Bakery Trays
Bakery trays, also known as baking trays or sheets, are essential tools in a bakery for efficiently handling, baking, and transporting baked goods. Here are some key technical details:
Materials
- Aluminum: Lightweight, good heat conductivity, and resistant to rust. Commonly used for professional baking trays.
- Stainless Steel: Durable and resistant to corrosion, but typically heavier. Excellent for heavy-duty use.
- Non-stick Coated: Usually aluminum or steel with a non-stick surface, making it easier to remove baked goods.
Design Features
- Rims: Raised edges prevent spillage and can help with handling.
- Pans with Holes: Perforated trays allow for better airflow, ideal for items like baguettes or pastries to achieve crispiness.
- Flat vs. Curved: Some trays are designed to be flat, while others may have a slight curve to facilitate the removal of items.
