Pastry Maker — French Pâtisserie ⇄ Middle-Eastern Fusion in Manama

Layers Bakery & Restaurant – Alydia, Manama, Bahrain

Layers is Bahrain’s destination for artisanal viennoiserie and elegant desserts. As we expand our brunch-forward bakery-restaurant, we’re searching for a Pastry Maker who masters classic French techniques and isn’t afraid to infuse them with the bold flavours of the Middle East—think pistachio-rose croissants, saffron mille-feuille, and date-caramel Paris-Brest.

What You’ll Do

• Daily production of laminated viennoiserie (croissants, brioches, kouign-amann), petits gâteaux, choux, entremets, and tea-time cakes—all 100 % from scratch.

• Lamination, tempering & glazing: execute perfect layers, mirror glazes, mousselines, and silky ganaches.

• Middle-Eastern flavour R&D: develop limited-edition items using pistachio, halva, cardamom, rose, orange-blossom, tahini, dates, saffron, za’atar, etc.

• Consistency & hygiene: follow our HACCP-certified SOPs, maintain meticulous records, and guide junior bakers.

• Cross-team collaboration: sync with bread, gelato, and savoury stations to deliver seamless brunch service.

Minimum requirements

• 3 + years in a professional pâtisserie or artisan bakery.

• Solid understanding of ingredient functionality and shelf-life in a warm-climate market.

• Early-morning availability and weekend/holiday flexibility.
