How to equip a mini-workshop for the production of cookies?

Cookies are now the most popular among all confectionery products produced in the country. For one year, each resident of Russia consumes about nine kilograms of this product. In this regard, it is now so profitable to engage in the production of these confectionery products.

How to open a biscuit production shop: choose equipment

In order to open a mini shop for the production of cookies, you must:

• Find a suitable room and equip it with all the necessary equipment.
• First of all, you should take care of purchasing a dough kneading machine. There are many varieties of dough mixers, which differ from each other in a number of criteria, primarily by purpose.

Some of them are suitable for creating yeast dough, others for non-yeast dough, others for shortbread, and fourth for steep dough. However, there are also universal units equipped with Z-shaped blades and capable of making several types of dough, depending on which program was given to them.

The material for the manufacture of the machine is also important, it is desirable that it be stainless steel. You also need to pay attention to whether the device is equipped with a jacket or not.

Due to the presence of this structural element, it becomes possible to heat or cool the raw material, if necessary. Naturally, when choosing one or another instance, it is necessary to build on what type of product is supposed to be produced.

• Forming products can be done manually, however, you can save the labor intensity of work by purchasing a rotary molding machine, which is produced in abundance by both domestic and foreign manufacturers.
• An oven is also absolutely necessary for the production of biscuits. It can be either convection or rotary. The first option is characterized by small volumes, and therefore is great for equipping a small biscuit workshop founded by a novice entrepreneur with it.

How to choose a cookie factory oven

The choice of ovens for a mini-biscuit production workshop is now quite extensive, so how to choose the right model?

First, you should pay attention to the time required for warming up. Naturally, the smaller it is, the better for production.

Secondly, the unit must be equipped with a sufficiently good turntable, which is necessary in order for the products to bake as evenly as possible.
The third indicator that you need to pay attention to is the presence of a hermetically sealed door equipped with a heat-resistant seal.

It is a great advantage for the stove if it has an internal lighting function.

Additional equipment for making cookies

A device for applying glaze can act as an auxiliary equipment, if its presence is provided for by the cookie production technology. By the way, you can expand the range by producing products not only with chocolate, but also with a colored surface. It is important to remember that the mixture must first be subjected to heat treatment, heating to forty degrees Celsius, because, only in this case, it will acquire the desired consistency.

In molten form, it is applied to the workpiece, and then sent to cool in a specialized refrigeration unit, where solidification occurs.

You can also increase the attractiveness of a product for consumers by sprinkling it with nuts, confectionery sprinkles, or connecting the two halves with cream or jam.

For these purposes, you can use specialized devices called syringe bags.

The production of some types of cookies is completely unacceptable if the company does not have a professional mixer. It differs from household in speed of work and productivity.
