Creating the treats people love, with the process control you need
From batter preparation and aeration to depositing, baking, and cooling, our integrated cake solutions give you precise control over every factor that drives volume, texture, and crumb structure. High-precision mixing and depositing systems ensure consistent batter quality and weight accuracy, while optimized oven profiles deliver uniform rise and color across every pan. With intelligent automation, recipe management, and real-time line monitoring, you can switch quickly between products, reduce waste, and maintain high food safety and hygiene standards—so you reliably produce cakes that look and taste exactly as intended, every time.
Discharging and conveying are designed to move batter gently and consistently from the mixer to the depositor or baking line. The batter is discharged in a controlled flow, then pumped or conveyed through specially designed systems that minimize shear and turbulence. This careful handling helps preserve the batter’s aeration and uniformity, ensuring stable volume, even piece weight, and consistent cake quality.
In industrial cake production, mixing and aerating are key to achieving a light, uniform texture. High-capacity mixers blend ingredients while carefully incorporating air, creating fine air cells that expand during baking to give volume and softness. Mixing speed, time, and batter temperature are tightly controlled to prevent defects like dense crumb or low cake volume.
Baking and cooling are precisely controlled to ensure consistent quality and efficiency. Our tunnel or continuous ovens deliver optimized temperature, airflow, and humidity for uniform volume, crumb structure, and color. Carefully controlled cooling prevents condensation, collapse, and surface defects. This integrated approach ensures cakes reach a stable core temperature for reliable slicing, filling, and packaging with maximum shelf life.
