A high moisture, highly stable, breakfast pastry which comprises a dough shell surrounding an encased, flavored filling material. The pastry is suitable for cooking/frying, freezing, subsequent thawing, and toasting. For products of this type, this breakfast pastry has an unusually high moisture content, and because of the special composition and processing of both the shell and the interior filling, there is a unique stability at the interface of the two, which minimizes often occurring undesirable phenomena, such as moisture migration, color deterioration, dough sogginess, and flavor loss.

A dough process is provided which allows for a slow release of pressure and dough expansion upon opening a dough container on chemically leavened fresh dough contained in the container with the release rate of pressure slower than a predetermined rate. The fresh dough contained in the container after slow release of pressure and baking will have high specific volume.

Method of processing dough to increase its baked specific volume

A glaze is provided which can be used on a refrigerated dough contained in a container and adapted for storage in a refrigerated dough case. The glaze is so formulated that it will remain on the surface of the dough and provide a glaze on the exterior of the bread product made from the dough after baking.

Dough glaze

A self supporting pliant dough product is provided which has provided in the formulation a drying agent which reduces the perception of gumminess in baked dough products. The dough can be chemically leavened and adapted for containment in a container for storage under refrigerated conditions.

Dough product containing an organic acid leavener

A refrigerated dough and method of manufacture are provided which will result in a baked product having a bread-like texture and/or allows the use of fast acting leaveners. The dough is adapted for being contained in a pressurized container and adapted for storage under refrigerated conditions.
