At 32 years old, Venezuelan artisan baker Aaron Mendoza has already made a name for himself in the world of baking. Born and raised in the heart of Caracas, he began his professional journey in 2016 under renowned Master Baker Julio Díaz. After fifteen years studying Customs Administration, International Trade and Maritime Commerce, his true passion always called him back to the art of bread .

Aaron refined his craft alongside baking icons—Richard Bertinet, Vanessa Kimbell, Jeffrey Hamelman and Jordi Morera—learning the importance of technique and flavor in every loaf . In 2021 he scaled back collaborations to focus on his own vision: bringing Venezuelan baking traditions to Houston. Every roll, bun and boule carries the essence of his Caracas roots and a deep dedication to artisanal quality.
