Abstract
In a first embodiment, the present invention provides an improved finishing process for dry mixes for baked goods of widely varying compositions. According to this embodiment, a standard cake finisher is replaced with a disc mill, which yields surprisingly superior dry mix properties. In another embodiment of the invention having particular utility in dry mixes for brownies and the like, a dry, particulate pre-mix is formed by mixing the shortening with a selected portion of the dry ingredients of the dry mix. It is preferred that no more than approximately 25% of the total flour content of the dry mix be added in this pre-mix. This pre-mix is then mixed with the rest of the ingredients of the dry mix and this final dry mix may subjected to a finishing operation such as that of the first embodiment of the invention.
