    Liana Bandziulis, Michael Clive and David Weidman are spearheading the Black Rock Bakery, a theme camp at Burning Man located in the French Quarter, one of the largest villages at the festival. They shipped out multiple ovens, a deep fryer, a three basin sink, KitchenAid mixers, immersion blenders, 500 gallons of liquid nitrogen and more to Black Rock City where they will build a fully functioning bakery in the middle of the desert. They plan to make everything from wedding cakes (people do get married at Burning Man) to challah for Shabbat.

    Good Food producer Gillian Ferguson met up with the trio before they left for Nevada desert.
