Instagram Reels script ideas for Bakery
For bakeries, home bakers and cake makers on Instagram. Your audience: locals picking up treats, people ordering cakes for events, and baking enthusiasts. Only the first line or two of a caption shows before "more", so the hook has to work on its own.
A 30-second Instagram Reels structure
| 0–3 s · Hook | Say the result or the mistake first, with on-screen text, e.g. "Our sourdough coming out of the oven at 7 AM" |
|---|---|
| 3–8 s · Setup | Why it matters to locals picking up treats, people ordering cakes for events, and baking enthusiasts |
| 8–25 s · Three beats | One point per beat, with a new shot each time |
| 25–30 s · Close | One call to action, and loop back to the hook if you can |
Film in 1080 × 1350 (4:5) for feed posts, 1080 × 1920 (9:16) for Reels. Put the topic in plain words in the caption and on screen, because search reads both.
