In addition to scaling raw ingredients, bakers must also use
precise quantities of dough, cake batter and other components that are combined to produce a finished baked product.
Recognized for the rich quality of its hamburger buns, Regina
Bakery carefully divides and scales prepared dough into equal
weighing pieces to ensure uniformity across its products. The
same precision is employed when making cake layers to be
used in Regina Bakery's custom cake designs. Davis weighs the
cake pans as they are filled with batter to be sure each filled
pan is of equal weight. A minor difference in the weight of the
batter used for each layer can result in an uneven cake, causing
a bakery to lose valuable time.
