Throwing Down the Gauntlet

I’m writing this after three days at the CRFA show (put on by the Canadian Restaurant and Foodservices Association). Held in a new venue at the Direct Energy Place in Toronto, it combined two shows (Food & Beverage and Hostex) into one. It was a massive event, with a number of big name celebrity chefs to draw crowds, and that’s exactly what it did, with plenty of both exhibitors and visitors. As is always the case, the booths that garnered the most attention (aside, of course, from the ones giving away free alcohol) were the ones where something was going on. Chef demonstrations, product sampling, giveaways; you could tell which booths offered one of the above by the number of people clamouring to get close.

While our offer of magazine samples and the chance to purchase great industry publications and cookbooks always goes over well with trade show attendees, we got extra attention with Juan Hermosillo at our booth on the second day of the show. A native of Mexico, Hermosillo now represents Canada and Pizza Pizza as a master pizza thrower and spinner at competitions around the world. He also works with Canadian Pizza, our sister publication, from time to time, hence his presence at the show. When Hermosillo started tossing his pizza dough around, spinning it on the end of his finger like a basketball, throwing it from hand to hand, then quickly flipping his whole body into a one-handed handstand, his free hand still holding a spinning pizza, people stopped and people watched. Agog. Mouths hanging open. Cellphone cameras snapping.

The baking world may not have anything as acrobatic as Juan the pizza thrower to show off, but we do have a Team Canada. And that team is on display here, at Bakery Showcase, where many of you are likely reading this. For the first time ever at the show, the team will be strutting its stuff, demonstrating some of its unique products, talking about what it was like to train for the Louis Lesaffre Cup, and, more recently, what it was like to do demos at Europain in Paris.

More than support in the form of rah-rah-rah!, way to go guys, pat-on-the-back, the team needs financial support. It needs money. It’s not cheap to train for competitions like Louis Lesaffre and Le Coupe du Monde de la Boulangerie. It requires time and money, the majority of which the team members pulled from their own schedules and their own pockets.

Team USA, working with a reported budget of almost $150,000 (all of which is supplied by industry sponsors) first entered the Coupe du Monde in 1994. In 1996, it upset the French team with a first-place win in the Baguette and Specialty Breads category. Team USA followed that up three years later in 1999 with an even bigger upset: it took the title, and did the same thing in 2005, coming second in the 2002 event. These wins have done much for the baking industry in the USA, not the least of which has been boosting the image of the industry with frequent media appearances and making the baking world look a lot more interesting to the young people who will be its future.

Canada’s baking industry could garner the same kind of attention as the U.S. industry, could attract the same excitement as those booths at the CRFA show with the celebrity chefs, could generate the same excitement as a dexterous pizza spinner. Our bakers aren’t any less talented or skilled or gifted. They just haven’t been able to round up the right support. Are you up for the challenge? ❖

Tims sees profit jump

Coffee-shop chain Tim Hortons Inc. is boosting its quarterly dividend 28.6 per cent after fourth-quarter profit jumped 11.5 per cent to $75.7 million, from a year-ago $67.9 million.

“We met or exceeded our 2007 targets for operating income and unit growth, and we feel positive about our same-store sales performance over the past year, given the significant comparable period growth that we lapped,” Paul House, chairman and CEO, said in a release in February.

“In 2008, we will continue to focus on the things that have made us successful, including menu innovation, operational excellence and speed of service,” House added.

Fourth quarter same-store sales increased 3.4 per cent in Canada and 4.2 per cent in the U.S. as total revenues were $515.4 million, up 10.5 per cent from a year earlier.

For the full year, profit increased 3.8 per cent to $269.6 million or $1.43 a diluted share, compared with $259.6 million or $1.40 per share in 2006. Revenues were up 14.2 per cent to about $1.9 billion.

