Bakery Processing

Bread, cookies, muffins, scones, cakes, pastries, pies – whatever delicious baked treat you make, we can help keep them safe.

A bakery may produce everyday staples, innovative products that encourage impulse purchases, or a combination of both. Whatever your focus, maintaining safe, high-quality products remains a top priority for your business.

Vegan and gluten-free bakery options have been among the most successful product launches in recent years. When these products are produced alongside traditional baked goods, strict ingredient control may be required to minimise the risk of cross-contamination and ensure compliance with legal and labelling requirements.

Pressure to provide “healthier” options by reducing levels of salt, fat, sugar, and preservatives in many food products, including baked goods, has created additional food safety and quality challenges. This is due to the removal of these traditional food safety and spoilage “hurdles”.

The impact of these challenges can be significantly reduced by maintaining high levels of environmental and equipment hygiene. Vikan’s tools and experts are here to help.

Vikan Insights – Bakery Processing

Suggested Products for Bakery

The bakery sector requires strict adherence to sanitation rules and regulations. Tools from Vikan are made out of tough, compliant materials such as polypropylene and stainless steel. Unlike foamed plastic or wooden tools, our high-quality products have smooth surfaces for easy clean-up and better hygiene.

Our tools are hygienically designed, which makes them easier to clean and less likely to harbor bacteria.

Vikan tools come in up to 12 colors, making them ideal for integration with color-coded plans. Color-coding helps prevent cross-contamination between raw and finished products, as well as keeping allergens separated.

Regardless of your operation’s size and complexity, Vikan has the tools and expertise to help you execute your color-coding plans.
