Review: Good yeast, decent bake - Good product, worked well. Came as unbranded silver sachets in box. High price, we have always baked our own bread but since all the selfish hoarders bought it all during the virus thinking they were clever; we had to rely on paying high prices.... Good yeast none the less!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gave me good results
*by S***S on 9 March 2020*

I use this to make keto friendly zero wheat zero sugar bread, and its very easy to use. Just pour hot (NOT boiling) water over it, drizzle a teaspoon of honey, and let it sit while you mix the other ingredients. Then add to the mixture and proceed as normal. I got excellent rise and the bread is fairly palatable too!
