BISCUIT PRODUCTION UNIT (CAP: 35 TONS/DAY)

[EIRI/EDPR/4648] 

Baking industry is the most stable sector in the food manufacturing industries. The principal basis for most products in this range is wheat flour. Addition of water and various other ingredients give us variety of products like cookies, crackers, cakes, pastries and biscuits. Biscuits are flat, crisp, baked good, whereas cookies are softer and thicker. Cracker means biscuits of a low sugar and fat content, frequently bland or savory.

Biscuit is a low moisture bakery product. Moisture content of biscuit is typically below 4% depending upon its weight, thickness and shape. Biscuit dough can be made from soft wheat flour with a high amount of sugar (25-55%) and shortening (20-60%). They are classified based on the way the dough is placed on the baking band e.g. rotary molded, wire-cut, cutting machine, etc.

The same Biscuit is made up from the word 'BIS' which means twice and 'Cut' means Balled suggesting that product should be twice balled. The Biscuit were originally developed to meet the requirement of longer life of the barley products and for this, purpose, the dough were made up and twice balled to make them moisture free to improve their keeping qualities. The Biscuit manufacturing was started a century ago mainly to meet the requirement of European Travellers. The industry was located near the sea port but today we have a large number of factories situated in various parts of the country. Producing best quality biscuits equivalent to international standards.
