The Leavened Box Difference

At The Leavened Box, our sourdough is crafted with all-natural organic ingredients and a cherished 200-year-old starter lovingly named Lilith. This ancient starter infuses each loaf with a rich history and a unique, mild flavor. From meticulously sourcing the finest flavor inclusions to hand-mixing each batch of dough, I am dedicated to experimenting with new flavors and variations, ensuring every loaf is a delightful surprise. I invite you to experience the simple joy of tasting a hand-crafted sourdough loaf from The Leavened Box and to share in my passion for sourdough.
