Bread And Butter

Yesterday the girls and I were very excited and super blessed to have the wonderful opportunity to visit our local Bakers Delight
And have a behind the scenes look (and a play) at what goes on and how they make our bread.

We were met by the friendly staff and shown out the back
Where we met the franchise owner, the lovely Taysha,
and Baker Tim.
He was very patient and lots of fun
He walked the girls through the process of bread making

He explained about the wonderfully fresh, Australian sourced ingredients, about the yeast, salt, improver, oil and water.
Talking about the wonderful products he makes everyday from scratch.
Poor man is at work at 1am, to start the baking of all that yummy bread!

The girls then impressed him with their knowledge of seeds
But most of the time the girls were very hands on

We were shown how the dough was made.

They weighed out all the ingredients

Tim showed us how to make it

into a few different loaves

Then the girls got to play with the dough

making a block loaf

and seeing if they could get theirs to fit in the tin

They had fun icing finger buns

and then they had free reign to decorate them,

which they all enjoyed.

They helped make some date scones
Going through the whole process
From squashing out the dough

to squashing it in the cutter

to taking them out of the cutter

to watching them come out of the oven

and then yelling “HOT SCONES” so customers could hear them and come buy the hot scones!
The girls impressed Taysha with how good their plaited bread looked
.
and then (the best part of the day according to this flour face)

the girls were given some dough

and allowed to make their own pizzas

which were baked

I even made one, a larger one, and Megan put on the topping

We were allowed to take all the yummy treats home
Along with some other goodies

We all enjoyed the day and Megan said it best, with her doodling in the flour

One of the things that I like about Bakers Delight is that they are different
They have wonderful, friendly staff and their bread is yummy
and yesterday I got to see why

When they talk about bread they glow.
You can see they are passionate about what they do and I think that shows through in their products
And I know this is true because their passion flowed through into us.

and if it’s made with passion
it’s delicious!

I think it is fair to say we all love Bakers Delight!!
And did you know that you can love Bakers Delight too??
On Facebook
and on Twitter

We all had a wonderful time and I can’t thank Taysha and Tim (and the girls at the front counter) enough!


The smiles on the girls faces just showed that memories were made

Fun memories!

Thank you Bakers Delight for the opportunity and allowing us to have these wonderful memories!
