My name is Ella and I'm the owner of Sugar Grove Sourdough. I am 20 years old and have lived in Sugar Grove my whole life. I started baking sourdough in 2023 and started selling it in 2024. I started selling it out of my home until I grew enough to move into a commercial space.
I bake at a shared commercial kitchen in Geneva called the Geneva Green Market. Many certified businesses use this commercial kitchen to bake and cook for their small businesses!
All of my products are made with my homemade, organic sourdough starter. Breads made with a sourdough starter instead of a commercial yeast are much healthier for you. There are so many reasons why sourdough is better than other types of yeast such as: easier digestion, a lowered glycemic index, increased nutrient availability, and probiotic benefits. Aside from the benefits of the sourdough, my bread is also only made from the simplest ingredients, organic flour, water, and salt. No preservatives or fillers ever.
