Loving the Loaf

09/15/2026

Delafield & Wales-area friends — Beginner Sourdough Classes are coming up September 28–October 2!

More than half of our seats are already reserved, but we still have openings in both afternoon and evening classes throughout the week.

If you’ve wanted to learn sourdough but aren’t sure where to begin—or you’ve tried before and gotten frustrated—I’d love to help.

I’ll walk you through the entire sourdough process using the same simple, practical method I teach in all of my classes:

• No daily feedings
• No discard
• No experience needed

We’ll go through everything together—from caring for your starter and mixing your dough to shaping, scoring, and baking a beautiful loaf.

I’ve now had the privilege of helping more than 3,500 beginners learn to make sourdough, and one of my favorite things is seeing someone realize, “I can actually do this!”

If you’ve been thinking about learning sourdough, I’d love to have you join me!

Whether you’ve been wanting to learn sourdough for months or you’ve tried following YouTube and TikTok and still feel completely overwhelmed—this class is for YOU! ❤️

Wales, Delafield, and surrounding area friends — we begin sourdough classes on Monday, June 8th, and will be here through Thursday, June 12th.

Some prefer early in the week.
Some wait until later in the week.
Afternoon sessions are often quieter.
Evenings are perfect after work.

If you've been thinking about learning sourdough, now is a wonderful time to join us!

Whether you're a complete beginner or someone who has struggled getting started, these classes are designed to make sourdough simple and approachable—even for busy households.

You'll learn a simple, practical sourdough method that fits real life—including how to maintain a healthy starter without daily feedings. Feed it only when you're ready to bake, not every day!

There are still seats available across several sessions, so now is a great time to reserve the day that best fits your schedule.
