artisan baker
Sourdough loaf maker
An artisan baker makes bread and pastries using traditional methods—hand-shaping, long fermentation, quality ingredients—rather than industrial processes.
The term distinguishes craft bakers from commercial operations: She buys her sourdough from an artisan baker at the farmers market.
Like other artisan labels, it suggests skill, care, and small-batch production.
