Food orders are divided into components or tasks. Systems and methods of food order preparation communicate instructions for automated actions to devices to carry out the automated actions. A toaster operates to toast a bun according to toaster settings. A bun magazine operates to deliver a bun into the toaster. A condiment dispenser receives the bun from the toaster and operates to dispense at least one portion of at least one condiment onto the bun.

Embodiments herein relate to a food preparation device and a bread mold. The food preparation device includes a bottom unit for accommodating a first piece of bread and a top unit for accommodating a second piece of bread. The bottom and the top units each have a flat edge extending outwardly the circumference of the bottom unit respectively the circumference of the top unit. The flat edge of the first piece of bread and the flat edge of the second piece of bread are provided with an edible and organic adhesive layer, for enabling the sealing together of the two pieces of bread along the flat edges when moving the tope unit from the open position to a closing position, thereby avoiding leakage before consumption.

The disclosure concerns a method for producing a layered cookie comprising at least one biscuit and a filling, the layered cookie containing 10 wt % to 25 wt % fat and 15 wt % to 40 wt % sugar, wherein the slowly-digestible-starch-over-total-available-starch ratio of the layered cookie is at least 31 wt %, the method including: forming a dough comprising a cereal flour, fat, sugar and at most 8 wt % added water relative to the total weight of the dough; molding the dough into the shape of a biscuit; baking the biscuit; and assembling the biscuit with a filling to form a layered cookie; wherein the cereal flour comprises refined cereal flour, in an amount of at least 21 wt % over the total weight of the dough, with a water absorption under 55% as measured by Brabender Farinograph.

A pan is provided that has a male mold portion, a housing that surrounds the male mold portion, and a top portion with a wing plate that has a complimentary outer surface to the end surface of the male mold portion. The complimentary outer surface forms a more consistent thickness of a baked item. The housing has a bottom surface with an aperture in the bottom to receive the male mold portion. The bottom surface acts to eject the baked item from the pan as the male mold portion is removed from the pan. The top portion can be formed with a continuous surface or have a wing plate that is spaced from a planar portion.

The present invention discloses a microwaveable frozen bakery that has a more appealing color, fresher aroma and a softer inner texture compared to products of prior art when prepared using a microwave oven for final cooking before consumption. The product has a sealed golden brown colored skin with a baked appearance but without the large amounts of moisture loss during preparation compared to its baked product counterpart, rendering a higher moisture preservation in the bakery. When microwave cooked, the high moisture crumb and sealed skin compensate or prevent moisture loss and produces a softer bread texture. Method of preparation comprises mixing a dough composed of flour, water, yeast and other additives, portioning and making up the dough, fermenting, proofing, steaming, and quickly baking the dough at high heat oven, where a sealed golden brown colored skin and a high moisture crumb are developed, and freezing the bakery.
