“We make about 13 to 14,000 cookies every week. For wholesale it's about 28,000 items weekly. We can get all of these things done with planning, a great team, and really big mixers.” Bon Appetit spends a day on the line with Brianna Fortiz, pastry chef at The Good Batch in Brooklyn, a small bakery that also operates as a mini factory for 200 wholesale clients in New York.

The way the owner knows and gladly lets Brianna runs the shop's operation speaks volumes about B's professionalism

@clevequeensny 6 ай бұрын

You don't know what you're talking about. You can see her inexperience. And the owner doesn't want to deal with the cameras. And she can't teach anybody anything.

That comfort cake seems like it would be perfect for an adult. Like, not too sweet, a little sour, just more depth of flavor and not just slapping you in the face with sugar. I'd definitely want a slice.

very interesting. I admit I would have expected freshly baked cakes if I was buying one. But then I realized, if they are just baked, they would be too soft to frost like that.

@509734 6 ай бұрын

I bet that’s the only reason why they freeze cakes so that they’re frost-able and they don’t stockpile them otherwise

@supernova622 6 ай бұрын

It also allows you to do large batches of one variety at a time. If they were mixing and baking for a single cake at a time, they'd never be able to get ahead. It's time and cost inefficient

Freezing also helps to keep the cakes moist.
