Bakeries in Sri Lanka

I got the opportunity to visit bakeries around Colombo and Negombo to learn more about the bakery industry in Sri Lanka and the manufacturing process! It's quite an interesting experience as I got to see both the traditional baking methods (using firewood oven) to mechanised baking (using machines) to large scale industrial baking. Here are some photos from some of the bakeries I visited! Didn't include all as there are too many!

Traditional firewood oven - they would place firewood inside and burn the firewood. After the ashes settle down, they would take out the firewood and place the pan inside to bake the bread!

Crushing bread crumbs but no idea what they do with it

Mechanised Bakery - larger scale baking process using machinese

Large cake in the making!

Hotel bakery - standard of bakery products is definitely higher!
