The Grumpy Baker, founded by Michael Cthurmer in 2002 on Oxford Street, Darlinghurst, specializes in artisan sourdough bread with unique flavors. Initially, baking was done in a small kitchen, attracting a loyal customer base who loved the handmade, preservative-free bread. By 2005, the bakery outgrew its space, entered the wholesale market, and moved to a commercial factory in Leichhardt, achieving HACCP accreditation. In 2021, we shifted focus away from wholesale to expand our own locations. Our offerings now include fig and walnut sourdough, organic carrot loaf, soy linseed bread, and various pies and pastries. We sell these high-quality, handcrafted products at retail outlets across Sydney. Our name reflects the early mornings needed to bake our goods!
