Technical modernization within the european bakery trade

Objective



The aim of the project is to isolate and develop aspects of significant concern existing in the European Bakery Trade. It is well known, that the production of white bread and pastries is labour- and time-intensive. The development of innovative techniques, such as the frozen storage of pre-prepared dough and interrupted fermentation, will give bakers the choice of either making dough for immediate or future use. State-of-the-art is, that consequential uncoupling is not possible for a period of over 4 to 6 days. The possible applications which would result from developing these techniques open up a variety of aspects for new bakery products. The research will focus on the following areas: - specific process-technology, e.g. enzyme technology, mixing rsp. kneading, fermentation, freezing and baking - changes in work organisation - study of materials and logistics, value analysis of work processes - review of skills and qualifications in the bakery profession The main innovations of the project will be: - widening the range of fresh bakery products available - introducing scientific methods to the baking process - multi-country analysis of professional skills - closing the skills gap in the bakery profession - improving the image of the bakery profession and improving work conditions - upgrading the quality of baked goods - assisting the economic survival of SME bakeries - enhancing storage and logistics - developing special equipment and recipes for SME bakeries - providing training opportunities One of the most significant aspects of the project will be the dissemination of results on a pan-European scale, making its benefits available to all interested parties.
