A loaf of bread

A baker is someone who primarily bakes and sells bread. Cakes and similar foods may also be produced as the traditional boundaries between what is produced by a baker as opposed to a pastry chef have blurred in recent decades. The place where a baker works is called a bakehouse, bakeshop, or bakery.

By examining the listed contents of modern breads produced and distributed by major bakeries in the U.S. one almost invariably sees a substantial content of corn syrup (usually high-fructose kind) or honey. In olden times (colonial through about 1950) breads were less sweet and waistlines a bit tidier.

Modern bakers

Today bakers work in varying environments both as employees and sometimes owning their own stores. Bakers can be found working in:

  • Large factories. These produce bread and related products which are then transported to numerous selling points throughout a region. These normally include supermarkets, convenience stores, and the like. Bakers in these environments are largely there for quality control as machines take care of much of the labour intensive aspect of the job.

  • Small Independent bakeries. These are largely family-run businesses. They may specialise in particular types of products, such as sourdough. In Australia many such businesses are owned by members of the Vietnamese community.
  • Chain stores. Recent years has seen the rise of chain stores selling the same range of products. For example, Bakers Delight is an Australia-wide operation well known for its range of products. Bakers in these stores bake according to a pre-determined recipe book. This can lead to fustration as some bakers do not agree with techniques used by the franchising model.
