About the Author ........................
The morning is the bakerys busiest time. The
staff gets to work early even before the sun rises!
There is a lot of work to do before the bakery opens
its doors for business.
The back room may be bigger than the front
where the display cases are. In the back, giant mixers
prepare dough and cake batter. Bakers roll dough on
long countertops. Cakes and cupcakes are decorated
with swirls of icing. Bakers slide wide pans of breads
into huge ovens. The back of the bakery is where all
the action is.
Baking is a process. Here,
bakers knead the dough until
its just right.
