The Recipe for Success
Artisan and craft breads are a rising star of the baked goods industry. Just as consumers desire more choices in their daily bread, bakeries need flexible systems for baking baguettes to buns, sour doughs to ryes, Turkish bread to ciabattas — as well as a standard loaf. Auto-Bake has the ideal industrial bread baking system for all these artisan, home-style and family bread needs.
Our unique Serpentine bread oven system produces crusty, consistent breads baked from the bottom up, with true taste and texture. And for those who want the genuine forms and flavors of artisan-style breads, we’ve fused modern continuous baking technology with the option of a traditional stone hearth that retains solid heat at 250-260 degrees Celcius and adds that characteristic craftsman ‘curl’ from the base.
Our Modular Solution
Oven-alone, piece-by-piece or end-to-end — Auto-Bake’s fully customized artisan and craft bread solutions produce ‘home-style’ or pan-formed loaves with minimal manual input, optimum throughput and maximum output.

Baking Benefits
From baguettes through to chewy ciabattas and tasty Turkish breads, Auto-Bake Serpentine bread baking ovens deliver these delicious benefits:
Superior Product Consistency
The specially designed oven incorporates an effective steam zone. Plus, in stone hearth ovens, the stones are reheated on the return path to ensure constant high temperature.
Full Crust, Moist Result, Oven Spring and Volume
These ideal bread attributes are courtesy of the oven’s steaming zone, combined with careful moisture control and multi-zone heating.
Continuous Production
All operations are fully synchronized. The variable speed proofer is accurately matched to the speed of the oven.
Customized Cool-Off
Ambient and refrigerated coolers, plus blast freezer options, cater to all supply specifications.
