Bread Camp

Immerse yourself in the world of artisan baking with Rise Baking Lab's Bread Camp, an in-depth exploration of all things bread.

About Bread Camp

Our Bread Camp is appropriate to bakers of all levels, from beginners eager to learn the basics to professionals seeking to refine their skills and explore new techniques.

Over 5 days, you will work hands-on with a variety of doughs learning how to craft the perfect sourdough, focaccia, challah, brioche, and more. In addition to mastering the classics, you will have the chance to explore heirloom and ancient grains, such as spelt, einkorn, khorasan, marquis, red fife, and rye, including wheat freshly milled at our Lab.

Our program goes beyond the dough, touching on advanced topics such as porridge bread, soakers, scalds, and sprouting, to challenge and inspire even the most experienced bakers. Overall, the curriculum covers a range of styles and methods to ensure that students leave with a comprehensive understanding of, and appreciation for, diverse breads.

Enrolment is capped at 10 to ensure personalized attention and lots of hands-on practice.