During the quarter, 119 new restaurants were opened, compared with 111 in

Pita Break approved as whole grain

Toronto-based Pita Break has received whole grain certification from The Whole Grains Council for five of its pita products. As of the end of February, Pita Break’s Morning Grain Breakfast Pitas, Flax Pitas, Multi-Grain Large Pitas, Whole Grain Wheat Large Pitas; and Mini Whole Grain Wheat Pitas now carry The Whole Grains Council seal of approval.

The Whole Grain Stamp program is three years old in the U.S., but only launched in Canada at the beginning of February.

Pita Break is a Toronto-based bakery known for nutritious flatbreads, pitas and crackers. Founded by the Ozery family in 1996, today Pita Break employs more than 110 employees in a 40,000-square-foot facility, with distribution throughout Canada and the U.S.

the fourth quarter of last year. A total of 198 restaurants were opened in 2007.

During the third quarter earnings call chief financial officer Cynthia Devine told investors that while “wide changes in commodity costs would be of concern... on a short-term basis we feel good about it.”

Original Cakerie to set up in London

With the help of the Ontario government and the Ontario Wheat Producer’s Marketing Board, B.C.-based sweets manufacturer The Original Cakerie will open a new plant in London, Ont. The government is providing $2.5 million to the bakery business for the construction of its new, 125,000-square-foot plant, set

to be completed by January 2009.

The Wheat Board will provide technical and research and development expertise to the new facility in London, and will contribute $60,000 in eligible inkind products and/or services towards the project.

The company has expanded and grown over the past 25 years and is now the largest privately owned frozen dessert manufacturer in Canada. The new plant is expected to create up to 400 new jobs, from positions in manufacturing and trades, to management.

The government investment was made through the Rural Economic Development Program. Since 2003, the province and its partners have invested $477.7 million in rural Ontario to build strong rural communities.

Tim Hortons names new president and CEO

Tim Hortons Inc. named Don Schroeder as its new president and chief executive in February, while current CEO Paul House will become executive chairman.

Both appointments were effective March 1.

Schroeder will be responsible for operational leadership and day-today running of the business as well as strategic development in collaboration with the executive chairman.

The CEO will report directly to the executive chairman. In his role as executive chairman, House will serve as a key liaison with franchisees.

Frank Iacobucci will continue as lead director.

Schroeder, 61, joined Tim Hortons in 1991. He currently deals with the distribution, manufacturing, construction, legal and human resources segments. ❖

A Study of Salt

This column is written by Dr. John Michaelides of the Guelph Food Technology Centre, 519-821-1246, www.gftc.ca

technical talk

Question: Why is salt important for the formulation of baked goods and how can the industry reduce or replace it?

Answer: Salt is a widely used food ingredient around the world. Humans have used salt in or on their foods for thousands of years. We are all familiar with its role in food preservation and the enhancement of taste, however, salt has additional functional roles in many food formulations. Salt’s functionality and importance in baked goods will be the focus of this article.

It is widely recognized and accepted that common salt has a detrimental effect on human health by increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. This is mainly attributed to the major component of salt, sodium. Sodium accounts for 39 per cent of common salt’s makeup. Sodium is the component of salt that plays the critical role of increasing blood pressure, so consuming high levels of salt can contribute to conditions like hypertension. Salt’s effect on other chronic diseases is still under debate. Sodium also plays a very important role in the function of the human body and the absence of sodium from our diet would be detrimental to overall health. Many would like to reduce their salt intake, but the complete elimination of salt from our diets is not possible. Human dependence on salt goes

beyond basic body function; there are other factors that would make elimination of salt impossible. One reason is cultural: humans are accustomed to the flavour enhancement that salt provides. Without salt many of the foods we eat would not be as palatable. Other reasons are functional; for instance, salt plays a key role in preserving food. It also has a more complex functional role that affects large-scale production of food products. While salt is critical in our food system, there is still an opportunity to reduce the amount used to a healthier level. As part of their health initiatives many large food companies are targeting salt reduction. The major emphasis of these initiatives is on research and formulation changes.

