Flowers Foods sourdough loafs and high-protein loafs

Flowers Foods has added a new higher-protein loaf to its Nature’s Own Life lineup and expanded its Dave’s Killer Bread portfolio to include Supreme Sourdough.

The company said the additions meet growing consumer interest in higher-protein foods and better-for-you sourdough loaves. They are part of a broader rollout that also includes Nature’s Own Perfectly Crafted thick-sliced Italian Herb loaf and a reintroduction of Dave’s Killer Bread loaf Oats & Blues.

These follow a variety of new products launched by the company in the first half of 2025, including additional Keto offerings from Nature’s Own Life, an expanded selection of small loaves from the Nature’s Own and Wonder brands, Wonder snack cakes, Dave’s Killer Bread organic sandwich rolls and snack bites and sourdough-style bread from Canyon Bakehouse.

“Our continued investment in innovation is yielding powerful results as we reshape our portfolio to reflect evolving market trends,” said Mark Courtney, chief brand officer at Flowers Foods.

“Our newest products build on strong momentum from earlier this year and bring fresh, differentiated options that speak directly to today’s consumers.”

Products recently added to the Flowers portfolio include:
