About

Actually, this bread supposed to be French Bread but I used mix of wheat flour and cake flour. The cake flour I bought is a bit sweeter (it's in Chinese character :), that's why the taste of this bread is somewhat like honey wheat bread. This time, it's not that heavy like the first time I baked Almost Whole Wheat Bread. I made bruschetta for our potluck yesterday using this bread.
