Shipping Time Questions, Answered

How long does delivery to Australia take?

Delivery times vary with your address — metro areas are generally quicker than regional and remote ones. The good news is the wait changes nothing about your starter: dehydrated flakes stay dormant in transit, so a longer journey never spoils the bake.

Will my starter still work if delivery is slow?

Yes. That is the whole point of flakes. Unlike a live culture that needs constant feeding, a dehydrated starter simply sleeps until you wake it. Follow the included steps, give it a few feeds, and it will bubble away like it never left the bakery.

How soon can I bake after it arrives?

Most bakers are mixing their first dough within days of waking their starter. Feed it as directed, watch for a reliable rise, and you are away — fresh sourdough from a starter that crossed the world to reach your kitchen.
