The moment we have been waiting for many many years has finally arrived as we launch our brand new Homebakers by Grain Trip platform. We are mighty happy to have gone through with this project and we couldn’t start off any other way than by asking for your feedback.
As this is all very new to us and because we now deliver anywhere in Europe (yes, we can finally deliver outside Romanian borders), we encourage you to use the platform and online shop and send us your friendly feedback. To make it worth your while, we’ll offer a 10% discount on all orders for all orders placed during the first week (the discount applies to your shopping basket, excl. delivery costs). All you have to do is apply the “WELCOME” code on your shopping basket, when you check out from our online store and then send us your feedback, via email at feedback@graintrip.com. We are interested in how your experience has been from the first click on our shop up to the moment when your goodies have arrived and we are especially interested in abroad deliveries, so if you have ordered from outside Romania, please let us know if your delivery has gone well, if your goodies have arrived on time and in good shape. This will help us improve our services and get a better sense of how things are on your end
We have worked a lot to put this platform together, but we also know that some glitches are to be expected, so your feedback is paramount to how things will turn out.
But first, a few words about this new direction we embark on
The story behind ‘Homebakers by Grain Trip’ cannot start without first mentioning our “big brother”. With Grain Trip, we dreamed of taking everyone who visited our bakery on an exciting journey around the world, where they could discover the tastes and treats of new destinations on each visit. We were homebakers for a very long time until we could make Grain Trip Bakery a reality. We opened its doors in April 2018, bringing 100% sourdough breads and tasty pastries, filled with love and character, to our hometown of Bucharest in Romania.
The idea for ‘Homebakers by Grain Trip’ existed long before we opened our bakery. As self-taught homebakers ourselves, we envisioned a community resource with useful information and recipes, together with the finest ingredients and utensils, that could create the tastiest of loaves. We learned by travelling throughout Europe, discovering the best ingredients and stories about their farming and milling over generations, which developed our appreciation of prime grains and spectacular flours.
Along the way, Grain Trip Bakery became a second home for us as it did for many of you. We never forgot our first calling though and kept in touch with our fellow homebakers. It was during the Covid-19 lockdown, when we launched a simple challenge to teach everyone how to build a sourdough starter and make bread, that things really took off. The response was well beyond anything we could have imagined, and soon our homebaking community had grown to thousands of members in towns and cities around the world.
