Zena Cameron reviewed: Introduction to Sourdough Bread Making class

"Fantastic day on the Beginners Sourdough course with Ian last Friday. We were made to feel super welcome right from the outset which set a great tone for the day. Leant how to make 3 loaves in small class surroundings. Delish lunch and cake to top off an excellent value for money day. I have used the sourdough and basket today to make my first sourdough loaf since, instructions given were easy to follow and am certain my loaf will be just as good as the one I made with Ian. I thoroughly rec trying this, laughs and learning rolled into one."

Helen Singleton reviewed: Introduction to Sourdough Bread Making class

"Really great course. Good mix of theory and practical coming away with three lovely items to eat! I wanted to wait until I had done a loaf at home before I left a review but with the knowledge gained and the stater from the course I made the most awesome loaf (in my opinion!!). It was a lovely day and I came away with exactly what I wanted to improve. "

StagHill Bakes responded:

"Thank you for such a great review Helen. I'm so pleased you found the day to be useful. Happy baking! Ian"

Deborah Todd reviewed: Introduction to Sourdough Bread Making class

"I absolutely loved this course. Great vibe and really helpful. It was lovely to see Ian's beautiful home and get to make bread in such a relaxed and informative atmosphere. Bonding as a group came easily as Ian was such a helpful and charismatic teacher. On top of this I made great tasting bread (verified by my family) and feel I have the skills to continue doing so. "

StagHill Bakes responded:

"What a fantastic review Deborah, I’m delighted that you enjoyed our day together and that your family enjoyed your breads too. Happy baking, Ian"
