Biscuits are confectionery products that contain mostly flour, which you mix and bake with other ingredients as sweet or savory snacks. Biscuit production involves four primary processes: mixing, forming, baking, and cooling. For you to perform these processes, you need basic biscuit processing equipment, including mixers, molders/cutters, and ovens.

Biscuits

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.

“A party without cake is just a meeting.” America's beloved chef, Julia Child, couldn't have been more right. Nowadays, cakes are a blaze of colors and flavors and it's amazing to think that it only takes a few basic ingredients and steps to make them. Mix fat, flour, eggs, sugar, water and salt to make the batter. After baking and cooling it, let your imagination run wild when it comes to toppings, fillings, and decorations.

Cakes

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.

Choosing a dessert is one of the great dilemmas. The decadent creations that satisfy our sweet tooth come in all tastes and consistencies. Fruit-based or dairy-based, baked or frozen, the possibilities are endless. Thankfully, dessert making equipment is less baffling. Ingredients are mixed, heated, formed, cooled, and packaged. But the process is carefully configured according to the parameters of each product.

Dough

Only a few things are as attractive as a gorgeously glazed doughnut. Even when customers are not in the mood, that beautiful sheen will invite them to take a bite. To achieve this appearance, the two doughnut types, cake and yeast doughnuts, can use the help of appropriate doughnut making equipment.

Doughnuts

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.

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.

Frozen cakes

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.

Ready-to-eat meals were once considered a convenience purchase, but new specialty options satisfy the appetite for functional foods and alternative diets. Ready meals combine different processed foods in single portions, so packaging is a critical part of the offering. Aside from shelf visibility, containers must maintain food quality while ensuring responsible disposal. Ready meal preparation today provides more than a quick bite. The foods and packaging are meant to nourish people and planet.

Gummy candy are a very popular confectionery, because they are versatile and appeal to a wide variety of tastes. Another reason for the popularity of this delicious candy is the fact that it’s easy to produce, particularly in small quantities. For medium to large scale production of gummies, there is a multitude of gummy manufacturing equipment to help ensure that you end up with a good product.

Gummies

Licorice is a glossy candy with firm consistency that can have different flavors, like chocolate, cherry and strawberry. With the right licorice making equipment, start by making a paste from the licorice roots, mixing them with sugar, flour and sweeteners. Extrude it with a nuzzle, allowing to cool, then cut and package it.

Long was the time when you could only make dragée chocolate – or, to simplify it, to cover chocolate with a layer of chocolate or sugar and then polish it or not. Now, you can use a chocolate panning machine to offer different types of dragée items. Mind that the process of panning may slightly differ according to the product you are making.

Dragee products

Sweets, candies, ice lolly, confection, lollypop, and even popsicles - lollipops, the hard candies attached to a short stick, go by different names. While choosing your lollipop equipment now is very different from the time of its creation, back in 1908, the opportunities to differentiate the product in the market are wider.

Lollipops

Bonbons are chocolate confectioneries originating from the French royal court in the 17th century. From the French word bon meaning “good”, bonbons are chocolate candies with a filling inside, usually fruits, brittle, nougat, or caramel. Equipment for chocolate bonbons are varied and must be capable of chocolate tempering, molding, scraping, filling, and covering.

Fruit dehydration is the earliest form of food preservation, with the earliest written record of dried fruits dating back to ancient Mesopotamian tablets, which contain the world’s earliest known recipes. Today, some of the most popular dried fruit snacks are raisins, dates, mango, pineapple, prunes, figs and apricots. Dried fruit processing equipment helps preserve the nutrients and sweetness of the fruit and prolongs its shelf life.

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.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

A fresh salad with a walnut oil dressing or a peanut butter sandwich? A bag of roasted cashews or a pack of almond cookies? The common thread among these tasty treats is nut processing equipment. Not all nut ingredients are indeed nuts, botanically speaking. But the machinery that transforms shelled fruits, legumes, and drupes into fried snacks or a paste is similar. As for the food products, there is a nut recipe for every mood and occasion.

Nuts

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.

Aerators are devices used for mixing air (oxygen transfer) with a liquid such as water or oil to form a homogeneous product. Selecting an industrial aeration system involves choosing a suitable mixing head and considering the desired input and output flows, temperature, level of aeration, properties of the liquid phase, and the degree of automation and pressure control. Aerators are used in the food industry for the production of fat-based center masses and crèmes and in the chemical industry for wastewater treatment. When it comes to water treatment, surface aerators are most commonly used.

Depositing equipment is a very common production line process in the food industry. Whether you want to make muffins or jellies or garnish and decorate cakes, all of this is impossible without the depositing step. Depositing is a form of extrusion used primarily to produce pieces of dough that will be further processed to create several food products. The dough is passed through a depositing machine and poured in equal parts from holes in a die plate with nozzles or a conveyor belt. But that’s not all. Depositors are also used to fill, layer, or cover your food items with other ingredients before proceeding to the next step of the production process which is usually packaging.

Depositing

An emulsifier is used to mix two immiscible liquids. Heating or cooling requirements during emulsification, overpressure or vacuum requirements, the need for wall scrapers, design of the mixing head, the viscosity of the liquids, and the desired droplet size are all important considerations when selecting an emulsifying system. Emulsifiers are typically used in the food industry for the production of batters, creams, and sauces, in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry for the production of creams and lotions, and in the chemical industry for the production of paint and other emulsions.
