The Story of Honest Sourdough
At Honest Sourdough, we are dedicated to the art of sourdough baking. Our passion lies in creating artisanal breads using natural ingredients and traditional methods. We take pleasure in the baking process, but our greatest joy comes from knowing that you savour every bite of our sourdough creations.
Our Sourdough Journey
Honest Sourdough was established in July 2024, but our origins are from 2020, when during the Covid lockdown, Steve (like many others) took up sourdough baking as a hobby. This continued as 1-2 loaves a week for home use, and occasionally for friends and family.
​
When in Spring 2024 Steve's work contract ended, he decided that rather than find another project management role, he would semi-retire; but how to fill the time...? A casual remark from Chris turned into the intention of Chris and Steve to provide a commercial bakery partnership to supply sourdough products to Hallaton and the surrounding area.
​
Central to this business is a vision to bring the unique flavors and textures of sourdough bread to our community, and to provide individual breads to meet each household's requirements. We craft high-quality sourdough bread products using a blend of time-honoured techniques, creativity and the finest ingredients. For us, Honest Sourdough is a place of exploration, innovation, and a celebration of the natural goodness of sourdough baking.
