Pump Street Bakery reputation for world-class breads and pastries has spread far beyond Suffolk since it opened its doors in late 2010. On this behind-the-scenese tour you will meet Pump Street's founder and see the state of the art bakery as well as enjoying a delicious three-course lunch at the Pump Street cafe.
Pump Street Bakery opened just over a year ago in Orford on the Suffolk coast and it already has a cult following for it’s range of sourdough based loaves and delicious pastries. Artisan baker and founder, Chris Brennan, will take you on an exclusive tour of the bakery explaining the techniques and showing you the specialist equipment they use to create the perfect sourdough loaf.
On the tour you will learn what a precise technique they use to create a consistently high quality product. You will learn about fermenting, hydrating and retarding, and the importance of shaping and slashing each loaf.
The tour is led by artisan baker, Chris Brenan, whose enthusiasm for baking real bread using natural sourdough brought him out of retirement to establish the Pump Street Bakery. Chris learned from artisan bakers in San Fransisco and at St John in London and he will share his knowledge and passion on the course.
We will enjoy a delicious seasonal lunch showcasing a variety of Pump Street breads from 100% rye with Pinney’s smoked salmon and Walnut and Cherry Sourdough with local cheeses and relax in the stylish Pump Street Cafe in Orford’s pretty Market Square where you can put any final questions to Chris.
