BAKERY PROFILE: The Fairlie Bakehouse
Franz Lieber - Chef and Owner
site fresh every day and pride
ourselves in sourcing local
produce wherever possible. We
are passionate about creating
interesting pie flavours as well
as including the classics”.
Talking to Franz about his
passion for wonderful pies was
a pleasure and made my mouth
water! You wouldn't think a
small town in the middle of
nowhere makes the best pies
in New Zealand, but it does!
Franz arrived from Austria in
1979 with his wife Christine
and aren’t we lucky he did.
A long time chef, Franz has
worked for The Hyatt Hotel
Group, then The Chateau on the
Park in Christchurch and then
owned Arrowtown's bakery in
the 1990's to name a few. Franz
moved to his own bakery in
Fairlie five years ago. “At Fairlie
Bakehouse we believe fresh is
best! We make everything on
Barker’s products fall into two
categories for Franz - firstly the
quality and taste is exceptional
and consistent, with the bonus
being they are local. “We have
used Barker’s for a number of
years and most notably in my
Pork Belly Pie where we use
the Apple Sauce. The Raspberry
Preserve and the chutneys are
a favourite too.”
Franz doesn’t just stock his
bakery which doubles as a
café - "We sold 1,000 pies
on Waitangi day!" - as the
Lieber Factory supplies local
businesses as well as select
clients in Auckland and
Wellington.
It has been easy to see why
The Fairlie Bakehouse has been
named one of the Canterbury
and Upper South Island's
fastest-growing businesses.
The bakery, whose 13 full-time
and seven part-time workers
produce eight varieties of
pies, was named the region's
fastest-growing business in the
retail and consumer products
category at the Deloitte Fast
50 regional awards, as well
as winning the People Choice
Award in South Canterbury for
2 consecutive years, and the
Hospitality Industry Award. "It's
quite known now, so people
are stopping in at Fairlie."
Franz told me Lieber means
‘love’ in German, well we love
his pies!

then add the rice, cook for a further two minutes.Add the vegetable
stock in four equal quantities, allowing each addition to be absorbed
into the rice before you add the next. Continue to cook the rice just past

down. Scoop the rice from the saucepan into a mixing bowl, stir for 2
minutes to rid excess heat.

cheese. Taste and adjust seasoning. Pour into a swiss roll tin, even out
and chill in the freezer.

the parmesan cheese.

Make an even tube of rice mixture and roll away from you to shape
this into a cylinder. Unravel the cling film, and cut the croquettas into
even sized pieces. Coat in the flour, followed by the egg and finally the
breadcrumbs. Chill (or freeze if not using straight away) for at least 2
hours.
6. Heat deep fry oil to 165ºC and deep fry until golden. Drain on paper
towel, sprinkle with a little salt. Serve with Barker’s Piquant Bell

Welcome to our Autumn
newsletter. As I sit here waiting
for my son, Tomas’s mini van
to collect him for school I am
totally inspired by the beautiful
colours of the trees and their
leaves. It is indeed a beautiful
time of year but that nip in the
air has certainly crept up on us
and winter is fast approaching.
So what better time of the year
than now to launch our new and
exciting range of ‘Hot & Spicy'
Sauces. A team of technologists
have worked tirelessly behind
the scenes along with our
consultant chef, Paul Jobin, to
weave their magic so we could
bring an inspiring and great
tasting range of new sauces
to the market. At the same
time we have reinvigorated
our ‘Traditional’ favourites
and they too will delight your
customers' taste buds.
If you haven’t tasted some of
our new sauces please do call
our customer services desk
and ask for some samples and
then view our new website:
www.barkersprofessional.nz
for inspiring ideas and recipes.
As many of you are aware we
are refreshing our logo and
labels and in doing so are
bringing a more ‘professional’,
clean and modern feel to our
presentation. We are indeed
Barker Fruit Processors Ltd
PO Box 100, Geraldine 7956, South Canterbury, New Zealand.

Website: www.barkersprofessional.nz
excited about our new look and
in particular very proud of our
new Barker’s Professional
logo as it beautifully illustrates
the level of professionalism and
value we offer the market and
our customers.
During the refresh we have also
taken notice of the discussion
surrounding sugar and salt,
and we thought it timely to
set guidelines around product
development for levels of salt
and sugar in our chutneys and
savoury sauces. So we have
tweaked where we have needed
to for some of our products. Now
our entire chutney and sauce
ranges have been designed with
the following criteria for sugar
and salt.
Sodium Targets:
FSANZ – 474mg/100g
Heart Fdtn – 450mg/100g
OUR AIM:
Sodium < 450mg/100g
(salt <1150mg/100g)
Sugar < 35g/100g
The health and wellness food
trend continues to grow as
does the popularity of Greek
yoghurt. As a result we thought
it timely to launch our new
"Fruit for Yoghurt" range and
what a lovely range to have as
part of your breakfast offering.
Combining fruit with seeds
provides the perfect partner for
plain yoghurt and together they
deliver the ultimate experience
for your customer.
We never grow tired of bringing
new products to the market to
excite our customers so keep
a look out in September as we
have wonderful new smoothies,
dessert sauces and Anathoth
Farm marmalades coming to the
market.
Enjoy all these great products
while keeping happy and healthy
during winter.
Regards
Nicky
We welcome any feedback on
this action.
Do keep in mind though that
our underlying aspiration for
any product we release to
market must be ‘best tasting’
in category so we have NO
intentions of compromising on
taste or flavour.
