Probably not. :-) Towns  during the middle ages frequently , if not
exclusively, outlawed cooking at home any way. You usually bought your dough
at one place and then took it to the baker for baking. The same pattern was
repeated for other foods. "Life ion a Medieval Village"  talks somewhat on
this subject for a starting place.

Bread-making and cooking were conducted "on-premises" in the manner houses and
castles though. So given that the SCA persona is techniquely considered as
being of "noble" birth, there would would no problem with baking your own
bread. :-)
