{"title":"BYRON BAY CRACKERS- BYRON BAY, NSW","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- A FEW WORDS FROM THE MAKER -\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eOur story began with a traditional recipe for the Danish seeded flat bread know as Knaekbroed. A version of this simple recipe, passed between generations of friends and family across the world, came into my hands via my sister-in-law. In fact, I still have a photocopy of the original handwritten recipe stowed away in my beloved recipe file collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eI began making a variation of the Knaekbroed recipe in our home kitchen here in Bangalow, Australia in 2015. My food loving friends were instantly addicted to the slightly salted flavour and crispy texture of the seeded crackers recipe. One great friend, an admired Chef and ideas girl, suggested I should think about taking the crackers beyond the home kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe seed was planted, but it wasn’t until a few years later that my husband Mark (Cracker Finance Officer – CFO) and I decided to think more seriously about giving the crackers business a go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eByron Bay Crackers was born in 2017 and that original recipe was transformed into our first and most popular salt \u0026amp; seed cracker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eWe borrowed a commercial kitchen in Byron Bay on weekends from that same Chef friend and her generous business partner, who happens to be another inspiring friend. Every Saturday and Sunday I would weight out, mix, roll and bake cracker recipe batches while everyone else was enjoying a sleep-in. Mark would arrive late morning with coffee and snacks and join me on the production and packing line until the day was done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eI began selling small orders of the crackers to a few local retail outlets in and around Byron Bay. I am ever grateful to those local businesses for having faith in the product and giving our little crackers a go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eOne year later, we moved into our own kitchen in Byron Bay, and now our crackers are sold online and across the northern rivers of New South Wales to retail outlets and food service customers. We now also sell our crackers across Sydney and we are expanding into Melbourne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe Byron Bay Cracker family has four varieties: the original salt \u0026amp; seed, GLUTEN FREE salt \u0026amp; seed, paprika \u0026amp; chilli and rye \u0026amp; caraway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThat’s our story so far! We hope you enjoy our Byron Bay Crackers as much as our friends and family do. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSarah \u0026amp; Mark\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eP.S.
