INFORMATION SHEET No. 1.3-1
PROPER STORAGE OF BAKERY PRODUCTS
Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet you should be able to;
1. Apply proper bread storage
After performing all the activities of the previous LO, Decorate and
Present Bakery Products, the next activity that would come into our mind is
storing our baked products. Several factors contribute in storing bakery
products to lengthen its shelf life.
HOW TO STORE BREAD
Make sure that the bread has totally cooled down before putting in different
packaging materials. Moisture from not fully cooled bread might cause
molds as time progress.
You can help keep freshly baked bakery bread fresh by storing it in a paper
bag. Paper bags are better than plastic bags because the paper allows the
bread to breath and keep from moisture build up and mold - but it will dry
out way faster. The open paper bag allows room temperature air to circulate,
keeping the bread crusty — in a good way — for about 2 – 3 days. This crust
then helps keep the insides of the loaf moist. Using paper bags can also help
absorb any extra grease from the breads.
Sliced bread is best stored in the plastic bag that it comes in to keep it fresh.
Make sure that it is tied closed by the excess plastic it came from, or a wire
tie.

_____
Bread can also be stored in the fridge, but it is not recommended because it
dries out much faster and will cause stalling to the products.
CAN I FREEZE BREADS?
Freezing is a better long-term option, you can freeze your bread while
preserving its taste and texture if you use an air-tight freezer safe container
or have it cling wrapped. Foods freeze indefinitely, but the quality declines
after a long time. Use within the recommended time (6 months) for the best
flavor and texture. When freezing be sure to label with the date of freezing
and use the FIFO (First In, First Out) rule. Best used for labeling are
masking tapes and sharpies.
Suggested storage temperatures for storing breads are 25oC (77oF) which is
the temperature considered as room temperature, or -18oC (-0.4oF) for
freezing the bakery products. Avoid temperatures around 4 oC (39.2oF)
because mold will grow best in damp, dark and cool conditions, but can also
grow in warmer temperatures as well. Mold grows best between 55 to 70 oC.

_____
Some benefits of proper food storage include eating healthier, cutting food
costs and helping the environment by avoiding waste.
For products with fillings, products with cream filling will need to be kept
chilled. These crème patissiers can stand at room temperature for the day
but must then be discarded and not used. Fillings with dairy and eggs have
shorter shelf life and must be stored in a temperature sensitive place.

INFORMATION SHEET No. 1.3-2
SHELF LIFE OF BAKERY PRODUCTS
Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet you should be able to;
1. Determine shelf life of bakery products
2. Analyze if the baked product is suitable for consumption or not
After storing our bakery products, we need to determine the shelf life
of our products, or the life span before it would go stale, that would lead us
as we pursue further thru this learning outcome.
HOW TO TELL IF THE BREAD IS BAD, ROTTEN, OR SPOILED?
Practicing proper hygiene and food safety techniques will help prevent
foodborne illness.
Although not a perfect test, your senses are usually the most reliable
instruments to tell if your product has gone bad. One trait of bad bread is
being stale.
Stalling is the decrease in the palatability of baked goods that does not
include microbial contamination. It is a change in both chemical and
physical attributes that give bread products a hard, dry, and leathery
texture.
A common misconception is that bread goes stale from a simple loss of
moisture. In fact, it can happen without appreciable loss of moisture.
However, loss of moisture from the loaf may accelerate reactions leading to
it.
Bread and cake are the primary products that go stale, because cookies and
crackers start with a lower moisture content, or higher fat content, that does
not stale as quickly. If bread does become stale, it is possible to partially
reverse the effects by toasting the bread.

_____
A few examples of what you can do to stale breads are bread crumbs and
croutons. The bread should then be eaten immediately afterwards due to the
increased loss of moisture resulting in a firmer crumb afterward. If they are
kept dry, they can enjoy a long shelf life because mold needs moisture to
grow.
In addition, freezing bread to very low temperatures can stop the staling
process. Bakers have several uses for stale bread such as bread pudding,
French toast and croutons.
Another trait of a bad bread is mold (amag), which can often be smelled
before it is seen.
Bread mold can come in all sorts of colors, even white which needs a close
look to differentiate from flour.
Mold needs four things in order to grow: water, food, suitable air quality and
temperature. Food that contains any kind of water or fluid is susceptible to
mold growth. In addition, mold can only grow if it has food readily available
to feed itself and grow. Mold is a fungus that feeds off of dead or dying
organic matter, and can be destructive to your health and food quality. Mold
will grow best in damp, dark and cool conditions, but can also grow in
warmer temperatures as well. Mold grows best between 55 to 70 degrees
Celsius.

_____
Mold can be very dangerous if eaten. Mold is perhaps most common on
bread, cheese, and fruits and vegetables left out in the kitchen. Eating mold
on any item has the potential to make you very sick. Simply cutting off the
moldy part does not render the food safe to eat. Mold has the ability to
penetrate deep into the food and not just fester on the surface. If you do
spot mold on your food, it is best to inspect the entire serving and not just
one spot. In addition, if the food you are eating is part of a package of
multiple servings, you should check all of them – mold can spread very
quickly and infest an entire package of food.
HOW LONG DOES BREAD LAST?
Since preservatives play a large part in the answer to how long bread lasts,
it ranges from 2-3 days if stored properly in room temperature, to several
weeks or more. The shelf life of bread depends on a variety of factors, such
as the best by date, the preparation method and how it was stored.
Bread is basically made of flour, water and yeast. Because of its relatively
low cost and high calorie density, bread is one of the most popular food
staples in the world. It is so versatile that it can be prepared and sold in
varieties of any shape or size.
All foods last for a shorter period of time if they are not stored properly.
Remember that bread, like a lot of other grains, usually has a best by date
and not an expiration date. Because of this distinction, you may safely use
breads to compliment your favorite meals even after the best before date has
lapsed.

