Alba was born in Barcelona a Christmas in 1926. Thanks to her mother and grandmother, she will develop kitchen skills and a passion for the bakery. Time ago, Mateu Serra was born in a little town in Lleida, with no heir but his entrepreneurship and bravery. Despite the time gap and their different backgrounds, their paths will cross when Alba starts working at the Serra’s Bakery, the first seed of the Escribà’s Bakery.
The journey will not be easy: it is a time of Post-war prohibitions and being a girl makes it more difficult. But Alba is inspired by the baker who, without resources and education, arrived at Barcelona after a long journey and set up his own bakery in the city. Alba will not give up: everything revolves around the bakery until she finally gets a job at the Escriba’s Bakery. Alba will become a testimony of this time in which Escribà will revolutionize the world of confectionery and chocolate.
The magical world of confectionary – Christian Escribà is one of the most popular bakers in the world- finds in L’obrador de prodigis her natural place where passion, bravery and creativity live together.
