Sourdough Starter Questions — Answered

How fast does it ship to the UK?

Every order ships free from our Canadian micro-bakery straight to your UK address. Dehydrated starter is shelf-stable, so the journey doesn't weaken it one bit — it waits patiently until you add water.

How soon can I bake with it?

Most bakers see a bubbly, active starter within a few days of rehydrating, and your first loaf isn't far behind. Compare that to starting from scratch, which can take weeks of daily feeds before it's strong enough to bake.

Is it worth buying instead of making my own?

If you've tried growing a starter from scratch and ended up with a jar of sad, sluggish gloop, you're not alone. Buying an established, dehydrated culture skips the riskiest part entirely — you begin with a proven strain that already knows how to rise.
