Baker (profession)
Baker or baker is a profession that can be divided into two large groups:

1. Someone who bakes and sells bread, biscuits and the like as a profession, called an artisan baker.
2. Bread liquor or peddler, who does not bake himself, called a cold baker in the Netherlands.

Both work in or for a bakery and the term bakery also has two meanings:

1. A workshop where people bake bread, biscuits, etc. in an oven with a separate area where they sell these goods.
2. A shop where people sell bread, biscuits and the like without producing them themselves.

Bakery
The word bakery has two meanings:

1. a workshop where the baker bakes bread, cake, pastry and the like in an oven, often with a separate room next to it where these wares are sold.
2. a shop where people sell bread, cakes, pastries without producing these goods themselves.

A bakery is a shop where you can buy bread, cakes, pastries and pastry and related products. Many bakeries bake their own bread; these types of shops are called a bakery. A specialty store for pastries and cakes is called a confectioner.

Other bread shops sell bread baked in a bread factory overnight. A relatively new development in this field is the type of bread called prepain. This bread is almost cooked and can be baked in a sandwich shop, whereby the fresh aroma and the heat emitted by the product suggest that it is a bread produced on site.
In the past, the baker went by the door with a horse and cart and later with a cargo bike or car full of white and brown wheat bread and rye bread and rusk. Today there are many types of bread and sandwiches available with many variants and their own names. There are also variations per region or province. Some bread shops have a lunchroom where you can eat luxury sandwiches.

Especially on Saturdays it is a busy day in many bakeries in the Netherlands, because shops in the Netherlands are usually closed on Sundays and public holidays. In Belgium, most bakers are open on Sunday morning. As a result, there are often queues of customers on Sunday mornings for their weekly fresh coffee cake.

In the old days, the people themselves brought the flour ground by a miller to a central bakery.
