much like glassblowing; as air is being pumped, the sugar is sculpted into
the desired shape and rotated to keep it from becoming misshapen. Fans are
used to cool the blown sugar in order to avoid cracking.
Brioche

OVENS

Ovens are the workhorses of the bakery and pastry shop and are essential
for producing the bakery products. Ovens are enclosed spaces in which food
is heated, usually by hot air.

Several Kinds of Ovens are used in Baking.

A. DECK OVENS are so called because the items to be baked either on


sheet pans or in the case of some bread freestanding are placed
directly on the bottom, or deck of oven. This is also called STACK
OVEN because several may be stacked on top of one another. Breads
are baked directly on the floor of the oven and not in pans. Deck oven
for baking bread are equipped with steam ejector.

1. RACK OVEN is a large oven into which entire racks full of sheet pans
can be wheeled for baking.
2. MECHANICAL OVEN The food is in motion while it bakes in this type
of oven. The most common types are a revolving oven, in which his
mechanism is like that of a Ferris wheel. The mechanical action
eliminates the problem of hot spots or uneven baking because the
mechanism rotates throughout the oven. Because of its size it is
especially used in high volume operations. It can also be equipped
with steam ejector.

3. CONVECTION OVEN contains fans that circulate the air and


distribute the heat rapidly throughout the interior. Strong forced air
can distort the shape of the products made with batter and soft
dough.

INFORMATION SHEET 2.1-3
Mixing Procedures/Formulation/Recipes and Desired Product
Characteristics

Learning Objectives:

After reading this Information Sheet you should be able to:

 Perform standard procedures in pastry products.

Basic Cake Mixing Methods

Creaming Method
This is the most common of the methods. The creaming method
alternately adds the dry and liquid ingredients to the fat mixture. This
ensures all the liquid will be absorbed into the batter as if there is a high
amount of butter or shortening, the liquid has a natural tendency to
separate and the flour will help bind it into the batter.
Example recipe is Butter cake
Two-Stage Method This method is great for cakes with a large
amount of sugar and the resulting batter is generally thinner than other
types. The dry ingredients are mixed with the fat, and then the liquid is
added in parts. Low speed is always used in the procedure, and frequent
scraping is necessary.
Example recipe is Yellow cake

Flour-Batter Method
This produces a finely grained cake. The flour and fat ingredients are
mixed until smooth, and the sugar and eggs are whipped together. Then the
two different mixtures are incorporated, and the liquid is added at the end.
Example recipe is Chocolate cake
Sponge Method
Sponge cakes use egg yolks and or whole eggs that are whipped with
sugar until very thick foam is created. Heating the eggs or yolks with
the sugar will result in greater volume. A typical genoise cake will use
this method, and the egg foams are the typically the only leavening.
Example recipe is sponge cake

Angel Food Cake Method


As the name implies, this is the method for creating angel food cakes.
These cakes use no fat, and are leavened with whipped egg whites.
Example recipe is pineapple angel cake
Chiffon Method
Chiffon-style cakes can use egg white foam, but are not fat-free, and
some recipes call for additional eggs or yolks inside the batter.
Additional melted butter or a vegetable oil is added to the mix for
richness, and the leavening isn't solely relied upon by the egg foams;
they do contain chemical leavenings such as baking powder.
Example recipe is Orange chiffon cake
SELF-CHECK 2.1-3
TRUE or FALSE

Instruction: Read the questions carefully and analysed the underlined


word/s. Write T if the statement is true and F if it is false.

________ 1. Flour batter method produces a finely grained cake. The flour
and fat ingredients are mixed until smooth, and the sugar and eggs are
whipped together.

_________4. Two-Stage Method this method is great for cakes with a large

Storing Pastry
Products

Procedures in Storing Pastry Products:


In order to provide our customers with consistent high quality pastry
products procedures for handling, storing, and disposing of bakery items
should be followed at all times. Since bakery products vary there are
different instructions for each type of item. Pastry product should be ordered
so that there is enough to last the day with minimal leftover at the end of the
night even if the product can be used a second day.

Note: All products that are kept overnight should be closely inspected and
tested prior to being used. It is ultimately the supervisor’s responsibility to
make sure that the product has held up overnight and meet the storing
standard of pastry products. If there is any question the product should be
discarded.

Cookies and Brownies:

1. All bar cookies & brownies should be cut as needed to keep them from
drying out prematurely.
2. Bar Cookies & Brownies can be sold day old if they are wrapped tightly
with plastic wrap or covered with a bun pan cover. Bar Cookies should be
stored in the refrigerator overnight. Brownies should be stored at room
temperature.

Pastry Product Handling Procedures

Cakes & Pies (including cake balls, cupcakes, and pie pockets):
1. Cakes should be cut as needed to keep them from drying out. A piece of
parchment paper, or plastic wrap should be placed on the inside of the cut
after a slice of cake has been removed to prevent drying out.
2. Cakes & Pies may be sold day old if they are stored in the refrigerator
overnight. They should not be covered because the plastic wrap will make a
mess of the top. Exposed areas where slices have been removed should be
covered with parchment paper, or plastic wrap.
Note:
Cheesecake and all pies should also be stored in the refrigerator during the
day.
Cookies:
1. Cookies should be displayed so that there is minimal risk of them
breaking. Frosted Sugar Cookies and
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies should never be stacked.
2. Cookies may be sold day old provided that they are stored overnight at
room temperature and wrapped
tightly with plastic wrap or covered with a bun pan cover.

Croissants, Danishes, Puff Pastry, and Sweet Rolls

1. All Croissants, Danishes, Puff Pastry, and Sweet Rolls should be


displayed so that the filling/topping does not get smashed. Savory and
Sweet Danishes should be separated.
2. Croissants, Danishes, Puff Pastry, and Sweet Rolls are not to be sold day
old.
 The exception to this is that Croissants may be used day old for
sandwiches.
Muffins:
1. Muffins should be displayed so that the tops and sides do not get
smashed together.
2. Muffins are not to be sold day old.

S tori n g P astry P rodu cts


Once our cookies, cakes, pies and tarts etc. are baked, they have to be
stored properly and there is no one catch-all perfect storage solution, so we
must pay attention to what a recipe calls for. Proper storage will allow you to
enjoy your pastry goods and desserts at their best.
Generally speaking, refrigeration will dry out many baked goods. For
simple quick breads, snack cakes, cookies and plain cakes, airtight
containers at room temperature or wrapping the item in plastic wrap are the
best solutions. If you have a dessert that involves a lot of dairy, such as
cheesecake, mousses or desserts with whipped cream – like a trifle – then
you must refrigerate. Also, some recipes that require refrigeration are best
served very cold right out of the refrigerator, but others are best stored
chilled but served at room temperature. It’s all about texture and flavor. A
layer cake filled and frosted with Meringue Buttercream must be
refrigerated, however, if served cold, the texture will be hard, unappealing
and even strong flavors, like chocolate buttercream, will have little taste.
These desserts should be chilled for storage, but brought to true room
temperature for serving. In the case of the chocolate buttercream, it might
take hours for the frosting to truly soften, come to room temperature, and be
able to be enjoyed in its creamy lusciousness.
Length of storage is important as well. Some cookies can last a few
weeks, others a day or two. For instance, a gelatin dessert lasts 2 days. It
will still be edible at 4 days; however, the gelatin will be more rubbery if you
do not store correctly, including length of storage and your desserts will not
be at their best.
Store pastry goods individually and protected. Once our cookies,
cakes, pies and tarts etc. are baked, they have to be stored properly
If a recipe says “serve immediately once assembled, they should be
brought to the table right away.”
