16 Creating a Successful Micro-Bakery - Welbeck x Creating a Successful Micro-Bakery - Welbeck The growing popularity of artisan bread, cakes and pastries across the UK is creating an ever-increasing demand for locally produced, real bread and baked goods.

The course is delivered by Ian Waterland, who has established and runs a successful bakery in Leicestershire.

He then changed his career and completed the Advanced Diploma in Artisan Food. David has since become an invaluable member of the team at The School of Artisan Food working as a technical co-ordinator and associate baking tutor. David will share his tips and secrets to making, looking after and using a sourdough starter.
