From starter to crust
Every loaf goes through the same four steps over two days.
-
Feed the starter
Our starter, alive since 2017, is fed flour and water every morning.
-
Mix and fold
The dough rests and is folded by hand every half hour for four hours.
-
Rest overnight
Shaped loaves rest in the cold for up to 36 hours to build flavour.
-
Bake with steam
A hot stone deck and a burst of steam give the crust its crackle.
Inside the bakehouse
Flour on the benches, warmth from the oven and morning light on the counter.

Bread questions
What time is the bread ready?
The first bake is ready at 7:30 am and the second at 4 pm. Popular loaves often sell out by early afternoon, so reserve on WhatsApp if you are coming later.
Can I reserve bread in advance?
Yes. Message us on WhatsApp before 8 pm and we will hold your loaves for the next day at the branch you choose.
Do you deliver?
Yes, within Maadi, Degla and Zahraa El Maadi from 9 am to 8 pm, with free delivery on orders over EGP 500.
Is your bread vegan?
Yes — all our plain loaves are vegan: just flour, water, salt and starter. Croissants, buns and babkas contain butter, milk or eggs.
How should I store a sourdough loaf?
Keep it cut-side down on a board or in a cloth bag for up to three days. For longer, slice and freeze it, then toast straight from the freezer.
