About us

Hi and welcome to Lykken Sourdough!

I’m a 25-year-old woman from Norway with a big passion for sourdough baking.

My interest started after watching a video on TikTok and thinking:
“This actually looks pretty easy.”

But it quickly turned out to be much harder than I expected.

I started by creating my own sourdough starter, and it took me several months before I baked a loaf that was actually edible. The results were unpredictable, and I never fully understood what I was doing wrong.

Everything changed when I started tracking what I was actually doing: recipes, temperature, timing, techniques, and more.

Suddenly, it became much easier to see what worked and what didn’t.

In a short amount of time, I went from baking “just okay” bread to airy, consistent, and beautiful sourdough loaves.

That’s when I realized:

→ The problem isn’t the recipe, it’s that we lack a system.

That’s why I created the Sourdough Journal.

A simple tool designed to help you connect the dots in your baking, so you can learn faster and achieve better results without starting over every single time.

I’ve also created and simplified different guides to make it easier for you to understand the process and succeed with sourdough baking at home, without having to Google endless advice and feel overwhelmed.

My goal is to make sourdough baking easier and less frustrating for people at home.

Because anyone can do it with the right tools and a little patience.