INFORMATION SHEET No. 1.3-3
PACKAGE AND PRESENT BAKERY PRODUCTS
Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet you should be able to;
1. Determine available and suitable packaging for the bakery product
PACKAGING MATERIALS
Aside from the previously mentioned materials for storing bakery
products, boxes and other packaging materials are available for our bakery
products. These can add to the presentation of the product and can possible
add shelf life during storage.
In handling finished products for packaging, it is encouraged to used vinyl,
powderless rubber gloves for safety and hygiene. This helps in keeping the
product clean and free from any microbial organism that may contaminate
the product. Wearing gloves can be skipped if, and only, your bare hands
are clean, dry, and sanitized.
Most commonly used in packaging bakery products, especially breads, is the
food grade cling wrap which can seal the freshness of the product. This
cling wrap can also keep the shape of the product with due care. Cling
wraps can stretch and tightly hug the product like second skin. Be careful
in purchasing cling wraps as there are varieties in which are not suitable for
food and mainly used for packaging other non-food.

Cello sheets, on the other hand, are plastic wrappers that are not
stretchable like cling wraps. This packaging can come in various designs
and colors, but usually available as plain and clear. Adhesive, or scotch
tapes are needed to seal the edges of this wrapper to keep it from opening
up and assuming previous shape.
Paper and plastic bags are two of the most common packaging used for
breads. These are present in every industrial or small scale bakery in our
communities. Often used in neighborhood bakeries because they keep the
breads warm and less greasy, paper bags are also cost efficient and
biodegradable. As mentioned in the previous topic, The open paper bag
allows room temperature air to circulate, keeping the bread crusty — in a
good way — for about 2 – 3 days. This crust then helps keep the insides of
the loaf moist. Plastic bags, on the other hand, are used for bakery products
to provide a preview of what you are actually buying. This is also essential
for consumers to see the actual product. Plastic bags are best for sandwich
breads or softer style loaves. This is ideal since those loaves typically take
longer to consume anyway. To seal the freshness of the bakery products,
both of these packaging materials uses twist tie or tapes.

Boxes. Boxing bakery products is another practice used to keep it in shape
and if has to be stacked together. This prevents the bakery products from
being squished from the weight of the products piled on top of another.
Using a box is also a great way to customize the presentation of the product
by using stickers, logo, or even ribbons to make the bread more appealing to
the eye. Most boxes are made of thick paper, and helps in preventing hot
products from turning cold. A perfect example for this is Pizza. Another kind
of box used for bakery products are clear plastic boxes for aesthetic
purposes as well. These clear boxes are often used to showcase the products
inside, especially ones with designs or toppings.

Disposable Aluminum Pans/Trays. The best choice for baked goods
consistent in color and texture. It prevents quick bread, loaves, and
coffeecakes from becoming too dark on the bottom and around the sides of
the pan. Using these aluminum trays can also lessen the work in the
kitchen because you can directly bake on it, and use it as packaging
afterwards.
Paper trays. Same as the disposable aluminum pans/trays, these paper
trays can be used to bake right in the pan, then give it away. These paper
trays are usually heavy coated non-stick paper, is food-safe and makes for
easy transport of baked goods. Paper trays are perfect for baking homemade
gifts of fruitcake, quick breads, pound cakes, and yeasted bread. Be sure to
bake on a baking sheet. They are easy to dress up for gifting, and
convenient for packaging up other small baked goods like cookies. Also ideal
for sharing or serving baked goods to a crowd, since they're prettier than

If, and by any case, the packaging was torn off during packaging, carefully
remove the initial packaging and replace it with a new one. Cling wraps can
also be used to seal the torn area, keeping the freshness of the product by
changing the presentation by a bit.
Labels. Labels are important in packaging of bakery products not only for
marketing but also for health concerns. The consumer might be allergic to
some ingredients that are not visible to the naked eye and might cause
problems. In making labels for the products, it is best to consider the
following:
1. Lettering. Lettering must be legible, clear enough to read.
2. Bread Type. The name of the bread must correctly describe the
bread.
3. Bakery Name/Address. The label should display the name and/or
street address of the bakery, or someone who sells the bread
4. Date. Packaged bread must be marked with either:
a. Best-before date: means that a properly sealed package of
food, which has been stored correctly, should be of high
quality until the marked date. It must also keep any specific
qualities claimed for it until that date. The best-before date
must be shown as numbers in MM/DD/YYYY.
Ex. BB: 05/30/2019
b. Baked-on date: means the date on which the bread was
baked or manufactured. A baked-on date must use either the
words ‘Baked On’ or ‘MFD’, with the date next to it.
Ex. MFD: 05/26/2019
5. Storage Directions. Storage directions must show how to maintain
the product to prolong or maximize its shelf life.
6. Allergy Warnings. Examples of allergens are wheat, soy, gluten,
sesame, nuts and bee products. The allergens must be included in
the ingredient list, usually bold. A disclaimer must be present and
visible to avoid accidents and other health concerns. Ex. This
product contains nuts.
