Bakery & Confectionery Training Course at Flaminio Vocational Training Centre Welcome

A bakery is an establishment or shop that produces and sells food items based on flour and baked in ovens. Bakeries sell food items such as bread, bagels, buns, cakes, pastries, pies, cookies, muffins, pizza, brownies, etc. As seen from the above list, bakeries produce and sell both sweet and savory food items. Bakery produces a vast variety of foods, unlike a confectionery. You can buy food for main meals as (bread, buns, bagels), desserts such as cakes and pastries, snacks such as cookies and brownies. A person who owns and maintains a bakery is known as a baker. Some bakeries also function as cafés, serving tea and coffee to customers who want to consume the food products in the establishment itself.

A confectionery is a place that sells sweets. The sweets or candy produced in a sweets’ shop (confectionery) is also known as confectionery. The main difference between bakery and confectionery is that confectionery only sells sweets. Although a bakery produces and sells sweet baked food items, it also sells unsweetened food products. The term confectionery is broadly categorized into two terms: bakers’ confections and sugar confections. Sugar confections include sweet, sugar-based foods which are usually eaten as snacks. Candies, chocolates, and chewing gum fall under the category of sweet confections. Baker’s confections include sweet baked products, particularly those that are eaten as desserts. Cakes, pastries, donuts, etc. are examples of this category.
