Fritz Schoon has always been passionate about food, but his appetite is for baking. Schoon’s career officially began after he completed an apprenticeship with a fifth-generation Austrian master baker. It was then when he built a wood-fired oven at the back of the old bank building in Stellenbosch in 2010, which eventually turned into the popular Oude Bank Bakkerij.
