Tauranga Sourdough Starter FAQs

How does shipping to Tauranga work?

Every order ships with free delivery to any NZ address — Tauranga, Mount Maunganui, the Western Bay, wherever you are. Because the starter is dehydrated, it travels perfectly at room temperature.

Why dehydrated instead of a live starter?

Live starters are fussy travellers. A dehydrated starter is dormant and shelf-stable, so it ships worldwide without a hitch, then wakes up in your kitchen in just a few days with the included instructions.

What if my starter doesn't activate?

You're covered by our 100% activation guarantee. Follow the simple rehydration steps, use the Sourdough Academy for backup, and if it still won't wake up, we'll sort it out.
