A pan system is provided having a male mold portion extending from a planar portion to create a pallet. Raw dough is rolled out to a sheet having a uniform thickness, which is then cut into a cut shape. The cut shape is designed to overlay the male mold portion and have overlapping seam areas. Optionally, a vacuum may be drawn through the male mold portion to draw the cut shape against the outer surface of the male mold portion. The overlapping seam areas are compacted and joined with pressure pads. Once the seam areas are joined, the dough is trimmed with a trimming die. The trimmed and seamed dough is then passed through an oven as it overlays the male mold portion to create a continuous baked pocket bun.

A cookie that provides a prebiotic effect and/or a probiotic effect to a consumer is described. The cookie fails to contain refined sugars, synthetic vitamins, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), artificial sweeteners, and artificial preservatives. The cookie comprises at least two baked food compositions formed into a biscuit. Each of the at least two baked food compositions contains a polyphenol, a resistant starch, and a prebiotic soluble fiber. A crème filing is sandwiched between the at least two baked food compositions. The crème filing comprises a resistant starch, a nut butter, a vegetable fat, and spores of a probiotic bacterium. Consumption of the cookie increases Lactobacillus bulgaricus and butyrate in the consumer.

A sandwich making utensil includes a bread support for supporting a sandwich bread and two or more clips for holding the sandwich bread in the open configuration while fillings are added to the sandwich bread. In some embodiments, the bread support may be telescoping, foldable, flat, tub-shaped, or any combination of these.
