It differs from other
breads the texture
is much finer ”
Mrs. Wright’s next-door neighbor is telling why
she buys Peter Pan from the neighborhood
grocer. This grocer sells better quality gro
ceries and therefore recommends Peter Pan
Bread.
The cut surface of a properly mixed and baked loaf of
bread should be soft and velvety to the touch. It should
not crumble when the fingers are drawn lightly over its
cut surface.
The texture of Peter Pan Bread is soft and pliable. It is so elastic
that when pressed by the fingers it immediately tesumes its
original shape.
