🌾 You asked. We tested. And now it’s finally here. 🌾

Starting this week (6/6), we’ll have 100% Whole Wheat Sourdough available at the New Bern Farmers Market! 💗

This one took some trial and error to get where we wanted it, but we’re excited to finally share it with you.

And when we say 100% whole wheat, we mean it:

✔️ Water
✔️ Salt
✔️ 100% Hard Red Whole Wheat Flour

That’s it.

No additives. No conditioners. No extra ingredients you can’t pronounce. Just a simple loaf made with traditional sourdough fermentation.

If you’ve been curious about whole wheat sourdough, we’ll have samples available this week so you can give it a try before taking a loaf home.

Come by, taste it for yourself, and let us know what you think! 🍞💗

You know the worst possible thing that can happen to a sourdough baker? 😅

I somehow managed to use ALL of my active starter AND all of my discard earlier this week… without setting aside any for maintenance.

Absolute horror.

But thankfully, sourdough is also weirdly resilient and magical.

We were able to take some of the water soaking in our starter bucket and use it to reignite our maintenance starter. It took a couple days, but honestly? It was MORE active this morning than usual 👀

Sourdough is crazy. And weird. And stressful. And magical. And delicious.

Just wanted to share our little “oh no” moment from this week 😂💗

☀️ Pink Stand Summer Learning Curve ☀️

This is our first summer with the Pink Stand and let’s just say… eastern North Carolina heat and humidity are giving us a full education 😅

We’re learning as we go when it comes to keeping everything as fresh as possible while also adjusting packaging for the warmer weather.

Starting today, sourdough loaves will be wrapped in butcher paper with the usual plastic bag and twist tie included separately for home use. This helps prevent condensation from building up inside the plastic while the bread waits for pickup in the stand 🍞💗

We’d genuinely love to hear from others too — if anyone has ideas or tricks for handling summer heat and humidity with baked goods, send them our way!

And some exciting news 👀
We’re aiming to have the Pink Stand open for walk-up pickups in June!

Thank you all for learning and growing with us 💗

Good morning, New Bern 💗

We’re set up at the New Bern Farmers Market and ready for another beautiful Saturday!

Fresh sourdough, sweet treats, bundt cakes, and a very limited number of scones are all here waiting for you 👀

Come stroll the market, support local vendors, and grab something fresh while everything is still stocked!

We’ll be here until 2PM 💗

We’re always trying to improve our processes over here — and lately our scones have been selling like absolute wildfire 💗

So naturally, we ordered new pans to help us make more.

The pans arrived late yesterday and apparently we have zero self-control because we immediately decided to test them out 😅

Sometimes great risk brings great reward…

Today it brought scones that somehow managed to come out BOTH underbaked and burnt at the same time. Truly impressive honestly.

We’ve been laughing at ourselves all afternoon, but wanted to give our loyal scone people a heads up that we will have an EXTREMELY limited number of scones at the New Bern Farmers Market tomorrow (5/23).

Thanks for always being along for the ride with us — kitchen chaos and all 💗
