The Roman quip “bread and circuses” says everything about the ubiquity of loaves through the ages. But although flour, yeast, and water are still the main bread recipe ingredients today, the baking process as well as the bakery equipment available, takes this basic formula to new avenues. From sprouted wheat challah to beetroot ciabatta and protein rolls, breadmaking has changed considerably since the time of the Roman empire.

Let's face it. No one can resist craving pizza for more than a couple of days. And in fact, cosmonaut Yuri Usachov didn't even make it while in orbit and received a pizza delivery through a rocket. Frozen pizza making process involves first creating the dough, allowing it to rise, and cutting it into the typical pizza shapes. After choosing sauces and toppings you prefer, you can let your pizzas cool in a spiral freezer.

Cookies

Croissants have crossed global barriers to become a widely consumed pastry, unique for its rich buttery taste and crispy exterior. Regardless of location, the croissant production process involves creating laminated dough by repeatedly folding and rolling butter into dough. Temperature regulation is crucial to the croissant making process as too warm temperatures negatively affect the overall outcome.

Flour processing technology has changed drastically since the days of the millstone pulled by a mule. But demand for more refined flour means that the production process is now slower than with more rudimentary techniques. When mixed with water, protein in wheat flour form an elastic gluten structure, giving bakery products their irresistible fluffiness.

Flour

Baking powder is perhaps the best-known secret of baking. The leavening agent forms bubbles in dough and batter to give muffins, cakes, and no-yeast pizza their tempting lift. First developed in the 19th century, baking powder production turned baking into the home activity we know today.

A frozen cake can last up to 6 months before the texture begins to change. But if the freezing process isn’t carried out correctly, ingredients start reacting sooner. Cool the cake down in a cooling tunnel before flash freezing them to avoid crystallization. Finally, wrap the products to limit contact with air before loading them into their cartons. Whether sheet or layered, making frozen cakes is no piece of cake.

Bakery production includes foods usually made from flour such as bread, biscuits, and cakes. Depending on the baked good you want to make, flour can be mixed with water or other ingredients producing a paste called dough or batter. The dough is then baked in the oven using dry heat. During baking, heat is transferred from the air to the dough, first on the surface and then in the center. Moisture and liquids escape through evaporation.

A snack is a small portion of food ready to eat and simple and fast to prepare. People usually consume snacks during the day between traditional meals such as breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Snack foods include simple products such as nuts, dried fruits, peanuts as well as packaged and processed foods. Puffed corn products made by extrusion or flavored potato chips are examples of processed foods.

Snacks

During the Middle Ages, sugar sweets were a delicacy only for the rich due to the high cost of sugar. Thankfully, the discovery that sugar could be extracted from sugar beets made sweets affordable for everyone. The sweet category is broad, covering chocolates, chewing gums, sugar candies, and candied/glazed products with sugar. To make these confections, sugar manufacturing equipment needs to cover different steps within the production line such as sugar dissolution, syrup cooking and cooling.

In 1922, the first canned wet pet food made of horse meat hit the US market. Due to the product’s popularity, farmers started breeding horses to supply the demand for wet pet food.
Nowadays, wet pet food is no longer made of horse meat, but of chicken, fish, beef and pork and also vegetables, grains and added vitamins and minerals. Wet pet food processing involves different steps such as weighing, grinding, mixing, packaging, and sterilization.

Wet pet food

Many pet owners consider themselves parents of furry babies, meaning they consider their pets as family rather than companions. Consequently, pet owners are getting more concerned about their pets’ health and actively demanding a healthy diet. To respond to this market demand, there is a rise in raw pet food production, in which ingredients stay in a more natural state refraining from ultra-processing them and avoiding using preservatives and synthetic additives.

Peanut, which (ironically) is a legume, is the make-or-break ingredient of your mixed nuts manufacturing process. “Deluxe” packs tend to avoid them, as their price is much more affordable than other nuts, therefore not being premium. For a regular mix, on the other hand, peanuts can be the major ingredient you’ll include.

Mixed nuts

Peanuts, also known as groundnuts are one of the most popular edible seeds in the world. You can eat them as-is or process them further into on-the-shelf products like peanut butter, oil, snacks, and soups. Depending on what you want to make, some peanut manufacturing processes include roasting, frying, boiling, grinding, pressing, and coating the peanuts.
