@Dusty Commons You know, I am learning that pressure is not @Henry Hunter's style, at all! Both of his communities that I am in are safe spaces. People come for any myriad of reasons...but they stay because they realize it's a safe space to learn, grow, and even make mistakes, without being crushed!๐Ÿ˜‰

๐Ÿž New Tool: Price Your Loaf Calculator
Weโ€™re constantly upgrading the tools we put in front of you, and today Iโ€™m excited to share the new Price Your Loaf Calculator.

Return using the same device and browser, and your saved loaf will still be there. ๐Ÿ‘‰ Use the calculator here: https://price-your-loaf-fotm.vercel.app/ Open Price Your Loaf You can also install it so it works much like an app: ๐Ÿ“ฑ iPhone or iPad Open it in Safari, tap Share, then choose Add to Home Screen. ๐Ÿค– Android Open it in Chrome, tap the menu, then choose Add to Home screen or Install app. ๐Ÿ’ป Computer Bookmark it, or use your browse. https://price-your-loaf-fotm.vercel.app/ ~Henryโญ๐Ÿ”ฅ ---------------------------------------- Want to see everything From Oven to Market has to offer, and whether it's the right fit for you?

@Henry Hunter This will be so helpful to bakers who are ready to turn their baking into a business - or will be... Actually seeing that it really IS possible to make a profit from selling their bread takes a lot of the fear out of this process! No more guesswork! No more wishing and hoping to make a profit. This is the REAL $ path! How encouraging this is! Another great tool!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

The Bad Loaf, the Missed Order, the Lost Customer
Every baker who's ever sold to the public has handed someone a loaf that wasn't their best work. I have. Those aren't signs you're failing. They're the cost of doing this work in front of real people. What separates the bakers who last from the ones who quietly disappear isn't that they never make mistakes. It's how fast and how cleanly they fix them. That's this video. It's Module 6.5 in From Oven to Market, and I walk you through the three moments every market baker hits: the bad loaf, the missed order, and the customer who drifts away. The rest of Module 6 is about the same thing from the front end, turning a first-time buyer into a regular who keeps coming back. While you're in the classroom, take a look around. The website builder and Recipe Pantry Pro are both in there waiting for you. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/i8f1lh5fles Not sure selling your bread is even for you? Take the 60-second quiz: https://bakinggreatbread.blog/bread-business-quiz/ Perfection is not required. Progress is. Henryโญ๐Ÿ”ฅ

These are more than bread bakers' principlesโ€ฆ These are life principles about how to treat people. Excellent! Humility is key!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

OK, Iโ€™ll tell you my secret sauce.
Thereโ€™s a little something extra I do to my cinnamon filling that most folks wonโ€™t catch, and thatโ€™s the whole point. I add about an eighth of a teaspoon of nutmeg. No more than that. Nutmeg is strong, and you donโ€™t want anyone biting into a slice and thinking โ€œnutmeg.โ€ You want it working quietly in the background, rounding out the cinnamon so the whole thing tastes deeper. Then I add a few drops of extract. Vanilla does the job just fine, but lately Iโ€™ve been reaching for banana. Same rule applies. Not enough to actually taste it, just enough to give the filling a sense of something different. People take a bite and canโ€™t quite name what makes it better. Thatโ€™s what youโ€™re after.

@Henry Hunter This looks so delicious! Before you sliced it, I couldn't tell where the swirls were going to end up, but they're perfect!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ. Absolutely scrumptious, I'm sure!

I recently started baking sourdough bread after reading The Biblio Diet. I began with einkorn flour, & most recently, GF loaves. Still a newbie!๐Ÿ˜
