SOURDOUGH STARTER KITS ARE BACK! 🥳
Ive had a huge influx of messages asking and now I can finally let you know that they are here, but the catch is, there is minimal stock and once Ive sold out I won't be able to get more until the end of October.

Starter kits are $50
-They each include a oval banneton and cloth cover (proofing basket)
-A plastic dough scraper (really great for cutting the dough, helping shape it and lifting it gently)
-A lame used to score the bread to open it up beautifully) with a blade cover and extra blades
- A Danish dough whisk (perfect for helping to mix that dough thoroughly )
- A 550ml jar of active sourdough starter (you're ultimate starting point for all sourdough creations is my healthy & happy sourdough starter, that is fed multiple times a week)

Each loaf of sourdough is long fermented for a minimum of 18 hours and then baked as close to pick up as possible to ensure your dough really is fresh as possible.
I do bake most days but please get your orders to me within 48 hours of when you would like it (or earlier if possible) as I only take on a maximum amount of orders each day.

Im not sure if it's this Wintery 🥶 weather, that is absolutely the perfect excuse to keep the oven on to cook the sourdough, or the school holidays and the extra time on people's hands, to start on their sourdough journey but the sourdough kits have been flying out the door.
Don't fret, more are on the way and should be due in the coming days. You don't want to miss out on the next delivery though, so send me a message now so I can get you on the waitlist.

I've been a little absent on the social media front- homeschooling mum life has had me a little preoccupied 🫠 but I have still been behind the scenes in the kitchen, baking away my regular sourdough orders & packing up sourdough starter kits ready for a lifetime of sourdough happiness in other homes.
So, here's me saying HI 👋 and welcome to the new followers, who I've missed recently.
I'm just a message away for sourdough orders- (pick up Helensvale ) or to set you up with your own sourdough tools to make your own wonderful creations (post available).

SE Qld just had a pretty big week here- Cyclone Alfred 🌀 made his debut and left his presence to be known for far too long after. 🫠

So, of course, one of the biggest issues here (from the Sunshine Coast- Northern NSW) was that the shops were stripped bare from pre- cyclone to well after.

But, I was grateful I had used that anxious waiting time to bake up a storm and had made several sourdough sandwich loaves, normal sourdough, sourdough choc-chip cookies, sourdough Granola and I wasn't risking any power outage taking out my sourdough starter, so I dehydrated some starter just to be safe. There wasn't much time to take extra photos & videos, but I promise to get some extra recipes on here soon!

As the week went on, I started receiving multiple messages from others about how glad they were to have fresh baked sourdough to pull out their freezer, message requests for my bread recipe and other sourdough recipes that they could experiment with while stuck at home ,even messages to tell me of their great success baking sourdough in their bbq, when they had no power. How amazing is that! I love it, I love it all!

I heard these first-hand, beautiful stories of how people were getting creative in their own homes with real ingredients and making their own real food for their families, instead of the necessity to rely on the supermarket shortages.

All of these people only had one thing in common. Active, happy & healthy sourdough starter from my kitchen. 🫙

Anyone else want to jump on the sourdough wagon and be able to make your own delicious creations and have food available when YOU need it, not just when it's on a shelf to buy??? 🤷‍♀️

because the only thing better than fresh sourdough on a Sunday morning, is home baked sourdough that YOU made yourself and saved the $$ not going to a artisan bakery. 🙌🏼

Do you have any little people who don't like sourdough & prefer white bread still? 😬 I know, their crazy, right!? 😳

Well, there is an answer. You can make your own sourdough sandwich loaves and it can taste like soft sandwich bread from the shops but sooo much better, full of real substance to fill you up, instead of leaving you empty like white bread & isn't full of nasty ingredients.
I can confirm that this recipe has been approved by the little person pictured here stealing the bread, as I sliced it up. 😅

This week, I trialled a new recipe, and it's been my yummiest yet. I haven't had a chance to write it up yet, but let me know if you'd like it by putting a 🍞 in comments, and I'll pop it up ASAP.

Why would you still choose bread from the supermarket??🥖🍞

When you choose homemade sourdough, you are choosing bread with only three ingredients- flour, salt & water versus the twelve ingredients in 'sourdough' from the supermarket. I won't list the number of nasties in big brand sandwich bread (I'll leave it for another day 😅)
Just because something says it's something, doesn't mean you can believe it's the real thing. 🫣

I have had ALOT on enquiries from day dot about wether I could post my sourdough starter or a sourdough starter kit, well I'm back here to announce that I can finally post Australia wide.

My sourdough starter is strong and healthy 💪 and makes delicious sourdough goodies. I have dehydrated my starter, so you don't need to start your own from scratch and wait weeks for it to be active to bake with. Instead, I will include the instructions how to rehydrate your starter and my bread recipe and you will have everything you need to start your own sourdough journey.

Did you know that I bake to order?
To ensure each that each sourdough loaf is fresh and loaves aren't wasted I make them to order.
If there is a day that you would like to pick up a regular weekly order, reach out and I can have your bread ready for you each week. 🥖

Send me a message if you'd like to order. ❤️
