A leading UK bakery manufacturer and supplier of bakery components, Baking Solutions, has recently purchased a complete muffin-processing unit worth GBP100,000 from Turbo Systems

A leading UK bakery manufacturer and supplier of bakery components, Baking Solutions, has purchased a complete muffin-processing unit worth GBP100,000 from the specialist manufacturer of depositing technology, Turbo Systems Baking Solutions, based in Oxfordshire, won a major contract from a leading customer to supply muffins for over 300 outlets across the UK

The muffin range includes blueberry, chocolate chip and lemon flavours.

The company required a new injection system to meet increased demand and to provide its customer with high quality products.

Turbo Systems has been in close contact with Baking Solutions for around four years, so the company already knew about the Turbo high level of reliability and professionalism.

It also knew that Turbo Systems could supply all the main components of the processing line, therefore cutting down on suppliers and optimising the supply chain.

The lead-time was also an important factor for Baking Solutions.

To meet the retailers supply requirements, Turbo Systems initially loaned Baking Solutions a D152 depositor, before the main injection unit was supplied.

The first system, now incorporated onto the Baking Solutions existing oven system, is an eight-across muffin injection unit and the second machine is an off-line system, comprising of a six-across mini monoblock depositor and indexing conveyor.

In operation, the muffin batter is deposited in rows of four onto baking trays, and then conveyed into the oven.

After the muffins have been baked and come off the cooler, the baking trays are indexed, two at a time, and various flavours and textures of sauces are injected into the muffins.

Special Projects Manager of Baking Solutions, Andy Bastable, spoke about the equipment performance: "The muffin line is now working up to its full capacity and its performance is excellent.

It's very compact, therefore freeing up factory floor space, the throughputs are very high and the back-up service and training have been a real bonus".

Turbo Systems has been a provider of bespoke and innovative equipment solutions to the bakery industry for over 50 years.

Its machine range includes cutting units, coating and decorating nozzles, and a whole range of depositing equipment.

Baking Solutions have been trading within the bakery industry for over 10 years and has a 70,000sq ft nut free bakery facility in the heart of Oxfordshire.

It maintains 'A grade' BRC Accreditation and produces branded, own label and third party bakery lines to market.
