Bakeries come in many different forms in the UK with major chains like Greggs dominating the market.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the most exciting kind, however, are traditional artisan bakeries that produce baked goods in limited quantities, mostly using traditional methods and natural ingredients.<\/p>\n

This makes freshly baked loaves of bread, cakes and buns even harder to get hold of, which according to one baker, is part of their unique charm.<\/p>\n

Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk Aidan Monks, co-owner of Lovingly Artisan Bakery revealed secrets of the \u00a35 billion trade which makes up a large sector of the UK food industry.<\/p>\n

One of his biggest revelations was that the bakery operation starts way before the crack of dawn, in his case, at 2am.<\/p>\n

Aidan explained: \u201cWe\u2019re a 24-hour operation. A new morning team arrives at 2am, allowing the evening team to head home for some well-earned sleep.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany don\u2019t realise that early mornings are a magical time; full of beautiful sunrises and big skies, the perfect backdrop to enjoy a croissant and the first brew of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

When it comes to exactly what\u2019s baked first, the expert unveiled that the week does in fact start on a Monday, when \u201ceverything begins again\u201d.<\/p>\n
