Early to Bed, Early to Rise
Step 1:
Bakers typically don't get to watch the sun rise, they rise for it. Bakeries start producing the pastries, breads and cakes in the wee hours of the morning, every morning, to process orders for restaurants, delis, and retail stores. The baking day is filled with making breads, rolls, pastries, doughnuts, cakes, pies, and anything else that a particular bakery offers.
The Secret Recipe
Step 1:
Bakers store their cookbooks in their brains, and have to be able to calculate the amount of raw material (flour, salt and yeast.) they will need in order to complete all the items needed each day. Some bakers are responsible not only for making the baked goods each workday, but also for doing inventory, ordering, and keeping the bakery stocked throughout the week.
Am I Too Kneady?
Step 1:
A baker has to operate an assortment of kitchen items each day, including commercial-grade mixers, blenders and ovens, microwaves, stoves, cutting and slicing machines and air guns for cake decorating. In addition, a baker has to have a good strong back and the ability to lift heavy boxes and bags of flour (50 to 75 lbs or more).
Keeping it Real
Step 1:
Some bakers are also in charge of the staff, and therefore have to perform administrative daily duties such as hiring, firing, and training, as well. They can also be in charge of creating new products, bringing in new accounts, and other facets of marketing. Bakeries, as with any food service position, also require strict adherence to local health department guidelines for sanitation and hygiene, so a baker must always be cognizant of their own performance and that of their staff, to avoid contamination of foods, and violations of health codes. So much more than you can ever think !!!!!!!

Great Reviews at the Town Crier Bakery
I went here a couple weeks ago for a last minute cake. I got a chocolate raspberry pound cake and it was the hit of the dinner party. The cake was absolutely delicious. I stopped in again a few days later and they had all new cakes in the display, so they must keep everything fresh. Unfortunately they didn't have any more pound cakes but I did try their cakes by the slice.... Tiramisu cake was not bad at all. I will definitely be using them as my bakery from now on.

Consult with your future spouse Find out if you're on the same page about design, flavor, and budget. He or she may not care that much about what the wedding cake looks like, but think that raspberry filing is vital.
Have a general idea of other aspects of the wedding You'll want your cake to coordinate with other details, so be firm on things such as:

MY new couch at the Town Crier Bakery

I am so excited my new comfy couch arrived at the bakery. I thought well why not give a spot to our customers that want to read the paper and have a hot cup of coffee and a hot fresh glazed donut in the morning. They can sit and relax and read or maybe look out the window and see the many changing fall colors in the village. Stop by and relax.

Wedding Cake At the Town Crier bakery
This beautiful Ivory wedding cake was a show stopper at her wedding. The cake was designed with a beautiful ivory lace design and buttons were added to make it seem like her wedding dress. The most important touch was the jewelry pin that was added that belonged to her grandmother and it meant so much to her. Like I said before I really love when the wedding cake has a personal story from the wedding couple. It almost becomes like a picture book to them. This is a custom made cake that was made for our customer.
