Ok - so we've gone from zero logos to 5! Thanks go to John Sutherland at Crofteleven who drew these up for us. Now to figure out how to use them on the blog...

doughies darkness
It's been a bit dark on the doughies blog of late. No blog posts. No twitter. No news. In fact we haven't even kneaded the dough in a fair few weeks (gasp). Darkness indeed. But its all about to change. This is blog post (1) and this blog post will be twittered (2); no news… Continue reading doughies darkness
[Cancelled] Event 17/03/12 – Pop-up-Pizzaria
UPDATE - ok so it is Saturday morning; Baker 1 and Baker 2 are to be honest super tired; the pizza boxes are in Wimborne, the ingredients are un-purchased; the dough needs preparing; and we have no orders. We think you're trying to tell us something - go sleep, buy a car, and bake a… Continue reading [Cancelled] Event 17/03/12 – Pop-up-Pizzaria
A little bit of time…
I think it is the Guinness advert which says "good things come to those who wait". And well they do. At least when it comes to bread. Added to the simple ingredients of bread (flour, water, yeast and salt) there is the more fickle variable of time. And when it comes to bread, real bread… Continue reading A little bit of time…
Event – Saturday Pizzas
On Saturday we were commissioned to bake 12 #realbread pizzas for a local ASDA skittle evening (thanks Chris) organised by the ASDA Bournemouth chaplaincy team. In the upheaval of moving homes, we weren't quite sure how doughies would cope, but we bucked up said "yes" and got stuck in. Big thanks go to the boys… Continue reading Event – Saturday Pizzas
Identity – Rise and Proof
John Sutherland, over at crofteleven (locally based in Roy Bridge...or soon to be local!) has been doodling up a logo for doughies (as per this post here). Below are a few initial ideas hot off the press. 2 are based on a fan slashed boule of bread, the other the infamous baker boy deli bike. We… Continue reading Identity – Rise and Proof
Doughies on the Move
"Crate, pack, clean". Our task the last few days. With a bit of "de-clutter, recycle and dispose" thrown in. Along with some fun packing of a 3.5tonne panel van (like playing tetras). Doughies is officially on the move, from sunny Bournemouth, Dorset, England, to wet but beautiful Fort William, Highland, Scotland. We've now moved all our… Continue reading Doughies on the Move
Saturday Night Pizzas
It's all a bit busy at the suburban flat home of doughies. Changes are afoot; there is packing and boxes involved (but more of that later). And in the busy-ness of logistics there is alas not a lot of #realbread baking going on [in fact we've been packing the baking equipment!]. But's it's Saturday night… Continue reading Saturday Night Pizzas
Tartine Testing
So have been meaning to type some words on a lovely book I recently acquired called Tartine bread; penned by a baker called Chad Robertson and pal (who both surf so they must be good). It's the story of a search for the perfect sourdough in a little corner of California. It's both about efficiency… Continue reading Tartine Testing
The Doughies Brand
Doughies took its first step today to getting a brand. Why? Cos today we commissioned John Sutherland, from crofteleven to work up a logo for the launch of Doughies [Fort William]. Exciting stuff. Got me thinking about brands - and how ultimately it's a mark or signature that you associate with a person, company or business.… Continue reading The Doughies Brand
