The Main Event

This Sourdough Bread Making Workshop is the perfect experience for anyone who has always dreamt of baking beautiful artisan bread at home.

Sourdough can seem mysterious, all those starters, stretches, folds and fermentation times can feel a little intimidating at first. That’s exactly why this hands-on, all-day workshop is such a brilliant experience. It cuts through the confusion and gives complete beginners and enthusiastic home bakers a clear, practical understanding of how sourdough really works.

Led by experienced bakers, guests will discover that great sourdough starts long before the loaf itself. Throughout the day, they’ll learn how to create, care for and truly understand a natural sourdough starter, the living culture at the heart of every delicious loaf. Better still, they’ll make their very own starter, ready to continue their sourdough journey at home.

This is a fully hands-on experience where participants will mix, shape and bake their own loaves while learning the techniques that give sourdough its incredible flavour, texture and crust. They’ll even shape fresh bread rolls to enjoy with lunch, mill their own flour and discover creative ways to turn sourdough discard into delicious sweet treats.

Along the way, expert bakers explain not just the “how” but the “why” behind each stage, helping guests build real confidence instead of simply following a recipe. By the end of the day, what once felt complicated suddenly feels achievable.

Perfect for foodies, creative gift seekers, aspiring bakers or anyone wanting a break from the usual gift ideas, this workshop offers something truly memorable. They'll leave with fresh bread, new skills and a bubbling sourdough starter to nurture at home.
