The Mad Baker

16/05/2026

Unfortunately we won’t be at the markets tomorrow after a small fire at the bakery. Thankfully everyone is okay, but we need to take the time to clean up and get everything sorted. ❤️

A huge special thanks goes to an absolute local legend — Tony from the chippy — who jumped in straight away to help us out. Small towns really do show up for each other when it matters most.

If you’re around this weekend, make sure you go support Tony and The Chippy. Good people deserve good support, and we’re incredibly grateful for everything he’s done for us. 🙌

The Mad Baker went for a quick dip in the stinger net… and came out with more than just a cool off 🐟🌊

Only he could turn a swim into a fishing trip — scooping up a barra with a bread crate (after a quick run to the car!) like it’s just another day on the tools 😂

Fresh catch, salty air, and a story for the ages.

Who needs a rod when you’ve got a crate?

Two markets, one delicious dilemma 👀

This weekend we’re splitting up!

Head down to Mission Markets to see Ben slinging your favourites — and don’t miss the beautiful arty addition by Kylie while you’re there 🎨 Perfect little browse while you pick up your bread.

Or, if you’re chasing a cooler change, we’ll be up in Yungaburra soaking in those fresh Tablelands temps 🌿

Wherever you go… we’ve got you covered 🤍

Guess what’s blending this week… 👀

Green. Fresh. A little nutty. A little sharp.

There’s something about the way these simple ingredients come together…
but we’ll let you do the guessing first.

Our weekly cob sauce is here —
and she’s smooth and dangerously more-ish.

💭 What do you think it is?

Be the first to try tomorrow night at 5pm! 🌟

Behind the scenes of pizza prep 🍕🔥

Every sourdough base we serve starts right here — rolled, hand-shaped and par-baked in-house.

We prep them this way so when it hits the oven, you get that perfect combo: crisp base, airy crust and that signature sourdough flavour in every bite.

No shortcuts. No store-bought bases. Just real dough, made properly.

This is what goes into every pizza at

Even our rye loaf is ✔️ kid tested, ✔️ kid approved.

You know it’s good when the toughest critics (aka kids) are coming back for more — and not just the white, but the rye too 🙌

Made slow, the proper way. No shortcuts. Just real sourdough, real flavour, and bread that everyone at the table will eat.

Because good bread shouldn’t be “just for the adults.”
