LOVE LOCAL, SHOP LOCAL: Evendine Bakery

Hands up, who bought all the bread baking gear last year in lockdown one, only to turn out flat, solid-as-a-rock sourdoughs that were good for nothing other than propping up that dodgy kitchen table leg?

This time around, save yourselves the misery - some things (romantic as the home-baker idea may seem) - are best left to the professionals. 

We are blessed to have the Evendine Sourdough Bakery on our doorstep; Aleksandra moved to the UK from Poland, leaving a great big sourdough-shaped hole in her heart, so she launched her bakery near Malvern and has been delighting her customers ever since.

Aleksandra uses other fantastic local businesses in her baking: the flours hail from Gloucestershire’s Shipton Mill, salt is sent from Droitwich Salt and water is sourced from the Evendine Spring on the Malvern Hills.

Head to the Evendine Sourdough Bakery to see Aleksandra's glorious bakes for yourself and order for local collection or delivery through the site, via email (evendine.sourdough@gmail.com) or by phone +44 7312109464.
