Naturally Fermented, Beautifully Baked

Small-batch sourdough — crafted for happy bellies

Featured Products

Our signature loaf – crusty on the outside, soft and tangy within.

The Everyday White Loaf

Rustic French-style sourdough with a bold, caramelised crust.

The French Style Bordelaise Loaf

Bold, cheesy, and just the right amount of heat. Made with mature cheddar and gochugaru chilli flakes, this slow-fermented sourdough has a golden crust, airy crumb, and a kick that keeps you coming back for more.

Fresh from Our Hands to Your Happy Belly

At Happy Belly Bakery, we believe good bread should make your belly — and your heart — feel joyful.

We’re a husband-and-wife team (plus a very nosy cat) baking slow-fermented sourdough the traditional way, right here in Devon. Each loaf is hand-shaped, lovingly crafted over four days, and baked until golden and crackling.

Zelah, our head baker and lifelong food-lover, and Michael, her tech-whiz, moral-support husband, pour heart and soul into every bake. We’re here to share simple, delicious, gut-friendly food — and a little bit of happiness — one loaf at a time.

Come join us around the table. There’s always a slice waiting.
