about us...We’re a non-profit organisation that’s all about helping bakery students and trainees in the UK and Ireland. Our goal is to make sure these young bakers have the skills and knowledge they need to excel in the baking industry. We’re talking about everything from baking bread and cakes to confectionery and pastry. We take the next generation of bakers very seriously.

#ABSTConference2026It is with great regret that the ABST Committee has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2026 Annual ABST Conference.
The conference has always provided a pivotal platform for students, colleges, and industry to come together to share knowledge, build connections, and celebrate emerging talent within the sector. Many successful careers have been born from networking opportunities and introductions made at the ABST Conference, making this postponement all the more disappointing for everyone involved. We sincerely appreciate the continued support of everyone who has championed ABST over the years and very much hope to welcome you back for ABST 2027. The full announcement is available to download below. |
