Our very own bakery

Workshop & Team IJLB

We are a Belgian artisanal bakery that specialises in making granola. That's what we really want to excel at. Developing our own production is a conscious choice. We like to be an open and transparent company where you know how and by whom your bag of granola is made.

Our biggest fans? It’s a mixed bag: young and old who occasionally make their own granola. They’ve taste tested and know that we don’t approach it any differently than you would at home.

  • Tasty
  • Artisanal
  • 100% natural
  • Organic & vegan

Here's where the magic happens!

At our bakery, where it's nice and busy every day.

The ingredients are weighed and mixed according to our recipes, the baking trays are filled and the oven is on around the clock.
But when it comes to baking, we resolutely go for 'low and slow'. We opt for a long baking process at a low temperature. This is how each ingredient retains its unique natural taste. Our discerning bakers never take their eyes off the oven, so that the freshly baked granola always comes out at the perfect time.
Once everything has cooled down, the granola is carefully packaged and prepared for our distributors, stores and customers. Our carriers and the postal service ensure that your parcels of breakfast happiness come your way as quickly as possible.
Enjoy!
