I have recently bought a Tower bread maker and it makes some lovely bread. I buy the ready made packs of bread mix from Asda. My favourite is Wrights Oat and Linseed bread mix. ..it has a nice taste. And you can cut the loaf in half and freeze half if a whole loaf is too much. The bread maker is very easy to keep clean. I went right off supermarket white sliced bread as sometimes you could open the bag and you could smell the chemicals used as preservatives. My sister buys white uncut crusty loaves from the Co-op..she says they are the best and won't buy any other.
