Rustic heritage baking. Wholesome, real food.
Our incredible mixes deliver delicious and nutritious home baking you can't get any other way. Here's why:
- organic heritage and ancient grains—tastier and healthier than generic commodity wheat
- old-fashioned milling—stone ground extra coarse with no sifting for rich texture, less nutrient destruction, slower digestion and tons of fibre
- fresh-ground and vacuum packed—if you've never tasted fresh ground grain, you're in for a treat! so good we use 50-70% less sugar than typical to let the grainy goodness shine through
- high nutrient density formula—you add eggs, yogurt, a little butter and extra-virgin olive oil—baking doesn't get more nutritious!
With GRAINSTORM, you can get authentic 19th century results with 21st century ease. Create rustic baked goods bursting with rich grainy flavours and textures—the way it was before hybridizing, denaturing and industrial processing. Before 10,000 years of sustenance tradition was turned into empty, fattening junk food for the convenience of modern industry. [Read the SAD story of modern wheat]
It all starts with Sean
He’s the organic farmer that supplies our artisan grains: Spelt, Kamut, Red Fife Wheat and Oats. He farms up near Owen Sound. If he doesn’t grow it himself, he knows the man who does. Like us, Sean believes in back-to-basics local sustainability and is building his business on it. The yields he gets are a fraction of commercial wheat, but he can sell at a premium to discerning customers. It’s well worth the price in flavor, nutrition and sustainability.

Fresh ground goodness
preserved for your kitchen
The pride of our business is our artisan stone grain mill, special ordered from France. With it we grind our custom blends of heritage and ancient grains—old-fashioned coarse grinds, totally untreated and unsifted. And within minutes, it is mixed and vacuum-packed to deliver the fresh-ground goodness to your kitchen. So you can make the very most of Sean’s fabulous grains.
Whole food baking that's authentically nutritious
Our mixes use up to 70% less sugar than typical to let the complex grainy flavours shine through. And base recipes call for nutritious natural foods like eggs, yogurt, butter and extra virgin olive oil. The end result is delicately fragrant, richly textured whole grain baking that is also wholesome, real food that you can feel great about eating and serving. [Read our whole food philosophy]
GRAINSTORM baking is dense with balanced nutrition that nourishes your body while satisfying sweet carb cravings. Our coarse, unsifted whole grains digest more slowly, so you'll be full and energized for hours, with no sugar crash. These are baked goods that actually help your diet rather than sabotaging it.
Artisan quality, modern convenience
Preparation is fast, easy and very forgiving. With one bowl, a couple of utensils and very little fuss, you can get a batch in the oven in under 10 minutes . So easy it feels like cheating. But this isn’t cutting corners—far from it. Unless you grind your own artisan grains at home you simply won’t get these results any other way.
Artisan baking with GRAINSTORM mixes is:
- FAST—you can have a batch in the oven in less than ten minutes; and closer to five once you’ve done it a few times
- EASY—there’s no critical measuring involved; after a few times you’ll be able to do it in your sleep
- NEAT—you need one bowl, one pan, a spatula and a spoon; no need to get out the mixer and hardly anything to wash
- FLEXIBLE — want to use more or less fat? a little extra sugar? no problem as each mix is designed to accommodate; again, it’s hard to go badly wrong
- FORGIVING—it’s okay if you estimate a little too much one way or the other; it’s hard to go wrong
- FUN & SATISFYING—your family will love our products, and you’ll love the satisfaction you get from serving something so wholesome and delicious
