The tradition of bakery
Malta’s connection with bakery and bread making goes back many centuries with bread in particular considered an essential component of any Maltese meal. Renowned for making use of fresh, genuine and high quality ingredients, most local bakeries have preserved the family tradition, passing on their know-how from one generation to the next. In recent years, the bakery business on the island has changed to a great extent. Although some bakeries have maintained the tradition, producing their baked goods and distributing it to restaurants, grocers and other shops, others have grown to become confectioneries in their own right, selling all sorts of baked goods as well as dairy products, preserves, frozen foods and other items. Certain establishments have gone a step further, accepting orders over the phone and delivering goods to your doorstep. Nowadays, some bakery shops also double as cafes and bistros serving their fresh, baked goods of the day, together with coffee, tea and other beverages right on their premises. Such local bakeries are well-known for their pizzas and ftajjars baked with fresh, local toppings. For a taste of Maltese bread done the traditional way, head down to local towns with a long connection to bread making like Qormi and Zejtun. Here, bread is still baked in the traditional forn tal-hatab (wood burning oven).
Bakery items galore
Typically bakeries offer both savoury and sweet, flour-based types of bakery products. Bread is quite naturally the pride and joy of each and every bakery, however, the traditional Maltese bread (hobza tal-Malti) is not the only item on offer. From sliced sandwich bread made from white or wholemeal flour to breakfast and dinner rolls like bridge rolls, poppy buns and sesame rolls and artisan bread such as ciabatta, baguettes, brioche, bagels and Maltese ftajjar, the choice is certainly vast. In addition, bakeries also produce fancier alternatives, such as bread that contains spices and herbs, nuts or fruit, such as the popular fruit loafs, as well as baked goods made from alternative flours like rye bread. What is more, nowadays, many bakeries cater for those who suffer from allergies and food sensitivities with their dairy, nut and gluten-free products. Some bakeries may also provide part baked bread which consists of bread that is baked enough for its interior to set but requires some more baking at home for it to become golden brown.
Yet, bakeries are also well-known for their delicious baked confectionery. Doughnuts, muffins, brownies, croissants, cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies and cream tarts can all satisfy your sweet tooth. Other delicacies include flans and various gateaux ideal for that special occasion, as well as traditional Maltese sweets like qaghaq helwin (sweet biscuits rings), qaghaq tal-hmira (yeast biscuit rings) and biskuttini (village biscuits).
Special occasions
Many bakeries provide their services and products to clients who are organising special events. Custom cakes and cake pops are one of their most popular products with many bakeries having a long list of orders for wedding cakes, birthday cakes, baby shower cakes, cakes for baptisms and cakes for corporate clients in any flavour desired. In addition, cake decorating is very often required to transform a plain cake into an interesting masterpiece. Large bakeries that have their own facilities may also be able to offer outside catering with a menu that features their freshly baked staple. On the other hand, traditional bakeries are known for slow cooking their clients’ roasts in their traditional ovens, something typically done during Sundays, Christmas time and Easter Sunday.
