Bang Ib
Halal Dough King
Surawee Umasa
Owner and founder of Del & Dia Café and Del & Dia Bakery
Ao Nang, Krabi, Thailand
Bang Ib is an entrepreneur and halal bakery product developer. His commitment to raising the quality and standards of halal baking led to Del & Dia Café, a halal croissant café in Ao Nang, Krabi.
His hands-on experience covers both bakery production and business management: developing recipes, selecting ingredients, controlling production, planning kitchens, and making products for retail and online sales.
BUSINESS
Real experience in every lesson
His specialties include croissants, sourdough, Neapolitan-style pizza using Direct and Biga methods, baguettes, shio pan, soft bread and commercial bakery products.
Alongside online courses and private training, he advises restaurants, cafés and hotels on setting up bakery departments and production systems. His teaching draws on real kitchen experience, helping learners understand the process, solve problems and apply their skills to production and business.
“I want my students to do more than follow a recipe. I want them to understand the dough, understand the process, and use that knowledge to build a livelihood.”
