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 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.

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 method of baking bread disclosed herein provides a new super-thin tin bread, technology, and equipment for baking the super-thin bread. The thickness of such bread is roughly equal the thickness of pieces of bread cut off from a loaf of bread. Pieces of such bread have the same crust on all sides except one, and do not crumble. It is simple and quick to cook. Sandwiches prepared from the thin bread contain a minimum amount of bread. Super-thin bread bakes several times faster than a regular loaf of the same weight. This translates into sizeable savings as less electricity, fuel, and labor will be required. Cooling, freezing, defrosting and baking of super-thin bread to perfection will also become faster and more efficient. Super-thin bread can be quickly baked at home in specialized toasters and in mini-bakeries, in automatic lines.

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.

A method and an apparatus for making panigacci. The method includes the steps of prearranging a plurality of dishes in terracotta; heating the dishes at a temperature higher than 280-300° C. 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 an 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.

The present invention relates to the formation of pull-apart multi-portion baked goods composed of multiple portions of dough or thick batter, including, but not limited to, bread dough or muffin batter. Specifically, the invention relates to a pull-apart multi-portion baked good developed by arranging the multiple portions of dough or batter such that the baking process creates minimal connections linking said portions and thus obtains better consistency among each portion of the baked good than traditional arrangements. As one non-limiting example, the invention relates to an arrangement of portions that, once baked, form a substantially central connection that links each of said portions to one another. The invention further relates to baking molds that enables the formation of said consistent pull-apart multi-portion baked goods. Additionally, the invention includes methods of making said pull-apart multi-portion baked goods and said baking mold.

A dough piece mold is configured to receive at least one dough piece during a fermentation and baking process. The dough piece mold has at least one machine readable identification label with a ceramic-based carrier, containing identification data, which include mold type data and unambiguous individualization data for the respective dough piece mold. A dough processing installation can be used to perform a dough processing method using a plurality of such dough piece molds.
