No clue of the brand but do recall seeing it. Even better, some of the
local bakeries made a round cinnamon raisin bread that was my favorite
as a kid. I haven't seen it in 50 years or more.

We used to get round bread like that too. Our was called a milk loaf but I
haven't seen them for a long time.

Could you make something like yours?

I couldn't swear by it, but I'm pretty sure that I have seen a round
loaf around here. I'll keep my eyes open. I don't shop everywhere
so it would have been at one of my usual stores.

The village bakery (when I was a kid) made some every day. The pans were
cylindrical and corrugated to produce the ribs. when closed but "split"
in half when open with one edge hinged. A simple pin kept them closed. I
suppose they could be considered a type of pullman loaf.

I'm not sure if the baking pan is available; but, if it is, I'm
sure a little experimenting could duplicate the (dimly

the shape, rather than any particular crumb or flavor attributes.

Pullman loaves are popular in Japan and Hawaii. Japan style is softer bread made with milk and butter. The Japanese like the square loaves because they like to cut the edges of of sandwiches. This makes for a very soft sandwich experience and they like the looks of sandwiches with square, symmetrical, sides.

Actually it was in the 60s. I remember the ad. It made a big deal out of
the fact that most things we put on bread were round. Like hamburger
patties, balogna, etc. Do a search on google for "wonder round bread"
and you can find a number of pictures.

It's not a brand name; rather it is the word for a spherical loaf of dark

Correct. I have been looking for one of the pans for baking such
loaves at home. The commercial round loaves I originally
inquired about were my starting point my search for the pan. I
thought if I knew what the bread was called, I'd know what to
look for in a pan. Eventually, my search skipped past the
commercial loaf to finding the name of the loaf type and what to
call the pan I was searching for.

Thus far, all I have found are commercial pans to make 4-8 loaves
at a time or vintage/antique pans in unusable condition. There
was a UK web site that offered Mermaid brand milk loaf pans; but,
they have not responded to repeated email requests about shipping
to the US. Bummer! My quest continues.

I just had a look and they sell them on Amazon, but they are out of stock

If you're baking your own bread then the type can certainly vary.
Those round loaves that used to be for sale appear to be nothing more
than white loaf bread, whicih I detest.

That one might be okay, though it doesn't have the side crimps
that make a nice cutting guide and presentation (darker ring).
Maybe I can find a source that sells in quantities less than 100
pieces, because I definitely don't need 100 pans, nor can I
justify spending $20,000.

The Chicago Metallic 4 loaf pan makes exactly what I wantl; but
at $150 a bit more than I'm willing to pay - especially since I'd
only make one loaf at a time.

Yes, and Boston Brown Bread contained no yeast. It depended on
baking soda and buttermilk for leavening. Also, it was a steamed
bread. If baked at home the end of the can was sealed off with
parchment and/or foil.

Commercial BBB often had raisins and sometimes nuts.

Yes, I remember the bread. It was called Golden Circles by Taystee. I remember seeing it at my friend, Eileen's house, and wished my mother would buy it. Instead she would purchase Arnold Brick Oven Bread. A hearty, relatively thickly sliced loaf bread. As it turns out, Mom was buying the better bread but most of friends had Wonderbread. I went through something similar with my son. Raised on freshly squeezed orange juice and Tropicana, he visits friends and want Sunny D-Lite!

[robertle...@gmail.com]

Hi, If my memory serves me right, the loaf was called the Big-T Roll.
I remember it as well.

Kindest regards Robert.

[Nancy2]

In the 70s and 80s, a fad here was Dill Bread...it could be round or rectangular. It was
yummy.

For round, we always have Amana bread flavors in the stores....they have flavors that are always
baked in a round shape. We have many products from the Amana Colonies; good stuff!

The bread yous guys are talking about was, "WONDER BREAD ROUND" sold in local 'corner stores' 1960's. It became my favorite, WONDER bread! Being the loaf of bread was shaped Round, it came in a Round bag too. Crust was awesome. The Round loaf was priced a-little-higher,10-15cents. Oh well, child hood memories I enjoyed while watching, BOZO on TV during lunch-time. And,just Maybe That's why,"WONDER BREAD ROUND" tasted soo great. Oscar Mayer B-O-L-O-G-N-A!
fit perfectly on the round slice of bread. yum, Did ya ever have, O M bologna, fried in butter... on, "WONDER ROUND"?

I agree with the least expensive round/cylinder using an ordinary aluminum can, several sizes available makes great breads/cakes perfect for GIFT-Giving, use wax-paper, grosgrain ribbon, homemade tag, even a paper-bag is delightful. Hope you try it! alovelyV On Tuesday, April 24, 2018 at 8:07:01 AM UTC-5, Ophelia wrote:

I just saw this.
Our local grocery store, Market Basket, sold this when I was a kid and they still make this bread in plain and sometimes cinnamon. Evidently it's a very localized item since you can purchase it my town, Chelmsford, MA, but in not sister's town which is about 10 miles away. I often send a loaf home with family members who miss being sable to buy it. It really is very tasty.

Sunbeam bread made a bread called round and round. It was in the 50s and 60s. I wish I could post a picture. It puzzled me for years that I couldn't find anything about it and finally someone posted a photo in a special group. I was so happy that someone besides me remember that.

The Product you are trying to remember was Big Chief

[Bruce]

Thank you so very much, as I was trying to remember that ;)

[Michael Trew]

A little over 4 years late, unfortunately...

[jmcquown]

Sadly, yes. This is one of the problems with Google Groupers who don't
bother to check the dates on the threads they post new replies to.
Might occasionally be helpful to someone, I suppose. Not in this case.

[Dave Smith]

We can excuse the Google groupers, but what about the idiots that resond
to them?

[Bruce]

So far that's Greg Sorrow, Michael Trew, Jill McGossip and Dave Smith.

[Jeßus]

It's OK. I was patiently waiting for a reply. Seems that it was worth
it.

[Hank Rogers]

I remember round bread, but never noticed the brands. I vaguely
remember a big chief brand peanut butter.

Simple, find out where they live, and dump trash on their lawns.

Congrats master. That's a quadruple ass sniff!

I don't think Andrew's response was out of date or anything. It was
way after the question but I don't consider it the usual google
grouper reply 20 years later.

If I read a post like that, even 5 years later, and I knew the
answer and the platform allowed me, I'd respond too if I thought I
knew the answer.

I just didn't find any references to Big Chief Bread in a cursory
search - just lot of people calling themselves "Big Chief" that had
"beards" (you might want to check that out, Greg).

You can still get the milk loaf pans from restaurant supply companies. The ones I saw could make 4 loaves at a time. Better get them while you can!

I stand corrected (by myself). there is memorabilia, but no

It was called Taystee Golden Circles. Then Wonder made a round bread, too.

The round loaves used to be a thing back in the day and the pans can still be bought from industry suppliers. My guess is that these archaic breads can be still be bought in some location. Those round loaves make it difficult to cut off the crusts though.

[Cindy Hamilton]

Why would I want to do that? The crust is the best part.

These are loaves of bread baked in a can. People that cut the crust off of sandwiches don't bake their bread in round shapes. Ideally, they'd use a pullman loaf.

Circle Round Bread. I believe it was made by Tastee. They went out of business. I think a variation of Japanese milk bread. The pan is called Original Majimaya Pan. Hard to find. Bought mine YEARS ago from Japanese shop. Try eBay.

[jmcquown]

Given that we recently determined the OP from 2017 (l not -l) is likely
dead, he won't be checking eBay for anything.