Common salt (sodium chloride) plays an important role in the formulation of baked goods. It is considered as one of the major ingredients in bread baking, along with flour, water and yeast. Salt does not present as just an isolated flavour, it also acts to enhance other flavours within the formulation. In fact, at the levels normally used in the formulation of baked goods salt does not impart a salty taste. It is well known that baking without salt results in bread with bland and non-descript taste. Salt not only enhances other flavours but increases sweetness, masks metallic and bitter flavours as well as many other undesirable tastes in food. This sweetness enhancing and masking functionality is used often in sweet baked goods.

Salt also contributes in controlling and stabilizing yeast fermentation in dough systems. Salt will prevent

The Tall Grass Prairie Bread Company

Organic,

On a table set away from the kitchen bustle of the Tall Grass Prairie Bread Company in Winnipeg, co-owner Tabitha Langel hovers over a group of preschoolers on tour from a day care.

“Does this look like bread yet?” she asks the half-dozen children as they run their fingers through shallow bowls of grain.

They are gathered at the Forks Market location, which opened in 2002. The original store at 859 Westminster Ave. opened in 1990 and has since become regarded as a cornerstone of the area. Although she and her staff have conducted dozens of tours over the years, Langel never tires of sharing her love for making bread. She has also found that children are not the only ones enthralled by the process.

“We’ve done many, many tours over the years with farmers. We’ve hosted grain chemists that work for the federal government and have done bread-making sessions with Parks and Canada workers

to re-inspire them by showing them what comes from the land,” says Langel. “I treated that group very much like I am the day care: getting them to make dough animals; getting them to feel the process. I start with the kernels, then have them hold their hands under the mill as flour falls like a soft, dry rain through their fingers.”

Today’s tour, organized as part of a program called “Growing Up Organic,” which aims to get more organically grown produce and products into day-care centres, makes for a particularly good fit with Langel, herself a passionate booster of the uncompromised nutritional attributes of organic food. The level of knowledge among the general public varies greatly but most people readily appreciate the health benefits of produce grown without pesticides and chemical enhancements.

Both Tall Grass bakeries use only certified organic or locally produced grains, seeds, produce and basic ingredients, passing on to their customers as much of

the whole foods that have gone through as little time and processing as possible from the field to the table.

This is certainly true of the approximately 25 bushels per week of whole grain the bakery grinds on site every week at the Forks using two small mills.

“The process of milling and baking should never have been separated,” says Langel. “So many of the chemical processes like bleaching were a result of the war. We don’t need flour with a shelf life of 10 years anymore but the practices that came about for necessity became entrenched by the desire for profit.” She shrugs. “I understand that, but I still hope that one day bleaching will stop because we all know how terrible that is. Here, with our own mills, shelf-life is a nonissue.”

Langel means that quite literally, since very little of the great variety of goods prepared each and every morning at the bakeries ever remain on the shelves at the end of the day. In addition to the baked goods, Tall Grass sells plenty of its freshly ground flour for those who love to bake at home. In Langel’s opinion, more and more people are realizing that what is sold as 100 per cent whole wheat flour is actually just white flour with just enough bran added back to pass government regulations, and that the term “whole wheat” doesn’t hold as much weight with informed consumers as it once did.

Aside from the nutritional benefits of including whole foods in our lifestyles, events like the “100 Mile Diet” have contributed to the awareness of environmental factors such the fuel burned to transport foods, even if it is organic, as well as the emphasis on supporting the local economy. A network of a dozen Manitoba agricultural businesses form the heart of Tall Grass suppliers.

Langel ruefully admits that conducting tours is terribly expensive as far as productivity and time are concerned and unless the participants are part of their customer base, it makes even less business sense.

“The reason I do it is because I love spreading the word about organic and raising awareness. To me it’s a social service. Tours of the first store started because we wanted to thank our customers there. Those kids lived on our bread. We’ve always felt very grateful for people having bought into

what we were trying to do.”

What she and fellow founders Sharon Lawrence and Lyle Barkman started nearly 20 years ago has forged a stronger bond between those who worked the land, themselves and their customers.

