Since 2015

I have passion for baking and was lucky enough to bake on my weekends at home with my mother. I then decided to become a baker. This sourdough originates from Altamura Italy, where I was lucky enough to make some beautiful sourdoughs!

Characteristics

My sourdough is actually very unique as it travels with me all over the world and it has children in many countries and is a pleasure to make bread with.
