Brendan Wong is a bread baker and budding entrepreneur of the Origin Baking Co. in Orange County, CA. Formerly a food scientist, Brendan spent his first few years after college developing packaged food products for large and small companies. In 2017, Brendan attended a professional bread course at the San Francisco Baking Institute, after which he became hooked and has devoted himself to the craft ever since. Now, he uses all his knowledge and experience in the food industry to bring some of that San Francisco flavor back to his hometown of Orange, California to share with his local community.

Brendan shares about his background in food science, being able to bring that forth into his new love of baking. He explains about learning to bake bread and other baked goods in detail. He has honed his skills and currently does pop-up shops to sell his products. He goes into the building of a bakery business, from the kitchen space needed, the plans to scale up, and who his customers will be from wholesale to retail. One will be surprised at what truly goes into baking bread and croissants and the effort to bring a business to full-scale capacity.
