ASB names four to Baking Hall of Fame
The American Society of Baking (A.S.B.) will induct four industry leaders into the Baking Hall of Fame on Feb. 27, 2017, with special ceremonies during BakingTech 2017 to be held in Chicago. They and their affiliated organizations are:
• Albert L. (Bud) Cason, Bud’s Best Cookies, Birmingham, Ala.
• Murray and Marvin Lender, Lender’s Bagel Bakery, New Haven, Conn.
