Flavored flatbread is made by a method comprising providing a cooked flatbread having first and second major surfaces and a thickness of from about 1.0 to about 10 mm and a density of from about 0.1 to about 0.5 g per cubic cm and docking the cooked flatbread to impart a plurality of holes into at least the first major surface of the cooked flatbread. An egg containing liquid mixture is applied to the docked cooked flatbread in an amount and time sufficient to take up from about 0.02 to about 0.09 g per square cm linear surface area of the docked cooked flatbread to provide a coated flatbread. The coated flatbread is cooked to provide a cooked flavored flatbread. Flavored flatbreads are also described.

The invention relates to an icing composition that consists of: 30-75 wt. % of fine carbohydrate particles containing at least 90 wt. % of crystalline carbohydrate, at least 90 wt. % of said fine carbohydrate particles having diameter of less than 50 m; 15-50 wt. % of fat having a melting point of at least 20 C.; 0-30 wt. % water; and 0.1-30 wt. % of other edible ingredients; wherein the fine carbohydrate particles comprise: 50-100 wt. % of mannitol particles containing at least 90 wt. % mannitol; 0-50 wt. % of sugar particles containing at least 90 wt. % of one or more sugars selected from sucrose, glucose, fructose, lactose and maltose. The icing composition enables the preparation of iced bakery products that exhibit high freeze-thaw stability and that can suitably be stored for several days under ambient conditions without becoming stale. The invention further provides a method of preparing a bakery product that comprises applying the aforementioned icing composition onto a fully cooked bakery product as well as an iced bakery product comprising a fully cooked bakery product that is covered with a layer of such an icing composition.
