Starting the year on a high!
So many of our customers won or retained their Michelin stars, and we were thrilled to support them along the way.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look from our bakery!
From autolyse to oven spring
Understanding fermentation.
Mastering gluten structure.
Controlling steam.
Respecting heat.
Sourdough isn’t just baking — it’s precision, patience and powerful equipment working together.
And yes… we end it with zero control over sourdough pizza indulgence
This is how we build real artisan bakers.

Every time I travel for a consultancy, I take my starter with me — she’s my true companion. From kitchen to kitchen, we craft sourdough together — my partner in every bake, every training, and every success 🌾✈️🔥

Bakers at work! 🍞
Kneading the dough is one of the most satisfying parts of making bread. This is how it happens at a local bakery!
It’s clear to see that teamwork makes the dream work! 💪😍

I’ve definitely neglected this account a little (okay… A LOT). Not because I stopped baking though. Actually quite the opposite. I’ve been baking a ton!! I’ve been having way too much fun growing my (not so little) Olisa’s Kitchen community on that other app (🤭) and sharing my work there.
So this is my official return to Instagram. I’m excited to start posting here more consistently, sharing my growing love for naturally leavened sourdough alongside my first loves: custom cakes, royal icing sugar cookies, and super pretty sweet treats.
If you enjoy beautiful bakes, intentional processes, and especially the art and technique behind all things sweet, I’m really glad you’re here.

This was my first time using einkorn flour, and I genuinely love this grain! The bread baked up beautifully, and the crumb structure is my definition of perfect. It is open enough without being overly open, the way a lot of people expect sourdough to look. It is not tight at all. It is soft, moist, and versatile enough to use for anything!
The flavor is slightly buttery and only a little nutty. To me, it’s not as buttery as Kamut or Khorasan, and it is not as nutty as spelt, but it adds body to the loaf without giving that heavy whole wheat taste. The crust was thin and crispy, which I love, especially since I do not enjoy thick crusts. And because einkorn speeds up bulk fermentation, it is perfect for days when I want to move dough along more quickly. It ranks very high for me in all of the ancient grains I have tried!

Watch how our skilled bakers prepare our special seeded sourdough before leaving it to cold ferment 🤩
Did you know that our seeded sourdough doesn’t just contain seeds on the outside? Our seed mix is incorporated throughout the dough before each loaf is shaped and left to prove. This, along with the mix of malt & white flour, imparts extra crunch and flavour to each loaf.
… And tell us in the comments: do you know which 3 seeds we use? 😏

This loaf started over a century ago.
Romanov — my 100+ year old sourdough starter — still fermenting, still teaching me that time is the most powerful ingredient.
