What a pleasure it was meeting and learning from Sharon. She is patient, provides clear explanations, with enthusiasm and kindness, all in a supportive learning environment. Fun, and I look forward to becoming an expert!
If you’ve ever wanted to make bakery-quality sourdough at home, this is the class to take. The instructor is incredibly knowledgeable and has a wonderful sense of humor that makes learning fun and engaging. Every session is completely hands-on — you’re not just watching someone else bake, you’re mixing, kneading, and shaping your own dough under expert guidance.
What truly sets this class apart is the teacher’s genuine dedication to her students’ success. She’s available even after class — by text, phone, or email — to help troubleshoot any baking challenges or answer questions. That level of support is rare and so appreciated.
After taking this class, you’ll be baking beautiful, crusty, artisanal loaves fit for the most discerning palates. It’s an inspiring, confidence-building experience from start to finish — both educational and incredibly satisfying.
Highly recommend to anyone ready to fall in love with the art of sourdough!
Really enjoyed this class and learned a lot from this hands-on experience!
Thank you for leaving such a positive review of our Sourdough Basics class! We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed the hands-on experience and learned a lot. We're thrilled to have had you in class and look forward to seeing you again soon. Keep baking that delicious sourdough!
The class was fun, and the instructor truly went above and beyond - after the class, when I was having trouble with my dough, she told me to give her a call so we could talk things through and troubleshoot. What amazing care and patience!
Hi there! We're so glad you enjoyed our Sourdough Basics class and I am always happy to be of assistance. Just let me know if you have any questions along the journey. ~sharon
I took the sourdough class and have been hooked on making it since. Sharon, the instructor was pleasant to work with. She gave instructions, walked us through the process, answered questions, and continued to follow up with us even after the class. I HIGHLY recommend. I will be going back for more lessons.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the sourdough class and that Sharon was able to guide you through the process successfully. We are happy to be a part of your journey with sourdough and look forward to having you back for more lessons. Thank you for choosing Sourdough Basics and Happy Baking! ~the Team at Hobby Hill
Hobby Hill was easy to work with. Thanks for everything.
Thank you for the review Steven! So glad you received and feel free to share what you are making as we love all types of Cheeses.
Once again, Sharon did not disappoint. My friend and I attended this class and I learned a lot about canning. The fritters were delicious and baked not fried, which was great!
We had fun as a group and Sharon expertly handled the varying paces of the participants.
This is my second class and I will definitely be back.
Hi Jay! Thank you so much for your kind words and for attending our class. Loved meeting Crystal for her first visit. We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed the apple fritters and learned some new tips for canning. We hope to see you again soon for another fun and delicious class! 😊 ~sharon

I have always been intimidated about trying to make my own gluten free bread. There were so many flours and I worried that I would just end with a bland hockey puck. Then I found Culinary by Hobby Hill. I LOVE the way Sharon has figured out how to cover all facets of the gf sourdough making process in a single class - starting with trying the final product to get you excited about how delicious you own bread will be! I loved getting to practice each stage of the process even though it would normally happen over nearly a 24 hour period! I went away confident in next steps and made another loaf from start to finish a couple days later. Sharon has such a passion for what she does. It is infectious and I can't thank her enough for making herself available after the class for questions and encouragement as we sent pix of our first loaves! After twelve years of being gluten free I finally have fresh out of the oven, delicious bread. Thank you so much! I will definitely be back for your other gf classes!!
