Welcome To Seraphina's Oven
Custom Training for Artisan Bakers
Seraphina’s Oven rose from an idea to have a workspace next to a wood-fired brick oven. The enthusiasm and support of the community helped it evolve into a fully equipped bakery.
Seraphina’s launched at the end of 2018 and ran a full schedule of classes in the winter and spring. We welcomed hundreds of students, both professionals and SHBs (Serious Home Bakers), as well as children’s, custom classes and special events.
We also offer a consulting program for the trade from start-ups and expansion, formula configuration, dessert menu creation, equipment acquisition and staff training programs. Our experienced team will construct custom solutions for you and are available to travel world-wide to meet your business needs.
Season's Greetings and News
Happy New Year all you bakers out there. We hope that you are enjoying the festive season and we wish you a healthy and prosperous 2025.
Martin is still working for the Baking Association of Canada but with a 'best before' date of the end of 2025.
The baking world is still full of wonders; we were thrilled that two of our students have opened their own businesses and are thriving: Leah Hayward at Smør Scandinavian Bakery https://www.smor.ca/ in Sidney and Louise Pickles at Hanks Provisions https://www.hankscowichan.com/ in Duncan. Please let us know if you have transitioned professionally and we will help promote your new venture. Work with BAC allows us to travel, both in Canada and Europe and we continue to learn and meet amazing and talented bakers from around the world. As exciting and fulfilling as life is we miss baking with you around the bench at Seraphina's Oven!
