The part about enabling everyone to bake good bread is so wholesome and I think it's amazing! I wholeheartedly hope all your dreams come true ❤ you've worked so hard! Makes me want to start learning how to bake properly, too hahah 🤧
Omg! I just came across your videos and see that you are in Watlington, Oxfordshire. My husband and I (from Canada)will be in Oxford in July and it would be AMAZING to stop by your bakery one day. Hope we can find your exact location and hours…I will happily stand in a queue for your baked goods. I have been baking my own bread for about 15 years now, mostly sourdough. My starter is named Fernando. You have the most contagious smile and passion that will inspire so many young people to try their own hand at baking….absolutely brilliant! Yours is the first RU-vid video on baking bread that exudes such joy….100% authentic.
Go you! I’m 33 and have been baking for a long time and sell online. You should if you don’t! Proud of you . Inspirational for my 8 year old daughter who is starting to bake with me❤
It's inspiring to see a young person pursuing your dream, innovating, being an entrepreneur, and sharing your experience with the world. As an introvert, I'm totally with you about the joy of working in solitude. And as an Eagle Scout, I'm so happy that you kept the scout memorabilia in your hut. I would love to patronize your bakery next time I'm in the UK. I hope your business thrives. Best of luck from America.
Wow I'm 29 but you are just so inspiring. Your dream at the end just shows how kind of a person you are deep down. I love how you're smiling ear to ear in every video talking about what you're baking as well. I hope to do something similar to you one day
Hi Kitty, I love your energy and your creations, suffice to say that you are a source of inspiration, and not just for baking! During my training, all the professionals discouraged me from launching into this profession (and my state of health does not allow me to keep up the pace), I will graduate next June, and if I do not work as a baker, I will use this experience to create a food truck, with board games to offer to customers, local products. Thank you for all these incredible videos, you make us smile and want to roll up our sleeves, in addition to eating bread!
I think you are amazing, girl! The way you started, the way you dedicated all yourself to your passion and went to work for free to learn the secrets of your job. I am old enough to be your father, so let me tell you that you are a true blessing to any soul that is lucky enough to be touched by your grace. Your smile is infectious, promise never to lose it. Go on your way Kitty, I wish you all the best for your future from the bottom of my heart.
Agreed. Everyone “kneads” to learn the joy of baking! I only got the dough “hook” in me a few years ago. Now I grind my own flour, and wood fire my own pizza. I’ll be baking til my final rise, so much more to learn! Thank you for sharing your story with everyone. Getting a good bake and breaking bread with loved ones? Yes and Yes! Cheers to your continued success!
Dear kitty, I read about you at my library’s book club. Everyone baked a piece of bread and I wondered if I could do it too. I was 16 and had been struggling with depression so badly I couldn’t even wear long sleeves anymore. I started baking and something inside me changed so quickly . Nothing had made me feel like baking had! I am now 18 and in the first stages of my bread delivery service and I wouldn’t have it any other way… o dropped out of school at 15 but I will be graduating soon.
You're so inspiring! I'm a baker in a small town and there's not a lot of opportunities to "flourish" (get it? Hah) inbetween big corporates... But you inspired me! 19 only.. and baking all day, everyday! That's such an amazing job! I can't even think of it as a job, because you just do what you want and love the most.. baking! And I want exactly that! Thank you for posting these lovely clips, it shows that anyone who wants do to it, can do it too. So I'll do it too, I'll find a way!
Ive said this before and will say it again as my comments have disappeared lol, Kitty deserves the best and the money could not have gone to anyone sweeter she's become one of my absolute favourite people and youtubers i just adore this human ❤ I've been following this wonderful human a little over a month now and I find watching her bake so fascinating and learning about it so interesting she really is a legend in every sense of the word.
Cricky very interesting listening to your story, I can relate I too am a visual learner and I love been a lone. I have 45yrs as a baker/pastry cook. I no long have the capacity to a big baker,but I still love it. Keep the dream alive sister, 🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🏅🏅🏅Aussie Aussie Aussie GDAY MATE from brisbane Australia
Absolutely spot on. My daughter has a very rare condition and over the last few months we’ve spent our weekends cooking our evening meals. I started this with her to try and teach her more life skills. We love cooking together and she’s really enthusiastic about it. Watching your videos has given me a real desire to bake bread with her, which will be my first time as well as hers. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, wow, wow! I've just found you! I've just started researching on how bake bread. Of course, your energy, personality and passion are so very, very inspiring Kitty. I am very moved by your project to bring bread-making to the masses. Through school is utterly brilliant. Right there is your expansion if that's what you want. All the best to you!!
