I like the composition and detail in this shot. And maybe it's how my monitor is calibrated, but it looks a little gray to me, not so much sepia.

Good choice of toning for the subject. This is practically a visual recipe for bread.

I don't know whether I should ask for your methods on taking such pictures or making such bread, both are impressive!

The slight sepia/warm brown tones really gives this a feel of an old photograph. I really get the feel of an immigrant who labors hard at his baker's shop to achieve the American Dream. The subject and that sepia tone just brings me to an early 1900's era - a very much bread and butter "Great Gatsby" type era representation. The lighting is excellent, the composition of elements is wonderful, and this is a creative capture of a spirit of the country and an era in it's time. Great work - 9.
