An inclusive steaming system for baking dough and method of baking bread enhances the baking of baguettes by providing an elongated baking container is preheatable to high heat prior to receiving dough. A water-capture platform positions in the cavity of baking container, in a parallel, spaced-apart relationship with bottom wall of baking container. The water-capture platform forms a depression that captures melted ice water. When heated, the water-capture platform generates steam in cavity of baking container from melted ice droplets. A perforated baking panel positions in the cavity of baking container, in an elevated relationship from water-capture platform. The baking panel forms a middle ice trough for ice, and a pair of outer dough troughs for receiving elongated dough. As baking container is heated, steam is generated Spacing and perforation in baking panel provides optimal environment for steam circulation around the dough, creating a crunchy outer crust and chewy crumb.

The present disclosure relates to a bread baking mold including a frame, a cover plate provided at the top of the frame, a bottom plate provided at the bottom of the frame, and at least a container provided in the frame. Wherein the cover plate and the bottom plate can opening and/or closing relative to the frame respectively. When it is necessary to produce toasts of various sizes and shapes, it only needs to replace the container, and there is no need to repurchase a complete set of mold, which can effectively reduce the use cost. The container is convenient to be replaced and can be selected according to the amount of raw material to be produced, which can effectively reduce material waste. The cover plate and the bottom plate are detachable after use. There are no dead corners in the cleaning process, which is helpful to keep clean, to ensure sanitation in use, and to reduce storage space.

A pan for breaking bread includes a plurality of baking molds, a plate acting as a cover of the pan, and means to prevent the raising of the plate as the bread is baked inside the molds. The means to prevent the raising of the plate includes a fastening device associated to a structure of the pan. The fastening device includes at least one hook, which is hingedly joined to a shaft of the structure. The hook is susceptible to catching a portion of the plate when it tilts on the shaft.

A first edible layer is placed atop a tray and inside a first annular member, leaving an annular gap around the edible layer. A spreadable material is spread atop and laterally on the first edible layer. A second annular member is stacked upon the first annular member with a second edible layer centered in the second member but with an annular gap between the two. Spreadable material atop and laterally to the second edible layer. The annular members each have an overall transverse dimension greater than its height. These members are part of a reusable kit with the first member has an outwardly projecting pair of handles A tool for shaping spreadable material is shown as a plate with an opposite pair of finishing edges, one being straight, the other undulating. The lower edge of the tool is located between the finishing edges, and has an opposite pair of guide notches. Each of the notches can be pressed against the edge of the tray to regulate the tool's working depth.

It comprises a plurality of baking moulds (2), a plate (3) acting as a cover of said pan (1), and means to prevent the raising of said plate as the bread is baked inside said moulds, and is characterized in that said means to prevent the raising of said plate comprise a fastening device (12) associated to a structure (9, 22) of said pan (1), said fastening device (12) including at least one hook (11) which is hingedly joined to a shaft (23) of said structure (9, 22), said hook (11) being susceptible of catching a portion (3a, 3b) of said plate (3) when it tilts on said shaft (23).

A method and an apparatus for making panigacci. The method comprises the steps of prearranging a plurality of dishes in terracotta; heating the dishes at a temperature higher than 280-300? C. up to make a plurality of hot dishes; arranging a first hot dish in a plane, and distributing a first dose of dough; arranging a second hot dish on the first dish, in order to squeeze the dough between the two dishes, and distributing a second dose of dough on the second dish, and the like with following arranging and distributing, up to end of the plurality of hot dishes, by making a stack of hot dishes interspersed by dough, with subsequent cooking of the dough and preparing panigacci after separating the dishes by the stack. Before the step of arranging a step is provided of exposition of each hot dish at a temperature sensor, and a step of measuring the temperature T of each hot dish with production of a signal of temperature that is provided to a control unit. Furthermore, a step is provided of comparison of the temperature T with limit values T1 and T2 by the control unit, which is configured to provide a consent signal in case that T1<T<T2. The step of distributing is made by a distribution unit that provides to the dish a predetermined dose of dough. The distribution unit being operated through the control unit to provide the dose in the presence of the consent.

A method and apparatus is provided for baking a pocketed bun having a mold base and separable housing. The mold base has a male mold with an outside profile shape that vertically protrudes above the base. The housing has a ring around a central opening that receives and seals to the male mold when assembled, forming a chamber with an open top to receive liquid dough. The housing can either be a single piece or separable into two parts. The method of baking a pocketed bun with the mold base and separable housing starts with assembling the mold base and housing, filling the chamber through the open top, baking the pallet, then removing the housing from the mold base. The removal of the housing causes the ring to strip the pocketed bun from the mold base.

A baking pan, including a plurality of baking subunits, wherein each baking subunit further includes two side portions and two end portions; a strap surrounding the baking subunits, wherein the strap further includes a first portion, wherein the top edge of the first portion is a adapted to cooperate with the top edges of the side portions and end portions of the baking subunits to form connections therewith and a second portion located beneath the first portion, wherein the strap is attached to the exterior of the baking subunits within the second portion; and a plurality of joining members located between the baking subunits, wherein each joining member further includes end portions that are adapted to cooperate with the top edges of the side portions of the baking subunits to form connections therewith.

A first edible layer is placed atop a tray and inside a first annular member, leaving an annular gap around the edible layer. A spreadable material is spread atop and laterally on the first edible layer. A second annular member is stacked upon the first annular member with a second edible layer centered in the second member but with an annular gap between the two. Spreadable material atop and laterally to the second edible layer. The annular members each have an overall transverse dimension greater than its height. These members are part of a reusable kit with the first member has an outwardly projecting pair of handles A tool for shaping spreadable material is shown as a plate with an opposite pair of finishing edges, one being straight, the other undulating. The lower edge of the tool is located between the finishing edges, and has an opposite pair of guide notches. Each of the notches can be pressed against the edge of the tray to regulate the tool's working depth.

The present disclosure describes a bun having a pair of cavities formed therein. The cavities include inner walls which are browned. The cavities form segregated areas which are suitable for receiving separate fillings for making a sandwich. The bun has an insulating wall separating adjacent cavities. The insulating wall may be thicker than the other walls in the bun or may further contain cavities or through-holes to further reduce thermal transfer between any fillings with different temperatures that may be located in the cavities. The browned inner walls in each of the cavities help prevent the bun from getting soggy.