New subsciber here. I am rooting for you with all my heart. I am 34 years old, from a different country and making videos on youtube myself. Your passion about this is such an inspiration for me. Keep going. 🙂
You are such an inspiration. To see a young woman following her dreams and with such a brigh disposition is refreshing. Keep working towards your goals and being a bubbly person❤
I've only just come across your YT page and think it is wonderful to see so much enthusiasm to bread making . I started making yeasted bread at the begging of this year as I had to give up playing guitar. but my sour dough bread is a disaster. my starter is really active but the bead is rubbish.
So great to hear you turned a negative time in your life into such a positive future for yourself, such an inspiration! 👏 Love your videos, they are so relaxing!
Hi Kitty! Thank you for sharing such a wonderful video!🧡All great questions and so well & truly answered with such honesty.🙏🏻You bring us not only your knowledge but your amazing energy too! Look forward to more Q & A’s. Well done! x 🫶🏻
Hiya Kitty! I first found you and your baking content on tiktok and honestly you are incredible, I am amazed at how mature and talented you are for 19! You are a bundle of joy and so excited to see what you create in the future! x
Your parents must be so proud of you. My kids are still very little but I would burst with pride if they conducted themselves like you. You're very wise, kind and a pleasure to watch. All the very best to you!
Thanks so much! I enjoy watching you bake. It reminds me of when I was your age at my first job working in a bakery. I love baking bread and I agree with you that everyone should learn how to make bread. It's great therapy! I would rather make yeast breaks than quick breads any day! I have done sourdough but I honestly don't get the current interest. I know how hard you work and you are a breath of fresh air to see such a lovely young woman doing what she does and sharing your passion with others! Please be good to your back. I strained mine lifting bags of flour.
Bless you, Kitty. 😍 What you're doing is absolutely brilliant, especially that you're starting to pay your good fortune, resourcefulness, hard work and success to others. I love it. Well done. You're also proof that going to university at 18/19 isn't necessary. I agree that proper bread is magical and nutritious. Making it is even better! Delia Smith once called commercial bread "that which is not bread". She was right, it's mostly horrible, and the queues outside your shop are testament to real baking, done with love and skill. Well done, and keep going! You're an utter ray of sunshine. 🥰
I'm so grateful that I found your channel! I've been in food industry for 9 years this year and I've just started baking again only since last year whereas previously I was so traumatic of the baking failures in the past😅 .. I can totally resonate your passion of wanting to inspire a lot of people to bake their own bread🌟 I hope your dream will come true and thank you for being such an inspiration! I look forward for your videos!❤ Subscribed🎉
Listening to your story brought tears to my eyes for some reason. You are such a beautiful person, and I think this channel is going to be a real positive impact on the lives of a lot of young people!
I’m enjoying your videos and shorts. You have such a beautiful personality young lady. I’m from Decatur Alabama in the USA 🇺🇸. Subscribed today. You have a great skill at baking
I love your story, you are very brave. I'm 29 and just starting over baking at my home, trying to get sales. Im not making any money but i hope one day I'll be able to sustain myself with my baking. I feel like I'm starting late in life, but youre a huge inspo so thank you for sharing everything you do ❤
You are truly an inspiration for so many young people who live with anxiety and struggle everyday with what is expected of them. I have recently become a home sourdough baker and every loaf makes me happy, I like to listen to an Australian band called Pacific Avenue when I bake, their music cheers me up and helps me get my groove on 😊
Wow, I’m so impressed with how much you’ve achieved and how you’ve done so much to help yourself deal with MH issues to not only reach for your dreams but also to help others! I’ve shared your channel with my eldest daughter (she’s a couple of years younger than you). You’re a great role model for the younger generation (/old codgeriness).
You have to be the entire worlds most honest, cute, loveable and amazing baker ❤ One of my top 3 wishes for this life is that YOU will acomplish absolutely every thing you ask for and have a huge and major success in all that you do! I LOVE what you do and how you do it ❤❤❤
Hi Kitty, I love your work and attitude, it’s so inspiring to everyone not just the younger generation, I have been making sourdough for over 20yrs and other sourdough recipes, it’s so amazing that two ingredients, flour and water can create something so spectacular, oh don’t forget the salt! I’ve just made 9 sourdough loaves for people and I was up at 4am using my little oven 😂keep inspiring people Kitty you are amazing ❤
you are brilliant, you soul is warming and I love it all! Cheers to you. I wish I had half your drive. I am at the stage of a few successes. Just think, you will in the future be the one mentoring.
I've only just found your channel and you’re quickly becoming my third favourite blued eyed, auburn haired person. Sorry my granddaughter must come first and my (65yo) sister would batter me if she didn’t come second. Your parents must be incredibly proud of you 1) for how well you’re doing and 2) how open you are about your mental health.
