feels more premium, without adding extra preparation to the kitchen.

The improved crust is particularly suited to hot sandwiches, helping the bread retain its character when toasted or warmed. Meanwhile, the stronger base provides a dependable carrier for generous and moisture-rich fillings, from pulled meats and grilled vegetables to melted cheese, sauces and salads.

Versatile Across the Menu

From breakfast through to lunch and evening service, ciabatta offers plenty of opportunities for menu development.

Use it for classic cold sandwiches, toasted fillings, breakfast rolls, premium burgers or hot-filled options. It pairs just as well with familiar favourites as it does with more elevated combinations, making it an easy way to add variety to a menu.

The artisan-style appearance can also help transform familiar fillings into more premium-looking dishes, without introducing complicated recipes or additional preparation.

Quality Without the Extra Work

Creating artisan-style bread from scratch can require considerable time, skill and equipment. Our stonebaked ciabatta provides the look and texture of a premium bread option while offering the consistency and convenience required in a busy foodservice environment.

Its frozen format also gives kitchens greater control over stock, allowing operators to use what they need and keep additional product available for busier periods. This can help support efficient stock management while reducing the risk of unnecessary bread waste.

Made for Modern Foodservice

Today's foodservice operators need products that balance quality with practicality. Our stonebaked ciabatta delivers a premium finish while remaining simple and versatile enough for everyday service.

With its improved crust, stronger base and authentic ciabatta character, it provides a dependable foundation for everything from premium sandwiches and hot-filled rolls to breakfast creations and rustic burgers.
