Karl De Smedt BIO:
"For as long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a baker-confectioner. After graduating in 1988 from the bakery/confectionery school in Brussels I worked for six years as a patissier in a bakery in Brussels. In 1994 I started to work for Puratos as a test baker, since then I worked in different departments as test baker, demonstrator, product manager, corporate trainer and product training manager.
 As of 2002 flour allergy has limited my activities in the bakery.
 I'm is passionate about food, especially about sourdough breads.
 Since 2013 I am on a quest for sourdough to preserve their biodiversity in our sourdough library. As such I am the only sourdough librarian in the world 😉.
 If you or your company have a sourdough you can always register it on our website. That way you can guide consumers to a positive message about sourdough. Maybe your sourdough one day will end up in our library."
