Students from all over the world gather each year in Amsterdam to follow the summer school programmes offered by the University of Amsterdam (UvA). Baking Lab hosted a group of international students following the program 'The Circular City: Towards a Sustainable Urban Ecosystem' beginning of July '23 to demonstrate, taste and share our story in reducing food waste and circular entrepreneurship.

Every year the pharmaceutical company Teva organises an inspirational week for their employees, full of events, to draw attention to a chosen subject. Baking Lab got invited to speak for this year’s subject: sustainability. After attending a team building at Baking Lab, the team that was organising the event at Teva got enthusiastic about the way we reduce food “waste” in our bakery. Waste between brackets, because we often try to look at waste as a resource for new products.

We are offering a number of new workshops, including a workshop about foods that promote brain health and how to apply this in baking; For the home bakers with a bit more experience we now have an intermediate sourdough workshop; If you are looking for a more informal way of learning about the art of bread baking, have a look at the new format 'the Baking Lab experience'.
