Starting a bakery business requires a mix of basic kitchen equipment, tools for baking, and some commercial-grade appliances for efficiency. Here's a comprehensive list of what you might need:
1. Commercial Kitchen Appliances:
-
Oven: A commercial convection oven or deck oven is essential for baking various goods in large batches.
-
Mixer: Stand mixers (like a Hobart or KitchenAid) are necessary for mixing dough and batter. Larger commercial mixers are used for high-volume production.
-
Refrigerator/Freezer: A commercial fridge/freezer is required for storing ingredients (like butter, eggs, and perishable fillings) and finished products that need to be kept cold.
Dough sheeter : A dough sheeter is a machine used to flatten dough to a specific thickness by passing it through rollers.
Dough divider : A dough divider is a machine that automatically divides dough into uniform portions, which can then be shaped and baked.
