I too have experienced this bread problem and not just with Coles Brand breads! It has also happened with Abbott's and Helga's Light Rye Loaves and their patches are darker than the rye bread colour and they can smell quite yeasty and taste unbaked. Don't they have Supervisors or Quality Control these days, obviously not!! These brands are not cheap breads either.....grrrr!!!
Like a lot of queries on the internet, I find they can't be bothered to get back to you, half the time, which I think is just rude and frustrating, so why have a 'Contact Us' section, not everyone wants to talk on the phone, especially when they employ people with very strong accents and you can't understand them!

Surmise no further my dear friends of the SDC, as I have the answer to the bread query for all of you.
Tom O'Toole will answer the mysterious Coles bread mystery. He owns the Beechworth Bakery in Beechworth PLUS many others including Healesville Beechworth Bakery. You have NEVER met anyone like him. He has books for you to buy, videos et etc. This beautiful man has done it with so much challenge. He amazingly could not read, write etc & has come out so humbly to be loved by all. DO ring one of his Bakeries & you just MAY end up talking to him. He's such a lovely guy who will spill any secret as he is "right into what he has created." He travels around keeping his eye on his creation. You just ask for him. If he is there he will come out of hiding to talk to you personally or by phone. He believes knowledge should be shared. His books are so explanatory & are always on sale @ his Bakeries. Try his gorgeous cakes when you are on holidays or am lucky to be near one of his shops. They are NEVER empty especially the one @ Healesville & his favourite first @ Beechworth.

So what IS the answer?

Yes frozen and they didn't double bag

We freeze our bread all the time and never get this problem.... it looks more like flour problem maybe

So what IS the answer?

I too was wondering the same thing!!

I think it is not being kneaded long enough therefore leaving unmixed flour in the loaf.

I buy the same brand but the multigrain it also has the white patches on it. I usually give those slices to the birds I think it is mould

 

[Leeta069]

They’re obviously not mixing their batches long enough to mix all the ingredients properly. I have seen this before when working in a bakery, sometimes someone mixes “quick” batches in order to finish their shift, just saying ….

I just asked my son, who worked in a bakery making bread and he said the same thing, not mixed long enough to incorporate all the ingredients.

The white spots are definitely mould.
