Customer Reviews
I am a novice bread maker and this starter has gotten me off to the perfect start, thank you!!
The instructions were easy to follow and the starter is amazing! I've made two successful loafs and they were perfect.
I have to say I was dubious … Once it arrived .. with a 2 page instruction, I was initially overwhelmed .. but I decided to just take 1 step at a time and ticked off when I had completed each day. I even took my starter with me when I had a few days away in the Isle of Man … and continued the process. Hence she is now named Isla.
2 weeks down the line and I have a fantastic starter! Yesterday I made my best bake yet! I have found leaving the risen dough in the fridge for 24-48 hrs makes a perfect loaf!
If you’re thinking of buying from here … do it .. don’t get overwhelmed by the process .. take it day by day, it’s a journey!!!
Starter is active and has been easy to care for
