Septe József, president of the Hungarian Baker’s Association stressed that 20 August for the bakers is not only the foundation of the state, but also the celebration of the harvest. In honor of the harvest, the product competition was held for the fifth time this year in which the winning spelt-sourdough bread was selected out of 45 entries. The thick-skinned bread of the Pedró Pékség Kft. made from natural ingredients, will be available in the stores after 20 August as well – he added. (MTI)
