It gets going with 'a day at the bakery,' then takes up baking and business skills, start-up costs, sources of financing, legal and tax matters, local planning and heatlh regulations, retail and kitchen layout and design, adding a cafe or deli, getting supplies at the best prices, the product list, pricing and costs, marketing and public relations, maintenance and clean-up, employees, expansion and diversification, common business problems, and the business plan.

Checklists, profiles of successful bakeries, plus an appendix of further reading, baking/culinary schools, professional associations, a model personnel manual, and a list of software supplement the text.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book
If you look for a book that explains clearly and concretely the baker job and how to run a bakery business, buy this book. It's very useful and very practical.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great read for daughter
My daughter will be opening up a bakery and this book is a valuable tool. After just reading a couple of pages she announced, "this is just what I needed."



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Editing a bit sloppy but message clear - BUY THIS BOOK!
Too many books written for people interested in starting their own business are written by professional writers who have no conception of just how deeply one's determination must be if they are to succeed. This book is not one of those.
Zachary Schat has done a great job explaining the pitfalls and rewards of owning your own bakery. I re-lived my early days in starting my bakery, Billy Boy's, that one day would venture before the world as Billy Bob's Pot Pies fast food franchise.
Although this book concentrates on his experience in bread-baking, it is general enough that it can be used in any sort of bakery and many deli's and restaurants.
[...]
Again, this is an excellent book that I will keep in my reference library.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Terrific Genuine Insight
So there are a few grammatical errors. But yoou can stil readd it and see that their is valuble information in it!

I have worked in two bakeries and have decorated cakes professionally for over 8 years. This book is fabulous and very generous for Schat to share - it really gives you an inside look into the heart of a bakery... what it takes to run one well.
I enjoyed learning from his expirience.