“The banks thought we were crazy,” Langel says. But they were right on the money. Knowing where their food came from and what went into it did matter to people. The trio also found that the ethical division of profits mattered just as much and that their customers supported their philosophy as much as they loved the bakery’s bread.

“Back then, they called us a hippie church, “she laughs. “We were and still are very connected to a social justice ideal, but all that means is that we believe in giving everyone their fair share and customers a fair price.”

Tall Grass’s owners are also very concerned about responsible and sustainable agricultural practices. At the time of the bakery’s founding, many farmers were literally losing their shirts and their land. Farmers were getting about two cents for every loaf of bread sold. Today, Langel estimates about four cents is average while a farmer dealing directly with Tall Grass nets 11 cents per loaf.

When it comes to the business, this is

only one of two instances where Langel is keen to talk about money. The other side of the coin is about paying skilled bakers their worth. “You can’t pay artisans minimum wage,” she says emphatically.

All three businesses combined, she reckons the bakery has 25 full-time positions, with another half-dozen part-time jobs. For the most part, those are students who combine their need for an income with their studies in food sciences, envi-

ronmental studies, and agriculture.

“We always have a resident philosophy student or two as well,” adds Langel. Philosophical considerations aside, there is little doubt that nutrition-conscious consumers are prepared to pay more for products they perceive as having valueadded benefits. The success of the Tall Grass Prairie Bread Company is proof positive that it is possible to strike a balance between the ideal and the practical for a company of that size. As much as Langel would like to see the same adaptation of processes on a larger commercial scale, she appreciates the limitations of the industry and is content to live and work in her chosen lifestyle.

“There is no question that for me, this is a whole life choice,” she says. ❖

Growing Up Organic

An Organic Wave

Is organic the new kosher?

I’m still amazed at how many people in the food industry truly believe that organic foods are a fad destined to fade into obscurity like the low-fat or low-carb trends. For the record, the modern organic movement started at the turn of the 20th century, is currently estimated at $25 billion in North America, and, according to the Organic Trade Association’s 2007 Manufacturer Survey, is expected to grow at about 20 per cent a year over the next few years. It is difficult by these metrics to accept the argument that organic is a fad. But exactly where is organic headed? Perhaps some insight might be gained by examining another relatively recent trend in the food industry.

Kosher-certified food is another industry segment that has achieved tremendous growth in recent years. Some estimates place kosher food sales in North America in excess of $165 billion. The research group Mintel reports that over 14,300 new kosher retail products have been launched in the past five years in North America. I’d be hard pressed to produce examples of non-kosher ingredients that I have handled in my 13 years as an ingredient supplier (all of the organic ingredients we currently handle are also kosher). Clearly, the demand from strict observers of kosher laws and tradition alone cannot explain the size and rapid growth of the market, so there must be other compelling reasons for producers to produce, and consumers to consume, kosher products.

One of those reasons, from a producer’s perspective, is to ensure access to important markets, as many retailers and distribution channels require kosher certification. Consumers perceive kosher supervision as an additional layer of quality control. A kosher symbol has been likened to the modern equivalent of the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. Others, like vegetarians or consumers with allergens, use the kosher symbol as a security measure to avoid foods containing meat and dairy products. Regardless of the reasons, kosher certification has become an almost ubiquitous component of ingredient supply and certainly a significant reality for most finished product manufacturers.

In the same way, there are also

different classifications of consumers who buy organic foods. There are, of course, the stereotypical Birkenstock-wearing hippie types who are exclusive organic consumers. The largest group, however, and the group that is driving organic from niche to mass market, can be referred to as the mixed-cart consumer. These consumers buy organic for perceived advantages in quality and nutrition.

Like kosher, organic certification represents an additional layer of inspection and supervision conducted by third-party organizations. And in most countries, organic claims are now specifically regulated (Canada is one of the last

first-world countries to have federal organic regulations – passed in December 2006 and scheduled to come into full effect in December 2008). Now, in addition to the certifying body’s logo, which is generally proudly displayed on packaging, manufacturers selling into many jurisdictions can also include a universal government logo that will be widely recognized and serve as a kind of seal of authenticity.

