BANNETON BUNDLE & SAVE 25%

If you’re baking regularly, having two bannetons makes life a lot easier. While one loaf is baking, the next one can be happily proving away—no waiting around and no rushing your dough.

It’s a simple little upgrade, but it makes a big difference. You’ll get a smoother baking flow, more bread on the table faster, and often better consistency from bake to bake, with great support for your dough and a lovely crust every time.

Gluten-free sourdough at home has never been easier.

03/05/2026

The cooler seasons are here, and everything begins to slow down, including your sourdough.

Fermentation takes longer, bubbles form more gently, and your dough asks for a little more patience. But that’s not a bad thing. It’s a reminder to slow down with it. To observe, adjust, and trust the process.

Sometimes, better bread just takes a little more time 🤍

If you’re new here — hello and thanks for following along! 👋
We’re not huge on social media because most days you’ll find us doing what matters most: packing your orders and looking after our customers. We’re a small family-run business, and it’s mostly me (Anh), my dad, and my husband Tom behind the scenes — with some occasional “help” from our daughter Audrey too 💛

Every order is carefully packed by us — the owners — and dispatched from our Melbourne warehouse. We never started this business to scale quickly — just good old-fashioned service — so we don’t use third-party fulfilment or drop-shipping. If anything ever comes up, you can reach our team directly via the website chat for fast, personal one-on-one support.

WHY WE LOVE A WHOLE-RYE STARTER
The reason is simple. We love the taste, it smells amazing (like fruit), ferments faster & can perk up any sourdough starter’s activity (can be mixed together with ordinary bread flour).

Grab a Rye Starter Jar Kit to kick-start or (re)start your sourdough journey at home. Inside, you’ll find our incredibly active organic rye starter, a beautifully crafted jar to house your new Sourdough Mate, a handy stirring spatula, and enough organic rye flour to get your starter active and thriving within days.

Mastering sourdough isn’t a fixed finish line — it’s more of a journey.

Most people feel comfortable within a few months, especially when baking regularly with quality flour. True mastery comes from repetition, observation, and learning how your own environment behaves — not from chasing perfection. And even after years of baking, there’s always something new to learn.
