Master baker, Il Toscano in Corato

Marco Lattanzi is a **master baker** who created **[Il Toscano](https://www.panificioiltoscano.it/)** in Corato, Apulia, the artisan bakery where bread is made only by the **traditional method** and with sourdough.

He built his career **starting from the land**, learning from a young age the **value of the raw ingredient and of the time** needed to grow and transform it.

After professional experience in Italy and abroad, he chose to **return to his roots** with a clear aim: to **give bread back its deepest meaning**, uniting ethics, taste and identity.

In his bakery he uses **sourdough exclusively**, through which he expresses his own character and sensitivity.

Every loaf comes from a careful selection of **Italian flours** from **short supply chains** and from mills that share his values of transparency and respect for the land.

His philosophy is based on **constant research** and experimentation, aimed at **making the most even of flours considered humbler**, turning them into authentic taste experiences.

For Marco, **quality comes from time, care** and the will to offer a **sincere product**, able to tell its own story and that of the land it comes from.
