ABOUT
WHO I AM

all about crafting
fresh + healthy baked goods

Sarah, owner of Dough Sea Dough, holding a handful of her delicious, fresh, homemade baked goods; including pretzels, sandwich bread, and biscuits).

I am an everyday baker who loves creating fresh, healthy, and delicious treats for my family and friends. I started by elevating my meals using simple, high-quality ingredients. Now, I make baked goods that fit into busy, everyday life. My goal is to bring a little bit of homemade goodness to your table, making every meal a bit sweeter and healthier.

  • FOOD IS MY LOVE LANGUAGE!  It’s my way of nourishing those I love. Selfishly, it provides an opportunity for me to slow down into an almost meditative state and focus on a creative, hands-on activity that provides joy to those I love.

  • DSD would not exist without the utmost patience and generosity of Xavier Tondeur of Seaside Bagels, for allowing me to use his space and equipment on a commercial scale. What a learning curve! I’m thankful to the Musser family of Capt’n Bill’s and Bills Brewing for taking a chance on me and offering my products on their menu. Seeing my products being served to friends and having my logo on the menu was, quite literally, a dream come true.

    1 million thanks

  • My vision is to nourish my community with fresh, healthy, and homemade baked goods that bring joy and wellness to every home.

     

    My mission is to provide accessible recipes, practical tips, and guidance to empower home bakers to create nutritious treats and cultivate a love for baking.

HOW I BAKE

01

the idea

it all starts with an idea + inspiration.

02

the plan

the idea leads to recipe research + a general plan for ingredients + method.

03

the test

I put the plan to the test in my home kitchen, where my designated TasteTesters™ 
provide feedback.

04

the bake

once the recipe is dialed in, I move it to the commercial kitchen to prepare to scale for larger production.
