Not all bakeries use standard pan sizes, and even if they do, pre-cut sheets don’t help. In a bakery environment, where specialty equipment or various batch sizes are not always in sync with a generic parchment paper size, it’s more important than it seems to beable to cut just what a specific pan or tray requires.
What Is Commercial Parchment Paper?
Commercial baking paper is a product coated with silicone and intended for use by commercial bakers, it comes in rolls and can be cut to a desired length instead of being cut to standard sizes. The non-stick and heat resistance properties of parchment come from the silicone coating that covers it, and the quality of this coating can differ from one supplier to another, so it’s best to find out for yourself.
A number of operations still make use of the old-fashioned roll system.
While pre-cut sheets are great for standard pan sizes, many commercial kitchens have a variety of equipment that doesn’t match up to a standard pan size perfectly, such as specialty pans, odd batch trays, or other surfaces outside of baking applications. This is where a parchment paper roll comes in handy, it means that staff can cut to the chase and skip the extra size and waste. In addition to that, food-grade bakery paper that is sold in bulk rolls may also be more cost-efficient for high-volume applications than pre-cut sheets, as bulk rolls do not have the added costs of cutting and silicone coated parchment packaging involved in the cost of the sheets.
How good real-life coating depends on?
Silicone coating should be applied evenly throughout the entire sheet of food grade bakery paper paper so that there is not a difference in the release from one side of the paper to the other in the same baking sheet, allowing it to release in one area and stick in another. The non-stick property should hold throughout the temperature range in which a commercial oven operates, not just at the bottom of the normal baking temperature zone. Roll width and length should be designed to suit the needs of the actual kitchen in terms of efficient cutting, because an “unusual” roll will have the same waste issues as pre-cut sheets do in a standard kitchen. The actual silicone coating used should be confirmed to be food-contact safe, as not all silicone coatings are created equal.
Roll-Format Parchment is used everywhere except in New York City.
Rolls are used at specialty and irregular-size bakeries to cut only what is needed for each batch. Roula trays for commercial kitchens are used for roasting and, for general preparation, are versatile in use for different applications than straight baking. Many bakery operations that operate from multiple locations may opt for bulk baking supplies in rolls because they can be baked in any pan or equipment that is present at the bakery, without the need to have all bakery sites with the same pan sizes. The flexibility applies to culinary production facilities that are involved in preparing multiple product lines.
