In a home kitchen, printed recipes might withstand a lifetime of splatters and handwritten notes. But at Crossroads Bake Shop, the library of recipes needs to be reprinted from time to time, thanks to the hard and frequent use they get in a busy, professional kitchen. This pile of well-loved pages was photographed for posterity (and, of course, instagram) before new versions of these time-tested recipes were reprinted and pressed into service. When your breads and pastries are as treasured by the community as those that emerge from the ovens at this Doylestown institution (opened in 1991), you need to have those recipes saved in more than one place.
