Abstract
Abstract A liquid composition for use as a pan-release agent in bakeries and a method of preparing such composition and de-panning baked goods which comprises spraying onto a pan in which dough is to be baked a liquid composition comprising a liquid emulsifier containing monoglycerides, diglycerides, and polysorbate, and a major portion of water. Lecithin may also be added to the liquid composition, as well as certain preservatives. The present invention enables bakery products, particularly yeast-raised bakery products, to be easily released from the pans at the conclusion of the baking process and minimizes the build-up of carbon residue on the surfaces of the baking pans. The liquid composition does not affect the color of the baked dough and has a viscosity suitable for spraying through hydraulic or air pressure spray equipment. The liquid composition disclosed in the present invention can also be used to adhere a topping material, such as sesame seeds, onto yeast-raised bakery products without interfering with the release of the baked goods from the baking pans or adding to a build-up of carbon residue.

Independent Claim
148 words
A method of de-panning a baked good from a pan in which it was baked which comprises spraying a liquid composition onto the pan before the good to be baked is placed in the pan or before said good is fully proofed, said liquid composition comprising an effective amount to effect de-panning of a liquid emulsifier containing from about 4 to about 9 percent monoglycerides and diglycerides derived from animal fats and/or vegetable oils based on the total weight of the liquid composition and from about 2 to about 7 percent of an ethoxylated fatty acid ester of sorbitol by weight of the liquid composition, said emulsifier having a melting point of about 45° F., from about 0 to about 4 percent lecithin by weight of the liquid composition and from about 80 percent to about 95 percent water based on the total weight of the liquid composition.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
148 words
A method of de-panning a baked good from a pan in which it was baked which comprises spraying a liquid composition onto the pan before the good to be baked is placed in the pan or before said good is fully proofed, said liquid composition comprising an effective amount to effect de-panning of a liquid emulsifier containing from about 4 to about 9 percent monoglycerides and diglycerides derived from animal fats and/or vegetable oils based on the total weight of the liquid composition and from about 2 to about 7 percent of an ethoxylated fatty acid ester of sorbitol by weight of the liquid composition, said emulsifier having a melting point of about 45° F., from about 0 to about 4 percent lecithin by weight of the liquid composition and from about 80 percent to about 95 percent water based on the total weight of the liquid composition.
