While you're in there, be sure to ask about the classes we offer for both new and experienced bakers alike! We're always open to new members, so don't be shy about asking for an application sheet.

Herd History, Location & Guidelines
Bakers Dozen started as a small business run by two ponies: rosa latte and Cupcake. These two mares knew that they wanted to start a herd and through time and effort were able to make their dreams come true! Since their grand opening of their headquarters, located in central Everville, they've taken everything in stride, accepting anypony who has an interest in baking, whether it's as a career path or an on and off hobby. The members of the Bakers Dozen strive to promote a love of baking in all of their members.

While the headquarters of Bakers Dozen is located in central Everville, this herd encourages its members to stretch their hooves and start their own bakeries all over Everchange, as They want to spread the love of baking into every season! Every bakery that is affiliated with the herd can be identified by a small plaque presented clearly on the door. If you want to apply to the herd without the hassle of coming all the way to Everville, just submit an application through one of these bakeries instead and they'll mail it over to H.Q. This is a popular option for summer or winter-aligned ponies.

The Three Tiers
Like every wonderful wedding cake, the Bakers Dozen has three tiers in which their members are grouped. The Top Tier is for the Founding Members and leaders of the Herd. The Middle Tier is for creatures who have established bakeries of their own and have an interest in hosting classes or events. The Base Tier is for every creature who loves to bake! Whether they're already bakers or merely have an interest in baking, this is the starting point for many of the members in the herd. Don't worry, there's always room to grow and join one of the higher Tiers!

Events & Classes
At the end of every year the herd will host their Sweet Soiree, inviting all of its members to a large pot luck to celebrate another year of baking. If you arrive early, you can bake in the H.Q. with its founding members, or you can bring some goodies from home! Other events may be held as the herd grows, but the Sweet Soiree is always the event that members look forward to every year.

Classes are a key part of the herd's foundation. Encouraging new bakers to sign up to their classes, their members have the option to both teach and attend these classes. Ranging from the basics of baking to more extensive techniques and specialty classes focusing on one type of baked good, you can find baking classes for any interested party! Classes are typically drop-in and the schedules of such will always be posted on the Event Board, in the H.Q. storefront. (Announcements will be made whenever a class ORP is being held within the herd.)

Username: Ruler
Pony Name: Amalahle
Cert:

Tier: Base! Amalahle is an amateur - very, very amateur - baker at her most optimistic, but she is head over paws for her mate, Brioche, who is a child of Cinnamon Sugar and the above posted Chip.

Pony Name: Rye
Cert:

Tier: Middle! Rye is co-owning bakery with her mate (who also happens to be Rosa Latte's daughter), Sprinkleberry Scoop! Name and location pending, these are newly-occurring plots lmao (it was a thought for a while but this is cementing it canonically, they're just getting off the ground as new business owners!)
Are You Interested In Classes?: Both! Rye's sort of shy for teaching classes but she's got so much talent and is so patient and kind, I think she'd do well and come out of her shell more that way.
What's Your Favorite Baked Treat?: ok I also love anything pumpkin

Welcome, Pomme! Rosa Latte is a big fan of fruit-themed bakeries in particular; she's absolutely thrilled to see another pony who loves fruit as much as she does - and apples are just so tasty!

Many welcomes to Chip, Amalahle and Rye! Rosa is tickled pink to see new faces and familiar ones. Maybe Rye can help persuade her granddaughter Sprinkleberry to join the herd? ;3

Welcome to the Dozen! We're happy to see another baker joining the middle ranks - and donuts, how tasty! I'm sure Rosa will be stopping by Better Morning Donuts for a strawberry filling breakfast treat!
