Spelt Right^® is a small family owned Maine company that specializes in baked goods made with organic spelt flour and other organic and all natural ingredients.  We started Spelt Right in 2007 as a result of our discovery that our young son was sensitive to common wheat (triticum aestivum).  In our search for alternative great tasting, healthy grains that he could enjoy, we found spelt (triticum spelta), an ancient cousin of common wheat.  Unable to find “kid friendly” spelt products in the market place, we decided to make them ourselves.

In June 2008, we moved our facility to the historic and green Sparhawk Mill (the bakery is powered by water from the Royal River) in beautiful Yarmouth, Maine expanding our capacity to meet our growing sales to health and specialty food stores, supermarkets, local restaurants, educational institutions, and to people like you!    If you are in the area and would like to visit the facility, please call us for a scheduled tour.

You will find only real food in our baked goods. We do not use highly processed foods or unnatural food additives, like high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. We refuse to feed these ingredients to our children and we refuse to feed them to you!  In fact, you can actually read and understand all of our ingredients.

Although Spelt is not gluten free, and therefore not appropriate for people with a celiac condition, some people who are sensitive to common wheat are able to enjoy Spelt.  As an “ancient cousin” to common wheat, spelt has a rich history and is of the oldest cultivated grains. Whole spelt has a high protein content and is rich in vitamin Bs and fiber. As with any white flour, some of these nutrients are removed in the processing. Our baked goods may use organic whole spelt, organic unbleached/non-bromated white Spelt or a combination of both Spelt flours. We hope you enjoy our baked goods as much as we do!

The FDA classifies Spelt as wheat because it interprets “wheat” to mean all species in the genus Triticum, which includes spelt and other grains. Despite being considered wheat, spelt (triticum spelta) has different qualities than its modern cousin common wheat (triticum aestivum).
