The workshop in detail

4 to 9 participants

15 years min.

Alice opens the doors of her workshop to share her knowledge of artisanal sourdough baking with passion for three unique hours!

First, you will visit the workshop and meet Alice, artisan baker.

She will teach you the basics of the artisanal sourdough know-how that makes breads so tasty and full of nutritional benefits.

She will then share the baking techniques that contribute to the creation of an airy crumb, full of cells, and will give you tips on how to reproduce them easily at home. You will then put this knowledge into practice by making your own organic sourdough baguette with the acquisition of key gestures: kneading, blowing, rolling, etc.

You will then spend some time on the key gesture of shaping the baguette, which gives its characteristic shape to this delicious bread and guarantees a well-aired crumb. A nibble and we will put your baguettes in the oven.

Tea, coffee, homemade kefir and various sourdough breads will be served while the baguettes take on a golden colour!

Finally, you will leave with a jar of sourdough, some explanatory cards and recipes, your baguette dough to bake at home as you did together during the workshop and of course your delicious baked sourdough baguette if you haven't already devoured it!

Meet Alice

Baker

Alice worked in a large cosmetics company before discovering sourdough baking, first as a hobby and then as a passion that finally became a driving force for changing her career.

She therefore decided to train at the International Bakery School in the South of France, which specialises in artisanal sourdough methods. She launched her first workshops and the pandemic period then led to a real craze for her area of baking.

This was an opportunity for her to create a network and go to the United States to complete her training at the San Francisco Baking Institute. There, she broadened her knowledge and experience in the different leavens and types of bread (special breads and buns).

Back in Belgium in 2021, she passed her baker's exams and then relaunched her workshops with more advanced modules and that's when it all took off!

Always eager to share her hobby, her experience and give everyone the chance to introduce a bit of magic back into their daily life with decent, healthy products, she can't wait to welcome you to her workshop for a unique experience!

Merci Alice pour ce beau partage de tes très larges compétences. Ton parcours de vie m'a impressionné ! Cela me donne envie de suivre le stage sur le pain au levain.

Merci beaucoup pour cette chouette expérience. Quelle patience et quel merveilleux accueil :). En plus, on rentre à la maison avec une baguette toute fraîche et tout ce qu'il faut pour en faire deux autres. La famille adore et me demande d'en refaire. Atelier chaleureusement recommandé, vous ne serez pas déçus...

J'ai beaucoup apprécié l'atelier avec Alice ; à tel point que j'en ai déjà réservé 2 de plus. Ses explications étaient claires et nous avons pu comprendre et réaliser toutes les étapes de fabrication des baguettes. Chaleureusement recommandé.

Très bel atelier, bel accueil d'Alice, belle matinée partagée avec d'autres personnes tres sympa. On y apprend non seulement à faire de belles baguettes mais aussi les principes de base et les bienfaits du levain. Petite anecdote : il paraît qu'on donne un nom à son levain, le mien s'appelle donc Alice Crosby 😉

Magnifique formation, merci beaucoup Alice, ton atelier est magnifique et tu m’as tres bien expliqué ce beau savoir-faire. Je suis revenir avec une belle baguette et j’ai cuit mes autres deux baguettes ce matin. Elle sont délicieuses et croustillantes. Bravo! Je reviendrai pour apprendre d’autres techniques!
