A process is described for the production of a packaged shelf-stable sponge-type bakery product. The process includes a) preparation of a first mixture batter containing sugar, flour, oils and/or fats etc.; b) emulsification and dosing of the first batter on a baking surface; c) pre-steaming baking the first batter with the formation of a layer of semi-baked mixture; d) dosing of a filling inside the layer of semi-baked mixture of step c), placed in a baking mold and thus obtaining an open filled semi-finished product; e) preparation of a second mixture batter containing sugar, flour, fats and/or oils etc.; f) emulsification and dosing of the second batter on the open and filled semi-finished product of step d), thus obtaining a covered and filled semi-finished product; g) steam baking the product obtained in step f) to form a baked and filled bakery product; h) cooling; and i) packaging of the baked and filled bakery product.

This invention relates to a pizza product that is prepared separately utilizing two types of doughs that are combined after heating. The doughs have different characteristics and are heated in combination with different ingredients. The heating process for both doughs is performed under different humidity conditions and may be performed simply with a conventional microwave oven. The present invention also includes an apparatus and method for the preparation of such pizzas, as well as an innovative delivery process, which allows delivery of the pizzas from a central delivery station—without the need of having one or more processing locations (e.g., a chain of physical stores) to prepare and/or cook the pizza product.

The present invention belongs to the field of food processing and human nutrition. It particularly relates to a packed dough product comprising ready-to-use, fresh dough pieces; a dough assembly comprising said packed dough product; a method for preparing them and a method for storing them. The packed dough product has a prolonged lifetime, without compromising the organoleptic properties of the dough pieces. The packed dough product is useful for example for preparing home-delivered dough-based foodstuff, particularly pizzas.

Methods for creating flour-based shape-changing food by creating grooves in the surface of a dough layer before exposing the dough to stimuli during dehydration (e.g., baking) or hydration (e.g., boiling) processes. A tailored computational design tool, digital fabrication platform and mold for use with the methods also are provided.

One variation of a multilayer edible food carrier includes a brittle edible layer formed of a first batter comprising: a volume of a base mixture including water, salt, grain flour, fat, and lecithin; a volume of gas dispersed throughout the volume of the base mixture; and a volume of oil absorbed by the first batter within a cook chamber configured to transform the first batter into the brittle edible layer. The multilayer edible food carrier further includes a soft edible layer: nested within the brittle edible layer in an assembled configuration; and formed of a second batter comprising water, a fat blend comprising cheese dissolved in water, an amount of grain flour, an amount of starches, an amount of baking powder, an amount of an emulsifying agent, an amount of dairy milk, an amount of fat, an amount of sweeteners, and an amount of flavoring agents.

Methods for creating semolina flour-based shape-changing food from a multi-layered dough with at least one grooved surface. The dough layers have difference compositions including natural, staple and edible ingredients. The dough is exposed to stimuli during dehydration (e.g., baking) or hydration (e.g., boiling) processes.
