THE CRUMB EDIT

I Tried "London’s Best Sourdough". Here’s How It Went.

In Partnership with Butter & Crust

Bread, pastries, eggs, wine, and a potted plant on a table with natural light.

Imagine waking up this weekend, rain hammering against the window, and knowing there's a bundle of freshly baked artisan delights waiting for breakfast.


That’s exactly what Butter & Crust delivered me last weekend – and it was pure magic.


Normally I’m racing around trying to get the kids up and ready before I ferry them off to football and swimming. 

But with Butter & Crust arriving again next weekend, I’ve got a feeling they’ll be waiting at the breakfast table.

Here’s why…

Signature Sourdough

Let’s just say there’s a reason Condé Nast Traveller calls this ‘the best sourdough in London right now’. It combines a beautifully soft centre with the perfect crackly crust.

Apparently that’s thanks to a special process called ‘high-hydration fermentation’. I can’t say I understand it - I just know the result is tangy and delicious! Even better, our Large Signature Sourdough Loaf lasted us into the week.

Perfect Pastries

Warning! These are so good they may cause a family argument. Like their loaves, Butter & Crust Pastries are always baked fresh and made to order to cut down on food waste. Plus, they vary which pastries they feature week-to-week, supporting local bakeries and keeping your tastebuds guessing.

Artisan Accompaniments

Alongside their amazing loaves and pastries, Butter & Crust have also curated a range of artisan accompaniments. Like Husk & Honey - named 'Best Granola in the UK' by Michelin chef Michel Roux Jr and winner of four Great Taste awards.

Or Monmouth Coffee Company, who sustainably source the finest coffees from South America and Africa. Butter & Crust even have their own range of Organic Preserves, perfect for those who (like me) have a serious sweet tooth.

Breakfast, Your Way

This is my personal favourite. Their Bagels all have that unmistakable sourdough texture and tang, the perfect base for Isle of Bute Smoked Salmon to balance the sweet with the savoury.

If you’re like my husband and only eat your smoked salmon with scrambled eggs, Butter & Crust also deliver ultra-fresh Farm Eggs within 72 hours of laying.

Delicious Dairy

Whether it’s their Whole Milk, Cultured Butter, or Greek Style Yoghurt, there really is no comparison to The Estate Dairy. As a girl who grew up on a farm, nothing comes close to their deliciously creamy dairy. So when I saw Butter & Crust deliver it in their breakfast bundles I was over the moon.
