Five Star Gift Ideas

That's great! Here are a few meaningful and personal gift ideas for your mom who loves sourdough bread baking:

1. A sourdough bread-making kit: Consider putting together a kit that includes all the essentials for sourdough bread-making, including a sourdough starter, bread flour, a bread basket, a bread lame (for scoring dough), and a recipe booklet.

2. Sourdough bread baking cookbook: Gift her a cookbook that features sourdough bread recipes, bread-making techniques, and tips.

3. Bread-making class: Look for a virtual or in-person sourdough bread-making class that your mom can attend to sharpen her sourdough bread-making skills.

4. Bread-making tools: Consider gifting her high-quality bread-making tools such as a Dutch oven (for baking bread), digital kitchen scale (to measure ingredients accurately), and a thermometer.

5. Bread proofing basket: A bread proofing basket, also known as a banneton, adds a professional touch to homemade bread. Consider a sourdough-specific proofing basket in various shapes and sizes.

Using these ideas, you can show your mom how much you appreciate her interest in sourdough bread baking!

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

“I made a map for my mums birthday and she absolutely loved it. Definitely buying another one soon, probably for another family member or friend”
