Baking in Cape Town means working with winter rain, summer heat, and humidity that swings hard. The Atlantic brings moisture that affects how doughs rise and how glazes set. Lakrids By Bülow operates in this climate reality — managing fermentation times, understanding how temperature shifts in a bakery change what's possible. The difference between a dry crumb and a tender one, between a crisp exterior and a soft interior, comes down to knowing how Cape Town's weather moves through a working day. Winter baking feels different from summer baking here. A bakery that adjusts its approach across seasons, that times proofing differently in July than in January, understands the craft beyond the recipe.

When choosing a bakery in Cape Town, freshness is the most important factor — arriving early ensures the best selection and recently baked items. Artisan bakeries tend to have a smaller range but higher quality. For speciality items like sourdough or gluten-free options, call ahead to check availability as these are not universally stocked.
