twins bake🍒
“Ladies always want to be beautiful” is an eternal sentiment. But we love sweet things!
We want to enjoy guilt-free sweets, so we’ll just make some healthy ones ourselves! With this goal in mind, we created our vegan sweets shop.
We use healthy ingredients such as beet sugar and pure maple syrup, as well as dough made with okara powder and organic oatmeal, all of which are rich in dietary fibers and low in carbohydrates. Some of our baked sweets are wheat flour-free.
In addition, our bagels are made using domestic Hokkaido Kitano Kaori Wheat Flour as a base, and use Shirakami Kodama Yeast to make the most of its natural umami flavour. We make our products with great care and are particular about each and every one of our ingredients, such as our salt from 100% Japanese saltwater.
With twins bake’s unique goals of ‘beauty and health’, we hope that even more people will find out about our healthy vegan sweets and bagels!
