The Behavior of Bakery Consumers in Tucdao, Kawayan, Biliran

A Research in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement in Practical Research 1

 CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study

The bread making process originated in ancient times. During those period, the basis of

the operation was just to mix flour with other ingredients, for example, water, fat, salt and some

source of aeration followed by baking, unlike today a variety of methods have been developed in

making leaven.

Filipinos are a rice-eating people, and no meal is complete, it seems, without hot rice to

offset the delicious viands in our menus. But despite our desperate affinity with rice, bread still

occupies an important place in the Filipino diet. Most commonly, this is during breakfast, with the

iconic pan de sal or “slice” white bread (also known as pan Americano) from commercial

bakers. Sometimes, we also make room for bread during morning or afternoon snacks, including

the traditional ensaymada or Spanish roll, the butter or margarine-filled “Hispanis” bread, or any

number of biscuits, cakes and buns.

Bread production became a profession, and its sale in large scale gave rise to bakeries.

Bakeries have passed through several changes from their appearance to the present. These changes

were in terms of physical structure, production systems, kind ofproducts, service that they provide,

and many others. Some of these changes result from a natural response of bakeries when they face

demands resulting from transformations occurring in the market.(Santos, 2012)
