Where Does The Dough Come From?

Many shops and grocery store chains bake bread. You know it's true, because you smell it baking. You buy it warm.

But, where does the dough come from? Some big stores and pizza chains bake dough they receive frozen. Their task? Thaw it, shape it and bake it.

That isn't the case at Ridgefield's Ross' Bread, 109 Danbury Road, an artisan
Bakery and cafe.

"We make the dough right here in the back," said Assistant Manager Kim Waring. "We have four bakers. "

The bakery changes its offerings day by day, and Thursday by 1:30 p.m., the shelves were reduced to baguettes, kalamata sourdough loaves, sourdough, honey wheat bread, rolls and ciabatta rolls. Personal-sized quiche were available, plus pastries and cookies.
