​BAKING INGREDIENTS

​FLOUR

is the most importatnt ingredient which provides structure, thickening and has nutritive value.

Multiple Choice

Which among the following are varities of wheat flour?

​Composition of Wheat Bran

• Hard Outer Covering-it present the whole wheat flour and is high in fiber, B vitamins, fat, protein and minerals

• ​Germ - part of the kernel that becomes a new wheat plant if sprouted. High in protein, vitamins, minerals and fat.

• ​Endosperm - the white, starchy carbohydrate middle layer with some proteins and vitamins

​Sugars

• ​add sweetness and flavor, create tenderness and fineness of texture, qualities and act give crust color, increase keeping qualities and act as a creaming agent with fats, act as foaming agent with eggs and provide food for yeast.

​SYRUP

• ​consist of one or more types of sugar dissolved in water.

• ​simple syrup-dissolved sucrose in water

• ​molasses - concentrated sugarcane syrup

• ​glucose corn syrup - manufactured from cornstarch

• ​honey

• ​malt syrup - extracted from barley

Multiple Choice

Which among the following are the major functions of fats in baked products?

• to tenderize gluten and assist in leavening when used as a creaming agent

• to add moistness and richness and add flavor

• to increase keeping quality and add flakiness

• all of the above

​FATS

• ​Fats shortening - any of a group of solid fats, white and tasteless especialy formulated for baking

• ​high shortenings - devised for use in making cake batters that contain a high ratio of sugar

• ​high liquid shortenings - butter (adds flavor and melts in the mouth),margarine (manufactured from animal and vegetable fats), lard (rendered fat from higs)

​MILK & MILK Products

• ​the water content in milk enables gluten developement

• ​adds texture

• ​adds flavor

• ​provides crust color

• ​provides keeping qualities

• ​provides nutritive value

​EGGS

• ​structure emulsifying fats and liquids leavening shortening action

• ​moisture

• ​flavor

• ​color

• ​nutritive value

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is a composition of an egg?

• Chalazae

• White

• Shell

• All of the above

​LEAVENING

• ​the production or incorporation of gases in baked products to increase volume and to produce shape and texture.

• ​Yeast fermentation is the process by which yeast acts on sugars and changes them into carbon dioxide.

• ​Baking soda - releases carbon dioxide

• ​Baking powder - releases gases with moisture and heat

Fill in the Blank

What are the methods of incorporating air in baking?

​GELLING AGENTS

• gelatin - a water - soluble protein extracted from animal connective tissue

• ​2 forms: powdered or leaf gelatin / sheet gelatin

• ​gelatin is added to hot ingredients or is heated with other ingredients until it dissolves

​SALT & FLAVORINGS

• ​strengthen gluten structure and makes it more stretchable

• ​inhibits yeast growth

• ​Two categories of flavorings: natural and artificial

​ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES

• ​useful flavoring ingredients in pastry shop

• ​sweet alcohols and liquers, non-sweet alcohols and wines

Multiple Choice

Which of the following can be used for bakery products?

• Fruits

• Nuts products

• Chocolate & cocoa

• All of the above

​Other Ingredients

• ​Chocolate are derived from cocoa or cacao beans

• ​Fruits like mango, strawberry, banana, apple as well as nuts can be added or mixed in the batter mixture or used as toppings

BAKERY MATHEMATICS

Step 1: Convert kilos to decimal value: Ex. 1/8 kl x 1 = 0.125

Step 2: Multiply the decimal value to price per kl.

Ex: 0.125 x 57.00 = P 7.13​

​

Note: As for the ingredients not in kilos, just multiply the number of pieces to the price of each.​ Ex: 2 pcs x 7.00 = P 14.00

​Ingredients	Price​	​Amount
​1/4 kl Flour	P ​65.00 / kl	​
1/8 kl White Sugar​	P ​57.00 / kl	​
​2 Eggs	P ​7.00 / each	​
​1/4 kl Baking Powder	P ​36.00 / kl	​
​	​TOTAL	​46.38
