Baker Smurf (original French name Schtroumpf Boulanger) is a character that appears in the Smurf comics as the Smurfs' baker, and in the live-action Smurfs movies.
He wears an apron and a baker's hat. He is always making cakes, cookies, and other goodies -- a role that was assigned to the 1981 cartoon show version of Greedy. He is featured in some comics. He hates it when Greedy takes his treats, which causes him to spend more time chasing Greedy than baking. In the 2011 Smurfs movie, he is seen carrying some pies that Clumsy knocks over and steps on.
In the comics during the annual Imitate Festival in which every Smurf has to take the place of another, Baker became Jokey, but rather than gift packages, he was giving away free cream pies that exploded in the receiver's faces. Meanwhile. Handy took Baker's place, but his cooking skills were not really that good as his cake left the eater retching.
An alternate version of the character appears in the comic book story "The Finance Smurf" under the French name of Schtroumpf Patissier, wearing a Smurf hat that flops to the side as well as a white tank top. He became the standard version of the character in all succeeding Smurf comic book stories, which include "Can't Smurf Progress" and "Smurf & Turf".
In "The Disabled Smurfs", Baker breaks his arm and takes advantage of the situation and the need to be served and becomes very demanding of his comrades. Later, he realized his behavior was unacceptable and apologizes to the other Smurfs and helps them with multiple tasks, despite being disabled.
In the Smurfs' Village game, players can use 30 smurfberries to buy his hut at the Planet Swoof district. After placing, it will give out 500xp every 24 hours and unlock the limitation of buying dessert shaped decorations.
In Smurfs: The Lost Village, he appears at the start being interviewed about Smurfette.
