I moved to a rural community - no shops, definitely no bakeries so had to learn to bake and sourdough was the obvious choice. I started with baking bread and once I'd nailed that and found a market, I started on croissants, gradually building up to 100% sourdough (i.e. no yeast). They remain a challenge..

특징

Marion produces a loaf with a lightly sour flavour and perfect crust but she stars in croissants. Croissants baked with Marion (no yeast) are moist, have perfect layers and exceptional flavour. Marion was shared around our community when COVID struck and the locals learned to bake beautiful bread with her. She is a legend!