The health and nutrition aspect of organic foods is a more delicate topic. It is unlikely that anyone in the organic movement would engage someone in the argument that an organic apple is “healthier” than a conventional one.

That being said, for most consumers the thought of ingesting fewer chemical pesticides and synthetic additives is undoubtedly an intuitively appealing concept. One would hardly be required to show decades of medical research to convince consumers of this point. Moreover, in the last few years there has been some very interesting research showing significantly higher nutrients contained in organic foods compared to their conventionally produced counterparts. This supports the longstanding organic principle that a healthier environment equals healthier foods. Regardless of the perceived health benefits, consumers of certified organic foods can be sure that they are buying foods made with identity-preserved non-gmo materials, no hydrogenated fats, fewer refined carbohydrates, more whole grains and fewer synthetic additives.

Safety has also been a demonstrable driver of organic consumption. The best and most recent example of this was the Menu Foods recall last year. Shortly after the issue came to light, The New York Times reported on the spike in demand for organic pet food. Organic pet food manufacturers and retailers reported up to a 50 per cent increase in sales of their products. The following comment, which was posted on a pet-related blog, can sum up consumer sentiment: “Here we trusted good names and ‘high quality foods’ and we purchased and fed our animals poison! Makes me so sad and angry. I don’t trust it; I feed Jack organic food now.” (L.A. Glass). Other foods scares have also prompted spikes in consumption of organic products, like reported outbreaks of salmonella and E. coli, and the BSE scare of 2003.

Browse through the menu at any fine restaurant and you’re likely to see the word organic peppered throughout. Or visually compare the produce section at your grocery store with the organic section at Whole Foods; it’s easy to comprehend why organic and quality have gained synonymy. Organic conjures up images of small farmers and artisan producers lovingly cultivating crops and creating fine artisan foods. The organic movement has also been strongly tied with the principles of fair trade and social responsibility.

Wandering the halls of BioFach 2008, the world’s largest organic trade fair, you can notice a subtle difference in the branding of organic. In Europe, the organic seal is a subheading, representing an assurance. In other words, organic apple juice is apple juice first, organic second. The

market has matured to the point that “organic” alone is not enough of a differentiator.

For consumers, then, “organic” represents food products that carry an assurance of some combination of the following characteristics: quality, safe, natural, healthy, environmentally and socially responsible. Assuming that consumers continue to demand these qualities in their food products, and judging by the more than 70 per cent of North Americans who have purchased organic products (according to The Hartman Group), the organic seal has the potential to swing from a

product differentiator to a consumerdriven expectation. ❖

Early in 2008, the unemployment rate in Canada was the lowest it had been in 33 years. There were regional differences – resources and oil continued to drive the west while a strong dollar hurt manufacturers in central Canada – but employers across the country were scrambling to find and keep employees.

This is because low unemployment explains only part of the staffing challenge facing employers. The rest comes from the relatively small number of people who were born in Canada between 13 and 33 years ago as part of the country’s Baby Boom Echo.

Thirty years ago, when the Baby Boomers were young, it made sense to build a staff around “entry-level” workers (people approximately 22 years of age). But those days are gone and they will never return. No amount of immigration can offset our lack of young people, so employers simply must find new ways to staff their businesses.

Some of the country’s bigger employers are coping with today’s changing labour market more effectively than smaller employers. In part, this is because they employ specialists to come up with innovative staffing ideas – and then allocate the resources needed to implement those ideas.

Using our experience as retail consultants, we recently spent several days studying the current “best practices” in terms of finding and keeping employees. We then translated these into tips that should be practical and useful, if perhaps a bit unconventional, for smaller employers.

Not all of the following ideas will be useful for every employer in the baking industry, but there will likely be two or three recipes that are worth following.

