Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a bakeable leaf form pastry composition and a method for producing chocolate pastries. [Background technology]

[0002] Generally, baking margarine used to create layers between dough sheets in pastries contains about 5-10% less dairy cream than regular butters, taking into consideration suitability for the molding process. However, the pastry produced this time uses margarine without dairy cream, and also creates a leaf-shaped pattern on the pastry dough sheets. By creating a characteristic continuous leaf-shaped pattern, scraps generated during the molding process are designed to be less than 5%, minimizing factors that affect product quality when scraps accumulate during continuous production, which is a differentiated process.

[0003] After shaping the dough into leaves, a process of pre-mixing maltose powder and powdered sugar in a ratio of 7:3, which minimizes moisture absorption, was added to the top surface to give the pastry a glossy appearance after baking. Normally, sugar syrup (40~65 Brix°) is sprayed as a glossing agent, but this causes uneven dough expansion during baking and also has a limit where the moisture in the sugar syrup transfers to the pastry dough. In contrast, the above method uses ingredients with low moisture content to top the dough, which can maintain the shape of the pastry after baking and improve the stability of its inherent texture.

[0004] In contrast, bread pastries, which must be sold within a short expiration date, have a high moisture content in the dough itself, are easy to express flavors in, and have a moist texture and rich flavor compared to confectionery pastries. However, compared to confectionery pastries, they are inferior in heat stability, storage, and long-term distribution safety for more than one month, so there are limitations to mass production and distribution.

[0005] On the other hand, when producing margarine-containing confectionery / bread using such a pastry composition, special production equipment and processes or troublesome work procedures for the manufacturer are required to supply margarine by roll-in at a certain rate and to shape it into a desired shape.

[0006] Therefore, in the production of compositions in which bakeable margarine is rolled in and pastry sheet dough is shaped into leaves, which enhances the realization of texture attributes inherent to pastries and provides technically good thermal stability, storage and distribution safety, and chocolate pastries, there is a demand for products that can be commercially satisfied by consumers by increasing the convenience of roll-in and shape realization and ensuring distribution safety.

[0007] After the pastry was made, tempering chocolate was added to impart a high-quality chocolate flavor, leading to the invention of a method for making bottom half-enrobed chocolate pastries. This method was the first to be attempted in Korea for mass-produced pastries that are distributed for a long period of time (over a month). Similar methods exist overseas, including in Japan and Europe. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0008] [Patent Document 1] U.S. Patent Publication US005409723A (Apr. 25, 1995) Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0009] Therefore, the present inventors have studied the above problems and arrived at the present invention.

[0010] Therefore, one aspect of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a chocolate pastry composition with good morphology and texture.

[0014] Another aspect of the present invention provides a method for producing the pastry composition, comprising the steps of: preparing a pastry dough containing the margarine; forming the dough into a lobe; topping with sugar, maltose powder and powdered sugar; and baking.

[0015] In another aspect of the present invention, the method provides a method for producing bottom half-enrobed chocolate pastries, in which tempering chocolate is added to impart a high-quality chocolate flavor to the baked pastry dough, the method comprising the step of producing a chocolate composition comprising 13 to 15% by weight of semi-chocolate based on the total weight of the composition. Effect of the Invention

[0016] The pastry composition provided by the present invention embodies a texture that takes advantage of the characteristics of the butter flavor and 160 layers, and also ensures a level of heat resistance that allows it to be baked at high temperatures for a long time together with the pastry dough during production, and the pastries produced based on this are given a luxurious feel by adding chocolate.

[0021] The present invention will be described in detail below.

[0022] The present invention relates to a composition of bakeable margarine rolled-in pastry sheet dough formed into the shape of leaves and a method for making chocolate pastries.

[0023] More specifically, the pastry composition embodies a texture that takes advantage of the butter flavor and the characteristics of 160 layers, and also ensures a level of heat resistance that allows it to be baked at high temperatures for a long period of time together with the pastry dough during production, and the present invention relates to a method in which chocolate is added to the pastry confectionery produced based on this to impart a luxurious feel.

[0024] Generally, to roll-in margarine into pastry dough, the pastry dough is mixed and manufactured, then the dough and margarine are extruded simultaneously (in two layers) using a co-extruding device, then pressed with the first upper and lower rollers, folded into eight layers, pressed with the second upper and lower rollers, folded into ten layers, and pressed with the third to fourth upper and lower rollers to thin out to the final thickness (3mm or less). Then, it goes through a process to shape it into the desired shape, which is called the stamping process. It is stamped into a leaf shape and goes to the next process.

