During lockdown I learnt to bake sourdough bread. The first 2 months I battled to learn this "dark" science, with repeated flops. Finally, I managed to bake a loaf that we could sell to clients.

In late 2020 Emmanuel, joined our team alongside Thabang to offer fine food products to Hoedspruit residents and visitors.

Thabang's charm and his amazing barista skills made him very popular with our clients. Thabang has had multiple job offers and his coffees and friendly service will be served somewhere around our lovely town.

Emmanuel's breads and cakes are next level delicious. His standards are very high resulting in our drawing compliments regularly from people all over the world.

Emmanuel has been offered a management position which he has accepted.

I had to find a new and train a new baker in 2 weeks. Unfortunately, it's a lengthy process to train someone up attain our high artisan bakery standards. This can take months, and requires crazily long hours from my already tight schedule.

After consideration, I have come to the decision to close the deli and bakery and sadly announce that our last loaf will be baked on Saturday 31 January 2026. The team at Hoed Rock Café thank you for your support over the last 5 years.

Deli equipment has been reserved by a friend to offer the delicious products to you all. Watch this space!
