Baking by night (10.30pm - 8.30am)

Freshly baked for 9am opening
At The Chapel bakery
Like artisanal elves, Tom (baker extraordinaire) and myself (the apprentice) baked all night to produce a delicious array of baked goods for The Chapel's bakery. Weighing, mixing, scaling, moulding, shaping, laminating, cake making, pastry rolling, loading, unloading, refreshing...and so it went on into the early hours. What an amazing experience! There is not a moment to spare - to be honest that suits me as the last thing you want at that time of the morning is to be clock watching!
