Save time & hassle of growing your own starter from scratch with our organic sourdough starter flakes which can be revived with flour & water at home.
Grown and maintained using only organic whole rye Australian flour from Wholegrain Milling Company.
Why we use whole rye flour?Because it provides more nutrients for your starter & ferments more actively than white bread flours alone. Rye flour is also lower in gluten so makes mixing easier. If you don't have rye flour, we recommend doing a 50/50 white bread flour & whole-wheat flour mix to feed your starter.
If you would like to purchase a whole rye flour to feed & maintain your starter if you wish to use the same flour as the original starter.
Please do not use supermarket plain/cake flour to fed your starter as it does not contain enough food to feed the good bacteria that makes your starter strong.
Just mix the whole sachet of sourdough starter flakes with flour & water & it will be activated & ready to use within 24-42 hours.
Once activated your starter will stay alive for as long as you feed & look after it.
NEW: Now available in twin packs for when you need a back up starter or an extra for a mate!
Mixing Jar not included.
INGREDIENTS:
Made with 100% Australian organic whole rye flour from Wholegrain Milling Company.

Like most novices, I messed up my sourdough starter after 3 years of baking. And so I ordered the Sourdough Starter Flakes from Sourdough Mate. They arrived and within 2 days I had fresh bubbly starter. This product is exceptional - it's a winner. Can't recommend it enough!
They didn’t work

I couldn't get a new starter going and once I received my starter flakes and kicked off the process, this starter is growing beautifully.
I bought the dried sourdough starter and after following the instructions, my starter was ready to bake with only 1 1/5 days later! I bought the dried sourdough starter as I had been trying to make sourdough starter again for a long time but something kept going wrong, so this allowed me to continue baking my sourdough bread!
