Meet Baby Dough, the bubbly, soulful heart behind every single loaf at Mad Good Bakes! Born in February 2025, our house masa madre is strong, deeply active, and meticulously sustained on a 10% organic rye flour diet. This custom care is what fuels our ovens with unmatched artisan flavor and an incredible, airy rise. At Mad Good Bakes, we never take shortcuts. Every bread starts directly with the classic Tartine Basic Country Bread recipe. Before we add a single macro-boosting seed, fiber, or clean protein, we make sure Baby Dough has worked her magic—ensuring the base dough is structurally strong and perfectly fermented overnight. This slow fermentation naturally breaks down starches, helping us deliver a low-glycemic, gut-friendly sourdough that satisfies your bread cravings without spiking your blood sugar.
