It all began thousands of years ago, when crushed grains mixed with water met fire and the first flatbreads were born. In ancient Egypt, an accidental fermentation led to fluffy loaves, turning bread into a staple of civilization. From India’s tandoor to Greek clay ovens, baking soon became an art form.
By the Middle Ages, bread fed both the masses and the elite, with hearty loaves for everyday people and soft, rich breads for royal feasts. The Industrial Revolution brought machines, transforming bread into a global phenomenon.Today, bread is more than a food - it's culture on a plate. From tangy sourdough to chewy naan and crusty baguette, every bite tells a story of evolution, resilience, and creativity.
Step into the world of breads and learn the art of baking pretzels and baguettes while exploring their rich histories along the way. Watch a live bagel-baking demo by an expert and immerse yourself in the cultural journey of bread in this experience.

What's a 'Trove Experience’
As our cities swell, we tend to do fewer and repetitive things for recreation. With Trove, you get to break the monotony and explore fresh activities in your city, meet like-minded souls, and develop a deeper appreciation for the finer things.
Most of us likely resonate with terms like 'workshops' or 'events.’ What makes these an 'experience' is the energies we put into scouring the right artists, creators and storytellers, to ensure that each Trove Experience leaves you enriched with meaningful moments to collect for your very own treasure trove.
