The difference is in the baking…and in every little detail!

Oven-Baked Tradition dog and cat food is slowly oven-baked at low temperatures. Unlike extrusion baking used by most brands (about 95%), our unique baking process is what sets us apart. We believe your companions deserve the very best, which is why their well-being always comes first. At Oven-Baked Tradition, every oven-baked bag is a promise: wholesome nutrition, simple ingredients, and a slow baking process that brings out the full flavour, aroma, and authentic freshness in every bite.

The oven-baked goodness

  • A higher proportion of fresh meat in every bite
  • Irresistible taste with exceptional nutritional value
  • Preserves protein quality and the integrity of essential vitamins
  • Made in small batches to ensure unmatched freshness and quality
  • Always meat as the first ingredient

Our recipes are
free of undesirable ingredients

The everyday well-being of dogs and cats is at the heart of everything we do. That’s why our recipes are always made without hormones, antibiotics, artificial flavours, or preservatives. For companions with sensitive tummies, Oven-Baked Tradition has also developed hypoallergenic recipes, including chicken-free and even vegan options, to meet the specific needs of pets with food sensitivities and allergies.
