  • Sourdough Starters & Baking Tools

    Nothing better than a house filled with the aroma of homemade bread. The satisfaction of making an artisan sourdough loaf yourself connects you to your ancestors, who have probably made bread for centuries. We have been making our own sourdough bread for over 16 years now and still enjoy every loaf we produce. We offer regular and gluten-free sourdough starters, eGuides, basic equipment, and workshops. With the right tools and a helping hand, you can succeed in making bread at home - regular and gluten-free.

  • Culinary Herbs & Food Seasonings

    Our culinary herbs are grown on KoruKai Herb Farm, Banks Peninsula. They are enjoying dry and sun-kissed areas on the farm and are thriving. The aroma is strong, and a little goes a long way. Because they are harvested and dried with care, away from direct sunlight, they retain and concentrate their flavour. The green look proves that they are far superior to their grey counterparts in supermarkets.
