"Baking has traditionally been performed at home for day-to-day meals
and in bakeries and restaurants for local consumption. When production
was industrialized, baking was automated by machines in large factories.
The art of baking remains a fundamental skill and is important for
nutrition, as baked goods, especially bread, are a common and important
food, both from an economic and cultural point of view. A person who
prepares baked goods as a profession is called a baker."
