If you love baking and are interested in food, this program can create many career paths for you. Bakers are up before dawn to knead dough - letting it rise before it can be baked fresh to sell that day. Sometimes evenings are required for dinner and dessert service as a pastry cook. If you enjoy working diverse hours, a job in these areas might be right for you.
Bakers prepare a wide variety of products employing many styles, ingredients and equipment. Business models range from small start-ups or niche bakeries to large commercial or wholesale bakeries producing products for retail operations.
Good physical condition is essential, as there is the potential for staying on your feet all day, along with lifting bags of flour in to bins.
