A little about us
Knead & Desire Bakehouse is a small batch bakery making handcrafted organic sourdough bread and pastries. We started on a farm in September 2021 and have been growing quickly, delivering direct to customers, wholesale to restaurants and hotels, weekend farmers markets and running sourdough courses. We also won six awards at the last World Bread Awards along the way.
Building a local organic supply base, a superb quality of product and an engaged and friendly service are fundamental to our success.
​
Our next step is to grow the product range and retail side of the business in our new shop and bakery in the centre of Hitchin.
