IT'S NATIONAL FIG WEEK!

All week long we're celebrating Figs 🌱

 FUN FIG FACTS:

  • Fig puree can be used as a healthy fat replacement in baked goods which we at Garcia Bread Co. occasionally do 
  • California produces 98% of the Nation's fresh figs and 100% of the Nation's dried figs 
  • 1/2 cup of figs has as much calcium as 1/2 cup of milk
  • Figs have more fiber than prunes and more potassium than bananas
  • Figs are Miss Maria's favorite fresh fruit 😉
Today's Flavor of the Day is:  Fig Balsamic Artisan Bread: This vegan bread is best enjoyed late Summer to early Fall to guarantee the maximum flavor of fresh figs balanced with slightly sweet balsamic vinegar with just a hint of spice.....a unique and interesting combo.......A Miss. Maria favorite CAN ALSO BE ORDERED IN ARTISAN ROLLS 


Figs are ending their peak season so now is the time to Keep It Real and indulge in this unique and delicious signature bread of ours
