Cornelius the Sourdough's 161st Birthday Bread Party!

Hip Hip Hurrah to the guy that only gets stronger with age! Happy 161st Birthday Cornelius! We will nerd out with various breadsperts

Cornelius the Sourdough turns 161 years old!

This is our 11th year in a row of celebrating together!

Have you heard of our dear old Cornelius? #corneliusthesourdough

Maybe you have even adopted him from one of our sourdough workshops or visited him in the worlds only Sourdough Library in Belgium?

This November will mark Cornelius’s 161st year of exsistence (legend has it, he could be even older than this) and we want to celebrate together with all his bread-loving friends and fans!

This party is for EVERYONE who loves the complexity of sourdough - whether you already have Cornelius, you have your own sourdough starter, you would like to dive into the sourdough baking world, or just want to eat a lot of good bread... you are invited!

The table will be full of spreads, dips, krauts, kimchi, and miso-butters for topping our bready creations and tantalizing our taste buds.

If you have Cornelius or other sourdough starters, pasta-madres, spongues or Hermans, bring a baked sourdough-something to share with the party! Bread, cake, cookies, waffles you name it! #potluckstyle

Don’t be intimidated, bringing your own loaf is a great way to talk with other bakers and improve your baking game!

We will tell the tale of Cornelius and his origin story and hear of his ongoing adventures, trials, failures and successes with other bakers.

We will have stations with workshops and talks with various sourdough breadsperts (bread experts) who share with us the value of baking with sourdough. Come to learn other tips and tricks, eat lots of tasty sourdough creations and more birthday surprises. ;)

As always, we have an adoption center set up for those who dont have Cornelius and would like to adopt him for free at the event. Bread baskets and other tools will be for sale.

Come join us for an edutaining (educational-entertaining) night of sourdough celebrations!

Spots limited - flavours limitless
