Our Process
1. Mixing Ingredients
We carefully combine premium flour, farm-fresh eggs, butter, sugar, and our signature blend of spices. Our hand-selected pecans from our Upington farm are then folded into the mixture, ensuring every rusk is packed with rich, nutty flavor.
2. Baking the Mixture
The dough is shaped into loaves and baked in the oven until golden brown. This first bake develops the flavor and creates a firm structure that's perfect for the next step.
3. Cutting into Pieces
Once cooled slightly, the baked loaves are carefully sliced into uniform pieces. This step requires precision to ensure each rusk has the perfect thickness for optimal crunchiness.
4. Baking/Drying Process
The sliced pieces return to the oven for the second bake at a lower temperature. This drying process removes moisture and creates that signature crunch that makes our rusks perfect for dunking in your morning coffee or afternoon tea.
