Ms. Kittiya Wongkhung, the current owner of Kittiya Bakery in Nakhon Pathom Province, said that she has opened a bakery for more than 8 years, which offers a variety of products. The highlight of the shop is the fresh young coconut bakery. However, with the changing consumer trends, there is a lifestyle that emphasizes convenience, delicious taste, appetizing appearance, and healthy desserts, which has resulted in increased competition in the market. Therefore, in order for the shop to develop consistently and have more bakery menus to meet the needs of customers, she is interested in developing her skills. By joining the training on making macarons and timberings, which are very popular desserts and are currently trending on social media, she gained a lot of knowledge and techniques, such as selecting the type of ingredients to use to get different textures and flavors, selecting bakery ingredients that are mindful of health and have natural ingredients, and not using synthetic substances or preservatives, which will create a new customer base when sold.
