Join our Bread & Pizza Class for Two
Join us for a hands-on Sourdough Bread & Pizza Class for Two, designed for pairs who love to bake, learn, and create together. Whether you’re partners, friends, or siblings, this immersive 5-hour workshop is the perfect way to dive into the world of sourdough baking — from crusty artisan bread to perfectly chewy pizza dough.
Master the Art of Sourdough Baking
In this comprehensive class, you and your baking partner will work side by side to mix, knead, shape, and bake sourdough bread and pizza dough from scratch. You’ll gain a deep understanding of how to care for your starter, develop flavour through fermentation, and confidently bake at home.
Shape, Score & Bake Together
Get creative as you shape and score your loaves, turning each into a beautiful, signature creation. You’ll also prepare and bake a pizza to enjoy during the class, learning professional techniques for achieving that perfect golden crust.
Bake, Learn & Take Home
Throughout the class, you’ll create not only delicious bread and pizza to enjoy on the spot, but also take home your own freshly mixed pizza dough and sourdough starter — along with everything you need to keep baking at home.

Sourdough Starter FAQ
What is a sourdough starter?
A sourdough starter is a living culture of wild yeast and bacteria that ferments flour and water. It’s not the dough itself — it’s what you use to leaven your bread. You add a portion of your active starter to your flour, water, and salt to make dough. It replaces commercial yeast, giving your bread rise, flavour, and character through natural fermentation.
Is the starter ready to use when it arrives?
Yes. This is a live, stiff sourdough starter that ships fresh every Monday. Once it arrives, feed it once using the included instructions. You can mix dough the same day.
How should I store the starter?
Store your starter in the fridge, either in the test tube or a small jar. Feed it weekly to keep it healthy and active.
How do I use the test tube to track fermentation?
Once empty, reuse the tube to track bulk fermentation. Add 10–12 g of mixed dough and mark the starting level. When it rises to the top, your dough is ready to shape.
