It started with one stubborn jar of starter named Doreen.
Lebo baked her first loaf on a Sunday in 2019, feeding a sourdough starter on the kitchen counter until it had a name and a personality. Word got round the neighbourhood fast.
Five years later Doreen is still going, and every loaf, croissant and cake we sell still gets mixed, folded and shaped by hand in our little bakery off Chelmsford Road. No preservatives, no packet mixes — just flour, water, salt and time.
