At the dawn of the 21st century, the International Union of Bakers and Confectioners (UIBC) established World Bread Day as a way to highlight one of the world’s oldest foods and honor the bakers around the world who dedicate their craft to it.
Each year on October 16th, we celebrate the culinary and cultural significance of bread. The UIBC deliberately chose October 16th as the day for this celebration to coincide with the anniversary of the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, founded in 1945 under the motto of ‘Fiat Panic’, meaning ‘Let there be bread.’
Join us as we journey through the history of bread, explore its roots and evolution, and discover ways you can celebrate World Bread Day this year! Order your loaf from us so you can Celebrate this day through buying small and local!!!
