You are in the bakery section of your local grocery store, you have a list of ingredients to buy for your bakery. What do you need? Can’t remember what it is called? It can be incredibly frustrating trying to find bakery ingredients when they are all labeled differently.
That’s why we’ve compiled this guide on bakery ingredients that will help make your shopping experience much simpler. This article includes information about different types of flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and more.
Types of flour:
- All purpose flour
- Cake Flour
- Bread Flour
Types of sugar:
- Brown Sugar (light and dark)
Types of bakery ingredients:
- Baking powder/soda
- Salt (table salt and sea salt)
- Flaked coconut flakes, shredded coconut flakes or flaked almonds for garnishing bakery items like cakes.
- Sugar pearls to decorate bakery cupcakes with a sugar decoration. These come in different colors too! Try pink or yellow pearl sugars on vanilla cupcakes to make them festive for Valentine’s Day or sprinkle white pearl sugar on your Christmas tree-shaped cookies at Christmas time.
You can also use sprinkles instead of pearl sugars if you want something that looks less fancy but still gives the same effect. It is up to you. Don’t forget to substitute milk chocolate chips with dark chocolate ones if you want to make bakery items more festive for Christmas!
- Egg wash is made with egg yolks and water. It gives bakery products like bread a nice golden color as it cooks in the oven. You can also brush bakery products such as scones or popovers with an egg white mixture before baking them to get that same shiny effect–just use one whole egg, lightly beaten whites from another and then add enough milk (or cream) to thin out the mixture to brushing consistency.
Oils – vegetable oil is ideal due through your bakery ingredients list if you are making muffins or cupcakes at home since these recipes require less butter than cakes do.
