    Yup. When I was baking and they started bringing in these boxes of frozen dough that you would defrost in the loaf pan then proof then bake, I purposely fucked them up by putting them into the proofer before they were defrosted, I let them over proof sometimes. Generally tried to make them fail so I could keep mixing dough and doing something that was hard but satisfying.

    When they kept on with the frozen shite I booked some midweek days off and drove up to Whistler to go to a job fair. On my way up there I got a call from my manager to cover a shift and I told him I couldn’t because I was on my way to a job fair. I think he might have taken a bit of offense to my bluntness.

    I got a hotel job in like 30 mins that next day and was stoned at work for the next five months. It was amazing.

    I’m in Canada, back 20+ years ago I was baking from scratch and some frozen baked items but when I moved over to the bakery warehouse over the years more and more frozen dough and frozen pastries came out. There is definitely still some places that scratch bake but more and more bakeries are just faking it and doing everything from frozen.
