True craftsmanship from Helgeroa!
Roa Micro Bakery bakes real bread using real ingredients, with genuine passion.
This small, local artisan bakery has chosen a different path, focusing on traditional baking methods. It offers sourdough-based products made with long fermentation times and stone-milled flour from Kvelde Mølle. With an emphasis on craftsmanship and local ingredients, the bakery produces classic breads, sweet yeast pastries, and cakes for special occasions.
Each loaf is made with sourdough that ferments slowly, resulting in a distinctive flavor and texture that reflects a deep respect for the craft. The bakery also offers tempting sourdough cinnamon buns and other sweet specialties.
Gluten-free options are available for those with coeliac disease, ensuring that more people can enjoy quality baked goods.
With a strong belief in understanding the journey of grain from field to table, the couple behind the bakery, Stian and Anne Marie Sletsjø, combine their passion for food with a strong local connection.
In addition to the shop, leftover items from the day are placed on a shelf outside the entrance, where payment can be made via Vipps.

Kvelde Mølle
In the fertile Lågendalen valley, you’ll find Kvelde Mølle – one of the few remaining rural mills in Norway, with roots dating all the way back to the 1300s. Here, grain has been milled into flour for generations, and the traditions live on to this day.
At Kvelde Mølle, everything is about true craftsmanship. High-quality flour is produced from grain grown by local farmers in Lågendalen and surrounding areas – one of Norway’s best regions for grain production. Stone milling gives the flour a richer flavor, excellent baking properties, and a natural character. This is pure, unblended flour with no additives – honest products with a short journey from field to finished flour.
Kvelde Mølle was among the first in Norway to offer flour labeled “Nyt Norge” (“Enjoy Norway”), and today produces more than 35 different products – from finely milled wheat flour to coarse rye, spelt, and ancient grains.

Flour from Kvelde Mølle is available at the on-site mill shop in Kvelde, as well as in selected grocery stores and specialty shops in the region. In the mill shop, you’ll also find a selection of local food products.
