At the moment, no baker in the whole country would agree that the craft has a golden foundation. Inflation, staff shortages, exorbitantly increased energy and raw material prices - they have not been spared from any of these crises. The existential concern is omnipresent in the bakeries, as is the fear of more bad news. "It makes you sleep restlessly," says spelled baker Stefan Dümig, who has branches in Haar, Vaterstetten and Ottobrunn. "We're just at the beginning, if it...
Soaring energy prices are hurting all businesses, especially small businesses. The crisis is also claiming its first victims. In Groix in Morbihan, one of the only two bakeries on the island, is thus forced to lower the curtain, reports France Blue Breizh Izel. Opened in 2017, La Petite Boulangerie will close its doors on December 31 and its three employees will be made redundant. The managers of the business justify this brutal decision by multiplying by five their electricity bill...
Status: 09/18/2022 12:30 p.m Bakeries struggle with rising energy and raw material prices. In order to still be able to offer their bread comparatively cheaply, some of them get creative and offer "inflation bread". In the display of Mario Fritzen's bakery, his "inflation bread" stands out. "Not everything has to be more expensive," the baker wrote on the price tag. The "inflation bread" costs 2.50 euros for 750 grams in his shop in Kürten, east of Cologne - significantly less...

One of the most effective and feared military tactics is the so-called pincer movement. Here the attacker attacks an enemy position from two sides at the same time, thus forcing him to divide his forces and attention on two fronts. Due to inflation, caused among other things by the war in Ukraine and the ongoing pandemic, the bakeries in the Ebersberg district are facing something very similar: a double increase in the price of food and energy, both of which...
Why should the doggies not also have the right to eat healthy and organic? This idea crossed the mind of Piers Garnham, a Briton living in the Gers, several years ago. A former miller, passionate about bakery, he decided to start designing organic dog treats two years ago. But not with just any product.

Workers put a nearly two-meter-high bottomless barrel over a burning fire bowl. The expert calls this procedure "toasting". "The solid wood structure of the inside of the barrel is broken up by the open flame, and undesirable aromatic substances or resinous substances are broken down," explains Aßmann. Cellulose is split into...

In recent months, in France, the departments where it is now possible for businesses to sell bread every day of the week are more and more numerous. After the Hauts-de-Seine in April or the Côtes-d'Armor a month ago, it is the prefecture of the Sarthe which has just ended a legal battle lasting several years by authorizing the opening of bakeries seven days a...
