Goals of World Baking Day
Promoting baking. Baking Day aims to increase interest in home baking, which helps create a cozy atmosphere and bring warmth to everyday life.

Inspiring experimentation. This day encourages people to think outside the box, try something new and experiment with ingredients and techniques.

Family time. Baking often brings families and friends together, creating an opportunity for shared activities in the kitchen. It is a way to spend time together, teach children the traditions of cooking and create new memories.

Supporting small businesses. Many bakeries, pastry shops and local producers participate in World Baking Day events, offering special offers, workshops and recipes to encourage people to bake at home.

Charity events. World Baking Day is also associated with charity. Many people organize bakery fairs where they sell homemade products and the proceeds go to help those in need or to support various social initiatives.
