Crust & Crumb Academy Reviews

This is a very friendly, growing, supportive community of bakers who love to learn to bake great bread in all it's forms. We are all in the academy to learn and and support each other while we share our success and our failures as well.

There are so many things about this academy that make it successful. First is Henry Hunter who's dream is to share his knowledge of baking bread with those enthusiastic about learning through success as well as...well sometimes learning through failure. The academy offers so many educational opportunities through its videos and classes that are open to all who want to participate and...they are all free. They are not only full of information but also include how-to videos and many practical tips to make our bakes successful. Each week there is an opportunity to bake together. Henry provides a recipe for those who bake with commercial yeast as well as for those who bake with sourdough starter. The community logs on and we all bake together, sharing pictures and comments that encourage and support each other....even our failed bakes. All weeks have teaching incentives towards the next week's bake so that we all can progress in our learning while Henry monitors and is available to answer any questions. In addition, there is a large recipe pantry available that walks anyone through each step of the baking process for each recipe, including "Krusty". Click on the icon and you can literally ask any question throughout the process and get your question answered in real time. What could be better? There are both experienced as well as new bread bakers in the group and many have become friends along the way. If you are interested in learning how, or just love baking bread, this is the absolute best group to join. I know that I am a much better bread baker because of this group.

Everybody has something new to learn! This site offers recipes along with helpful information to level up every baker’s skills. Supportive community to look to for affirmation, help or guidance.
