One of Sydney's best bakers, Iggy's, is starting a new chapter. Closing their beloved Macpherson Street shop in Bronte, Iggy's founders Igor and Ludmilla Ivanovic have opened a brand new headquarters for their lauded sourdough loaves — just up the road at number 131.

Usually selling out of their naturally leavened, hearth-baked breads by around 11am, Iggy's Bread is no stranger to queues down the street — queues that, regardless of the new venue's bigger capacity, probably aren't going to get any shorter. The Ivanovics simply have more room to experiment with new baking techniques — although they'll still be specialising in country sourdough, whole wheat sourdough, francese and seedless white rye.

Of course, Iggy's Belgrave Street venue still stands. But the new Macpherson Street space allows Iggy's to be more environmentally-friendly. According to Good Food, Iggy's now has an energy-recovery system that uses the heat generated by the bakery for things like hot water and shop's heating system.

Find Iggy's Bread at 131 Macpherson St, Bronte or 49 Belgrave Street, Bronte.
