World Master Baker Peter Bienefelt at China Bakery fair 2018

BakeryTechChina will be supported by Peter Bienefelt, World Master Baker of 2018 Bakery in the category ‘nutritional bread making’. The Dutchman will showcase his capabilities on the China Bakery fair 2018 in Shanghai by demonstrations on Thursday (May 10th) and Friday (May 11th).

Pieter Bienefelt

Peter Bienefelt won the title World Master Baker in February 2018 as the third baker of the world in the prestigious Masters de la Boulangerie competition. With remarkable concepts and courage, he managed to convince the jury of the special bread from the Netherlands.

Peter Bienefelt, who owns the Atelier du Pain bakery in the Rotterdam suburb, says he trained like a top athlete to win the competition, including taking on a mental coach. The competition included baking bread with the ‘wow’ factor, for which Bienefelt used purified Oosterschelde seawater, algae, squid ink, currents and olives. ‘The bread had a very low percentage of salt,’ he told website Bakkerswereld.nl. ‘That is totally in.’ Bienefelt had to see off the best bakers from Canada, Australia, Japan, Taiwan and Turkey to win the prize but says time was his biggest enemy. ‘I did take time to eat and drink… imagine you had to go to the restroom,’ he said. ‘You got five penalty points for every extra five minutes. And you cannot afford that at this level.’ (source: https://www.mastersdelaboulangerie.com)
