HOW IT WORKS

A Taste of France in Every Loaf

A Touch of Parisian Magic: My Story as a Parisian Little Girl
I grew up in the 12th arrondissement in Paris, in Rue du Rendez-vous, a neighborhood that felt like a little village. Every day, I passed by our local bakery, where true sourdough French bread (“pain au levain”) was baked in a traditional firewood oven. The aroma of freshly baked bread filled the street, and my father would never buy our daily bread anywhere else. Years later, when I chose to make gluten-free pastries and breads instead of pursuing biological research, I knew sourdough had to be part of it. It adds life, love, and soul to the bread—a magic that I’m proud to share with the world. Making your own bread is not just a craft; it’s a deeply rewarding experience, especially when you can feed yourself and your loved ones with something so personal and nourishing.

Step 1: Sign Up

Begin your own French sourdough adventure by choosing the subscription plan that suits you best. Whether you’re new to baking or a seasoned home baker, our boxes arrive monthly so you can bake at your own pace.

Step 2: Receive Your Dehydrated Sourdough Starter

We carefully prepare a dehydrated sourdough starter derived from the same beloved culture I grew up with. This makes it easy to ship anywhere without losing the magic. Simply follow our simple rehydration steps to bring it back to life.

Step 3: Discover Your Monthly Theme & Flour Mixes

Each box features a French-inspired theme—think rustic countryside loaves or Parisian café favorites. You’ll get pre-measured, carefully curated gluten-free mixes that capture the essence of each month’s theme.

Step 4: Rehydrate & Feed Your Starter

Combine the dehydrated starter with water and flour according to the included instructions. Over a few days, watch your sourdough come to life, bubbling and growing stronger—just like the loaves I admired as a little girl in Paris.

Step 5: Mix, Shape & Bake

Use our step-by-step guide to mix the included gluten-free flour blend with your rehydrated starter. After letting your dough rest, shape it, score it, and bake it in your own oven. Feel the same excitement I had watching the neighborhood baker pull loaves from the firewood oven—only now, you’re creating that magic at home!

Step 6: Share & Savor

Slice into your freshly baked loaf, inhale that warm, comforting aroma, and share it with friends and family. Whether it’s a classic baguette or a twist on French country bread, every slice carries a bit of that authentic Parisian spirit.
