Craftsmanship-Inspired African Bakeries

The Jason Bakery in Cape Town Boasts Artisan Products

The Jason Bakery is focused on providing artisan bread and breakfast items — from 66% Sourdough Rye to Multigrain Seed Loaf. With three locations in Cape Town, the business is steadily expanding as the demand for contemporary bakeries rises.

What sets out Jason Bakery from the rest is its dedication to providing fresh goods that rely on craft techniques. The ingredients that are employed in making the bread, pastries and dishes are sustainable and organically-minded, as well as ethically sourced. In a nutshell, Jason Bakery uses "the best ingredients available." In addition, weekends are dedicated to being creative with "kickass breakfast items [like] [...] doughssant and flapjack stack."

To assure the best quality, the baking is done for that day and any leftovers are donated to a local charity.
