LONG LIFE BREAD
In TECNOPAN we combine high technology with the most natural raw material and traditional recipes to manufacture our Long Life Bread. The dough is a mixture of flour, salt and water, complemented with different kinds of sugar and other food ingredients. This dough is then fermented with the typical yeast used in bakery, like Saccharomyces cerevisae and Lactobacilus plantarum. Baking is done through an industrial oven. Finally, the bread is wrapped and packed for its transportation.
The ingredients are carefully selected before they enter the process to ensure a higher quality. Special flours, processed fats and purified water are used. Together with a controlled and semiautomatic process using specialized machinery and personnel gives, as a result, a soft crumb bread, with the following characteristics:
Typical golden colour of the crust and cream colour of the crumb
Smell and flavour: fresh and pleasant (characteristical of bakery products)
Smooth and soft crust texture and spongy crumb with a cell structure inside homogeneously distributed.
Although weight and dimension of the bread are standard (65 grs), currently we work with different bag formats. We can manufacture Long Life Bread in bags of one, two and three 65 gr. pieces. Depending on the daily use that our clients want to give to their products. Thus, some of our clients prefer the one piece format, the Spanish Armed Forces use the two piece format and the Turkish Armed Forces use the three piece format.
The main characteristic of the bread is obviously its long shelf life at room temperature with no need of any king of refrigeration or special storage.
LONG LIFE CAKE
The Long Life Cake made by TECNOPAN is a pastry product with a pleasant flavour and with high energetic properties. It is made using a whipped mix of wheat flour, sugar, egg, milk and other natural food ingredients. Its main characteristic is its long shelf life, two years at room temperature always keeping an excellent flavour and texture. Its presentation, flavour and aroma are similar to home made cakes. It is manufactured in 85 gr. pieces and its approximate dimensions are 110 x 65 x 25 mm. Currently, the cake is manufactured in five different flavours, vanilla, orange, strawberry, lemon and chocolate. But it can be manufactured in many other flavours according to our customers needs. The colour of the product is the typical of hand made cake, depending on the flavour of the cake. It has a fresh and spongy texture with small cells distributed homogeneously over the whole piece.