[0025] The present invention is the first to attempt this compared to other pastries in that it forms a differentiated shape (leaf) in the general process described above (Fig. 1). The top of the formed dough surface is topped with sugar (1st), maltose powder + powdered sugar (2nd), and then baked to give it a glossy appearance. After baking, the finished product as shown in Fig. 1 is obtained immediately without an additional gloss-giving process. The reason this invention is possible is that the margarine that can be baked is given heat resistance so that it can be rolled in, and after stamping into a leaf shape, the gloss of the top of the dough surface is realized before the baking process.

[0026] Various aspects of the invention are described below.

[0027] The present invention provides a composition in which bakeable margarine is rolled in and pastry sheet dough is formed into a leaf shape, and a method for producing chocolate pastry, the composition containing 39-42% by weight of wheat flour, 16-18% by weight of margarine (milk fat 0% by weight), 13-15% by weight of semi-chocolate (temper), 12-14% by weight of purified water, 8-10% by weight of sugar, 3-4% by weight of maltose powder + powdered sugar, 1.7-2.0% by weight of processed butter, 1.0-1.5% by weight of milk powder and cinnamon powder, 0.1-0.2% by weight of synthetic flavoring, 0.1-0.2% by weight of salt, 0.02-0.05% by weight of emulsifier, and 0.0007-0.001% by weight of coloring agent, based on the total weight of the chocolate pastry composition.

[0028] In one embodiment, the wheat flour may include at least one of general wheat flour and enriched wheat flour.

[0029] In one embodiment, the margarine is more suitable for manufacturing liquid milk than milk with a high solid fat content, which causes milk fat crystallization and changes due to temperature changes, compared to general margarines, but butter and processed butter can also be used depending on the physical properties of the final pastry dough product that are specifically required. While general margarines contain 5 to 10% by weight of milk fat, the margarine applied to the present invention contains 0% by weight of milk fat, and can realize pastries that can be baked.

[0030] In one embodiment, the purified water and sugar may include at least one of sugar and other sugars.

[0031] In one embodiment, the processed butter, milk powder, and cinnamon powder, artificial flavors, salt, and colorants are included to provide the unique flavor and color of the pastry.

[0032] In one embodiment, the emulsifier may include at least one of glycerin fatty acid ester, succinic acid monoglyceride, saturated acid monoglyceride, calcium stearoyl lactylate, sodium stearoyl lactylate, sugar ester, and lecithin. In one embodiment, the emulsifier may be included in an amount of 0.02 to 0.05% by weight.

[0033] In one embodiment, when the maltose powder + powdered sugar is included in an amount of 3 to 4 wt%, it is possible to realize a pastry gloss after baking.

[0034] In one embodiment, the semi-chocolate is a composition including 3 to 8% by weight of cocoa mass, 20 to 35% by weight of sugar, and 25 to 38% by weight of milk fats, and is soft and has a high-quality chocolate flavor after undergoing a tempering process in which the temperature of the chocolate is adjusted to stabilize milk fat crystals in the milk fats.

[0035] Another aspect of the present invention provides a method for producing the chocolate pastry, comprising the steps of: preparing a pastry dough containing the margarine; forming the dough into a lobe; topping with sugar, maltose powder and powdered sugar; baking; and adding tempering chocolate to the bottom half of the pastry to impart a high-quality chocolate flavor to the baked pastry (bottom half-enrobed chocolate).

[0036] In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of extruding the mixed pastry dough and margarine simultaneously (in two layers) in a co-extruding device, pressing the mixture with first upper and lower rollers, folding the mixture into eight layers, pressing the mixture with second upper and lower rollers, folding the mixture into ten layers, and pressing the mixture with third to fourth upper and lower rollers to a total of 160 layers (2 layers x 8 layers x 10 layers) and thinning the mixture to a final thickness (3 mm or less).

[0037] In one embodiment, the method comprises forming the dough into lobes (Figure 2).

[0038] In one embodiment, the method includes a step of topping with maltose powder and powdered sugar, and provides a method of topping with maltose powder and powdered sugar at 3 to 4% by weight.

[0039] In one embodiment, the method includes a baking step, in which the product is passed through a tunnel oven using gas heat as a heat transfer medium for 15 to 18 minutes.

[0040] In one embodiment, the method includes the step of adding tempering chocolate to a bottom half-enrobed chocolate, providing a method for coating the bottom half of a baked pastry confection with 13-15% by weight of semi-enrobed chocolate.

[0041] The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following specific examples. The following examples are merely illustrative to aid in understanding the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
