This amazing starter traces its roots back to the San Francisco gold rush (really!!) but has been living and mingling with Kensington Markets eclectic denizens for the past several years. It’s been in continuous use since 1850! 

This starter makes great bread. See my reviews below!! 

Each order includes a packet of dry starter along with detailed instructions for activating and maintaining the starter, as well as links to some great recipes!  It’s pretty fool proof and you will be baking amazing loaves in no time. 

Order now to take advantage of our current promotion offering free shipping World Wide.  All orders will be processed the same or next business day.

I work really hard to keep this incredible starter happy and healthy, and I hope you will love it as much as I do. Happy baking!

Great sourdough

This was my 3rd starter, the first two didn't work out, then I found Kensington. It made all the difference and my starter is strong!

I just started my sourdough experience and it started of great with the activator pack. I followed the directions step by step and had great success. so far I have made a loaf of bread, pancakes and chocolate chip cookies.

A bubbling crude ..

With patience and following your instructions to a “T” I had a bubbling jar of Gold Rush era sourdough starter!! .. took about 5 days to start seeing things dramatically change … like an overflowing jar of magic! Fantastic results , delicious bread !
