Women-owned

Driven by over two decades of passion for home baking, Hankerie is more than a culinary studio, it is a legacy built on the belief that anyone can create professional-grade food in their own kitchen. Founded by a dedicated food blogger, award-winning baker, and author of The 9-to-5 Sourdough Blueprint on Amazon, we specialise in teaching sourdough, cookies, and cakes to those who balance a busy corporate career with a love for artisanal food.

Our journey is rooted in proven expertise. Hankerie has been recognized as the Most Innovative Artisan Baking Education Provider 2026 – Australia, winner of the LUXlife Sourdough Education Excellence Award 2026, a finalist in the Northern District Local Business Awards, and 1st Runner Up in the ASEAN Food Channel Cook-Off, alongside features on Malaysian TV (NTV7) for decorated Swiss rolls. At the heart of our bread-making classes is a heritage 16-year-old sourdough starter, nurtured daily for over a decade.

We understand that time is your most precious ingredient. Because our founder also navigates a corporate 9-to-5, our curriculum is engineered for "working bakers." We don't just teach recipes; we teach lifestyle integration, breaking down fermentation science and delicate decorating into stress-free steps that fit seamlessly into your work week.

Whether mastering a crusty loaf or refining your sweet bakes, our Sydney-based classes deliver core skills and confidence. Join us to discover how 20 years of blogging, competing, and teaching can be distilled into a single, joyful afternoon of learning.
