Bacillus Bulgaricus Sourdough Starter makes an amazing sourdough bread of exceptional quality with great sourdough flavor, texture and taste.
You should get this sourdough starter if you are looking for starter, which is super easy to activate, ferments quickly and is no trouble to maintain. Our starter helps your sourdough rise fast and is always consistent and very reliable.
You should get this sourdough starter if you would like your sourdough starter to have colonies and colonies of beneficial probiotic lactic acid cultures and wild yeasts. Our starter contains strains isolated from natural sources in ecologically preserved areas in Bulgaria (including the famous Lactobacillus Bulgaricus), which your own locally grown sourdough starter won't naturally have, simply because those strains don't freely grow where you are (unless of course you are in Bulgaria). So by using our starter alone, or adding it to yours, it will enrich the healthy gut microbe fauna and contribute to the health benefits and the nutrition of your own starter. It will help your sourdough activate and ferment quickly and must importantly provide you with a boost of gut-friendly bacteria.
You should get this sourdough starter if you need a starter that gives you a reliable fast, strong and steady rise during proofing and produces an excellent oven spring, yielding a superb sourdough bread with lots of air pockets, great open crumb, nice crust, just the perfect texture, and heavenly taste.
The starter activates very quickly – because of the live active cultures and yeasts in it, it is ready to bake in as little as 1-2 hours after you feed it for the first time. You can of course feed it and let it ferment for as long as you need (to develop more strength and flavor) before using it, as you would do with your regular sourdough starter.
Once activated you can keep your sourdough starter going for as long as you'd like. You can also pause maintaining it at any time by storing the active sourdough starter in the fridge. See below for activating, feeding, and keep going instructions.
The starter is very sturdy and forgiving which makes it a great no-fuss, reliable and stable go-to sourdough starter for everyday use that is easy to keep going for as long as you need it.
Make sure you always keep some packs in the fridge and use them when you feel the spontaneous need to bake.
The starter is organic and fully natural with no preservatives, additives, artificial colors or flavors. It contains no GMO ingredients and it is gluten free.
It is universal, which means if can be used with any flour – AP, bread, whole, rye, spelt, even specialty flours. So there is no limit of the type of sourdough bread you can make with it.
Produced and packed in Bulgaria.

This is an authentic Viili heirloom starter. Each pack contains loose powder mix, in perfect proportions, of the strains required to make the perfect Viili.
Viili is a mesophilic fermented milk product coming from Finland, which resembles yogurt. Viili is the result of the action of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts, which work together to form a velvet-like surface and a rich smooth consistency of the Viili. The name comes from a byproduct from the actions of the strains, a phosphate-containing heteropolysaccharide, called viilian. Viilian is similar to kefiran produced by kefir strains. Viili has been a cornerstone of the Finnish diet for and is a super-food with multiple health benefits. It has, in recent years, gained a world popularity much similar to Bulgarian yogurt.
Viili comes in three forms — short, long and the original. The short version has a consistency similar to commercial yogurt with a mild taste. The long version has a ropy, or stringy, consistency that stretches much like honey. Traditional viili is the one that contains surface-growing yeasts. Our Viili is the traditional type.
Our Viili starter makes genuine Scandinavian Viili of exceptional quality with classic Viili taste, thickness and aroma. Classic Viili has a mild, nutty, cheese-like taste and a thick stretchy viscous consistency -- the perfect balance between slimy and creamy -- a distinguishing characteristic of the traditional Viili.
This is a heirloom Viili starter with live active bacteria, which means that you can reuse Viili from your previous batch to culture your new batch, for as long as you wish.
The starter contains lactic acid cultures isolated from natural sources in ecologically preserved areas in Finland and Bulgaria.
