Her starter has a name, a feeding schedule stricter than a newborn’s, and a permanent spot on the warmest corner of the kitchen counter. While other people stress-scroll, she is folding dough, scoring ears on crusty golden boules, and dropping off warm loaves wrapped in tea towels to everyone she loves.
Designed by founder Mia Vellamere and precision-cut in our Salado, Texas workshop, The Wild Crumb immortalizes her bubbly glass mason jar—complete with a 0.4 mm gold-on-gold laser-etched “FEED ME” label and rising starter line—in sturdy 1.3 mm (16-gauge) jeweler’s bronze. Mounted on a custom-engraved blonde maple wood card, it is the one gift guaranteed to make your favorite baker laugh out loud and never take it off.
