Founder of Home Cooking Is Better
Hi, I’m Andrea — a wife, mom, bread baker, and the heart behind Home Cooking Is Better. What started as a simple love for baking turned into a mission: helping more families enjoy fresh, nourishing sourdough bread around their tables.
I believe there’s something special about homemade bread. Not just the flavor or the texture (though that’s amazing too), but the feeling it brings and the nourishment it provides.
I’m currently completing my culinary training in Baking and Pastry, equipping myself with the knowledge and skills to bring even more quality and care to the breads and I share with you
At Home Cooking Is Better, we bake with intention. Every loaf is made with fresh milled grains, natural fermentation, and no shortcuts. We care deeply about using real ingredients and traditional methods, because the food we feed our families should be both delicious and nourishing.
Good bread is worth it! And I’m glad to connect with people like you who care about what goes on their plates.
Here’s to a slice!

Things To Know Before Your Order Sourdough:
- Sourdough bread is….sour. The longer the bread is fermented the more sour the bread will taste.
- Our preservative-free bread does not have preservatives for a long shelf life. Therefore, if your bread is not eaten within 2-3 days it is best to place your bread in the freezer for up to 3-6 months. You can easily remove the amount of slices of bread you want to eat and reheat them in the oven.
2. Our Commitment To Quality
We are committed to providing freshly baked sourdough bread using organic wheat-berries freshly milled. We stand by our product as a “better for you option” for our customers. We bake with long fermentation, no shortcuts, no fillers, just good simple ingredients! We love providing bread that nourishes, not just satisfy hunger.
