Long-life bread is a type of bread that stays fresh for over 2 weeks at room temperature.

Panettone is a must-have Italian traditional sweet bread for Christmas. Panettone yeast is the most suitable yeast for Panettone baking and has been passed on for several hundred years (similar to Sakedane for Sake in Japan). This yeast is very unique as it has yeast and lactic acid bacteria co-existing. Breads made with this yeast represent Italian style bread. Their greatest feature is thorough maturing and a fermenting process which brings out a rich, deep flavor.

Long hour maturing and fermentation of Panettone yeast is the reason our bread lasts long even in room temperature. This time-consuming process makes dough with low water activity and high acidity. During the process sugar converts into sugar alcohol that helps the bread to stay fresh. This makes it hard for microorganisms like mold to grow and makes it possible to last long without preservatives. Even more, it helps maintain the flavor and melt-in-mouth texture after baking.

We make a bread filling red bean paste and cream without preservatives to match our long-life by having joint development with our raw material maker. Our red bean paste and chocolate cream contains higher sugar and less moisture to stay fresh longer. Our bean paste contains 25% of water which is lower than a typical Yokan’s 26%.