I lived in didcot for nine years and moved three years ago, I wish you’d been there then because I had to drive through what Ingrown five times a week! I’m chuffed that the old hut is being used and for such a good purpose. Well done you ! Peculiarlyhookedonpendle
You are such a humble woman.. a lot of people could learn from you. I am starting my bread making journey now because I accidentally found your short on RU-vid. I’m 65 so ur never to old or …… young.. ❤
Hi Kitty, you are such an inspiration! Thanks for sharing your story, that's really brave! I love your baking videos and I love your book! Your recipes are very delicious. I made my own take on the new pink buns and it was a succes. As a mum with 2 struggling kids your story really made an impact on me. I hope more people share their stories in this difficult society and help one another out. And I hope to see more baking books because I think thats a way for you to stay small but earn a business in the future. Lots of love ❤
Kitty, just came across your channel and so glad I did. You are an insperation and hope your dreams come true. I am looking forward to trying your starter with an apple as not done this before. Keep up the great work. 👍👍
all Danish bakers have heavy metal blasting from the speakers wen we bake !!!! make a go fund me and get a roling table, it will help you a lot and make your day more easy, i realy like what you do, greatings from a old baker in denmark
Ihr Lächeln und ihre Begeisterung zu ihrer Arbeit ist bezaubernt und es steckt an, mit zu lächeln. Es ist faszinierend, wie sie es schafft, diesem schweren Beruf zu schaffen. Es ist ein "Wundermädchen ". Beeindruckend, mach weiter so, es passt zu dir.
This is so inspiring and cool! I never realised anyone could actually manage to do things they enjoyed as work or that it was fine to just completely go on your own path! You seem like such a fun and nice person and I wish you well as you continue baking!
Kitty, you are such a inspiration. I am in awe just watching you getting all this work done by yourself. What is the healthiest bread to make at home? I m 77 years old and like to have a simple recipe for a bread with no sourdough, but maybe healthy seeds in it. Maybe at your next Q & A session? Love your videos, new subscriber. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
Wow. You're such a wonderful and lovely person. Whenever your are baking, i can literally feel how much you love what you are doing. It's always like a seeing a second sunrise when you are baking. 😊 Promise to never ever let go of that passion, even during hard times ?! Because this is the most important ingredient that makes everything you bake taste good --> the love for what you are doing 😋 Greetings from a Hobby Baker with an affection for sourdough bread 😁
hi! I just embarked on my sourdough journey and came across your account (which I LOVE) when you talked about your dream I got goosebumps! You are so inspiring ... wishing you best of luck!
Oh, I just discovered you yesterday, and I just see a young lady who God has blessed with a great talent and a super sweet personality and I pray that He continues to bless you and all your dreams do come true! Your baked goods look SOOOO good! 🥐😋
Yes, self taught but you actually completed on the job training, which, in the good old days, was called an apprenticeship. However you did it, your energy and creativity is wonderful, well done independent Baker.
That would be my dream. I love baking and I live in a small village that has no bakery. Every now and then I dream of opening up my own little one (I am working in Tech normally). But then I remember that I live in Germany and here we have something called „Meisterzwang“. That basically means that you can only run your own Balery (applies to a lot of other businesses too), if you ran through a ~6 year long training (first job training, then mastership). That is some leftover from the middle ages I guess and everything I think about it, it makes me very sad :(
You are a young & beautiful girl with passion to do things that you love. I came across a few of your videos/shorts and they look amazing. I wish you the best and keep these videos coming....
Hey Kitty, I love your youtube vidoes and thank you for this Q&A! In terms of questions I wonder, after having read Breadsong (and loving it!), if your still working together with your dad in the bakery and how your coworking reltionship developed over time? I find your work so inspiring, thank you for being here, lots of love Luke
Such a good question, I’m actually posting a vid on it tomorrow! Dad is back teaching and I run the bakery solo, but he’s still my best friend and I’ll always be so grateful for his help setting up the bakery 💗
Love your Instagram posts. You have the most beautiful energy. The food business is very demanding, but can be so rewarding. (I worked for 40 years: line cook/catering chef/catering manager). I'll send you some music suggestions by DM (also, radio DJ for 33 years...weekly show). So happy to hear your story and how transformative it's been for you. All the best!
Greetings, i am passionate about pastries as i was scrolling my account, i came across one of your videos and liked immediately the way u jolly and how you shared your experience you inspired me i want to become the world best baker ever ❤
I really enjoy watching your videos, you are so happy and clearly LOVE being a baker Just wished i didnt live hundreds of miles away in Scotland! Keep doing what you love and enjoy and follow your dreams ❤ Maybe in the future you might be able to have online orders 🤞
Hello Kitty. If you would like to include another Scottish band in your morning routine, may I recommend Big Country. You could try songs from their early years such as "Restless Natives" or "In a Big Country". These songs might give the urge to close shop and head for the hills but judging by your sparkling enthusiasm, I suppose you would be safe.
