Hi, I am Alissandro “Alex” Peña, a California native, a former Marine, a passionate Master Baker, a trained culinary chef, and a professional bread scientist.
My platform, Baking Evolution is about the history and evolution of Mexican Bread, referred to as “Pan Dulce,” and its recipes. The story behind this journey comes from my perspective as a passionate artisan baker. This story started from my family’s bakery and has transitioned into my professional experience as a bread scientist using bakery ingredients in a research & development (R&D) setting.
