Jane Mason

Jane Mason founded Virtuous Bread in 2010 to make it fun and easy for people all over the world to make and find and learn about bread and in so doing to forge the link between bread and virtue. Jane bakes, teaches baking, speaks about bread as a catalyst for social change and published her first book, All You Knead Is Bread in October 2012.

Completely self taught, Jane has had the fortune to bake with excellent bakers from South Africa to Sweden, and it is this knowledge of global bread and its role in the lives of billions of people all over the world that makes her special.

She is currently working on her second book and is writing some beautiful booklets on seasonal bread and special bread techniques. On her website www.virtuousbread.com there are videos about all aspects of the baking process from proofing yeast to shaping baguettes. They are a valuable addition to her books.
