Frankfurt's bakery Huck: The first AI bread conquers the city!

in the Frankfurt bakery Huck, which has been considered a traditional company since 1936 and is now managed in the third generation, has come up with something very special: a bread that was developed in collaboration with artificial intelligence (AI). The owner Tanja Huck wanted to explore the possibilities of the digital world in the craft and attended further training at the Koerting Institute in Bad Homburg. The idea of combining traditional baking art came up with modern technologies. frisn.de reports that Tanja Huck and her team developed an innovative spelled-Miso-Sesame bread within just twelve days.

The chat bread , as the new product is called, combines German and Japanese baking traditions. A AI-based chatbot analyzed over 200 international bread recipes and provided new ideas for the ingredients and preparation. In addition to the selection of the ingredients, which also include rice syrup, the bread is made without additives and captivates with natural sweetness. Master baker Ronny was surprised by the unconventional list of ingredients, which contains miso and sea salt instead of conventional salt.

a future -oriented project

The combination of tradition and technology is not only visible when baking. Together with the new bread, the bakery also launched an informative website on which a virtual avatar by Tanja Huck can be seen. This linguistic virtual assistant speaks several languages and is said to contribute to a better exchange with the approximately 250 employees who come from different countries. In addition, new creations of the chat bread are being considered, including variants with ingredients from France or Scandinavia.
