  • Top tier baking pod!

    A good mix of banter and interesting info. They keep it fun!

    Only note: can't stand how the guy host says gluten "gluden" literally had to stop listening to the gluten free ep because of this.

  • Fun & Light

    I enjoy listening to the hosts light banter. I would like to hear more baking do’s and don’ts. I thought I’d learn more about why my chocolate chip cookies always come out different, items used for baking pizza and terminology explained, and more about the origins of sourdough. I’m looking for cute stories but more importantly easy ways to improve my baking. I’d also love an episode about dairy free recipes!

  • Fantastic podcast!

    I love this podcast not only for the wealth of information on general baking techniques, but also because the topics get into dietary restrictions (gluten free, lactose free, vegan) that a lot of listeners (myself included!) have a hard time finding reliable information on. Leave it to King Arthur Flour to finally be the one to do the baking podcast I’ve been hoping for!
