Sourdough

A sourdough in Bali?

Indulge your taste buds in the authentic artisanal experience with our homemade Sourdough. Crafted with passion and dedication, each loaf is a testament to the timeless art of sourdough baking.

Our journey begins with quality ingredients – high-grade flour, pure water, and a live, wild yeast culture that’s been a secret family recipe for many years and that imparts that distinctive tangy flavor and airy texture. The slow fermentation process allows the dough to develop complex flavors, resulting in a loaf that is not just bread but a symphony of taste. One of the healthiest breads you can eat, sourdough’s prebiotic and probiotic benefits (from the starter) make it easier to digest.

The golden-brown crust crackles as you bite into it, revealing a soft, chewy interior with a delightful network of air pockets. The aroma alone will transport you to a traditional bakery, where time-honored techniques meet modern sensibilities.

More than just a bread, our Bali Sourdough is a versatile companion to your culinary adventures. Toast it for a satisfying crunch, slather it with butter for a simple pleasure, or use it as the foundation for gourmet sandwiches. You can also have it with our homemade jams and spreads, like our peanut butter, or just grilled on the side of our Red Pepper and Tomato Soup. Its robust flavor profile makes it the perfect canvas for both sweet and savory pairings.

At our shop, we take pride in every batch, ensuring that each loaf meets our high standards of quality and taste. No artificial additives or preservatives – just pure, wholesome ingredients that capture the essence of true sourdough tradition.

A word about our bakers!

In the heart of our bustling island, there exists a team of  very special individuals who have dedicated themselves to the art of baking and helped our bakery rise to where it stands now, since 1994. These talented bakers, from all around Indonesia, including Bali, have become an integral part of Bali Buda family, bringing smiles to countless faces with their breads, cakes and treats!

Each day, as the sun rises, these diligent local bakers gather in our bakery, ready to embark on their craft. With sleeves rolled up and flour-dusted hands, they pour their passion into every loaf of bread and every pie they make. For almost three decades, these Indonesian bakers have poured their hearts into all the beautiful products we serve and sell to you, everyday. From the crack of dawn to late into the night, their hands are kneading dough, so our bakeries can be supplied with fresh bread as soon as our doors open.

As we reflect on these past 3 decades, we are filled with gratitude for the spirit and unwavering dedication of our Indonesian bakers. Their tireless efforts have brought sweetness and delight to countless moments of our lives, from daily breakfast rituals to special occasions and milestones.
