Abstract

Brown and serve products are produced by a microwave process in substantially less time than the current conventional production time. These products are baked directly in the sales carton which eliminates most handling and transfer. In addition, the shelf life of brown and serve rolls is increased by microwave baking in the sales carton and immediately overwrapping while hot with a shrink film overwrap. The process of microwave proofing of brown and serve rolls also reduces the overall processing time.