Mentally separate production and retail. Companies in the baking industry typically create much of what they sell, making it all too easy for an owner or manager to favour one aspect of the business over the other. This could be based on background or personal experience, or simply because that person finds one part of the business to be more “fun.” In the context of finding and keeping productive employees, however, the two sides of the business are equally important – and very, very different. People working in produc-

Make sure you’re hiring the right person for the job. People working in production need different knowledge, skills and experience (both on the job and in life) than those of people working in retail.

tion need different knowledge, skills and experience (both on the job and in life) than people working in retail. Bigger employers try hard to understand these differences so that they can get the right people in the right positions.

Systemize so you can step away. When a business owner wants to franchise his or her concept, one of the first steps is to systemize all aspects of the business so that others can first understand and then replicate it. Many small employers view developing a “system” as a waste of time, but bigger employers see it as a way that managers can guide and instruct people without actually being there. Thirty years ago, we would have been describing a system of policies and procedures presented nicely in a three-inch binder. In contrast, the system that makes sense today comprises a series of single-sheet checklists that can be explained to and quickly followed by new employees to help them get up to speed and perform efficiently.

Build your team around the Bust. Most employers who try to mix people born during Canada’s Baby Boom (1946 to 1965 according to StatsCan) with people born during the Baby Boom Echo (1975 to 1995) eventually wonder if mixing oil and water wouldn’t be easier. We could devote

an entire issue of Bakers Journal to the reasons these two demographic cohorts do not mix, but basically it comes down to parents being different from their children. As bigger employers get tired of refereeing, some are deciding that people born during the Baby Bust (1966 to 1974) make productive, stable employees. Typically offering a solid education and some practical experience, they also have enough life experience to understand their importance to the business and its customers.

Revisit your incentive program. In some workplaces, employees get annual raises essentially for lasting another year. Average employees like this system because they can keep up with inflation just by putting in time. But it works directly against the need of retail bakeries to increase efficiency each year, producing more from less just to stay in business. That’s why bigger employers create incentive programs based largely on productivity. Anyone in human resources will confirm that the things you reward will be the things employees do. Targets for production might involve the efficient use of ingredients, while targets for retail might involve items per transaction. They should be observable and measurable to prevent any disagreements, and they should be high but achievable so that everyone can “win.”

Are there holes in your whole grain baking process?

Whole grain products may be the nutritional favorite of consumers, but for bakers it’s another story. Danisco’s PANODAN® DATEM and GRINDAMYL™ POWERBake bakery enzymes strengthen the gluten matrix in your dough. This allows bakers to add higher levels of grains and fibers or reduce gluten content without sacrificing quality and minimizes processing challenges. Plus, the addition of just a small amount of these ingredients will keep more of your product in consumers’ hands and less in your dumpster, improving overall profitability. Add in a cleaner label and you’ve got a product consumers want and is easier on your process. What’s not to love?

Establish standards before you hire. When facing a shortage of staff, owners and managers may be tempted to lower their standards and hire the first breathing candidate who walks through the door. Bad move, since this can lead to the business producing lower-quality products and offering vending-machine service (visit any of Canada’s department stores or franchised restaurants for proof). Instead of lowering standards, now is the time to raise them. This may “cost” the business in terms of higher wages, but bigger employers know that long-term customer satisfaction is more important. Your new hires must agree on: starting and finishing times, unscheduled overtime, vacations and sick days, use of cell phones and iPods, personal use of business computers and access to socialnetworking sites such as Facebook.

Try hiring half a person. People in their early 20s, the baking industry’s traditional entry-level workers, will represent a smaller and smaller percentage of Canada’s total population for at least the next 15 years. Which means that any staffing strategy built around them is pretty much doomed to failure. This is creating a huge demand for people in their mid-30s or older (in some cases, for people in their mid-50s or older – something unheard of not long ago). In addition to demanding and deserving higher wages, people at these life stages have different interests and priorities than entry-level workers. And some bigger employers are finding it more efficient to hire two or three “older and wiser” employees part time than one rookie full time.

Work at becoming more flexible. Any Canadian born in the mid-1970s or later has grown up with personal computers, electronic games and various other gadgets. This has resulted in a nation of young people living in a highly networked “blog” world in which their thoughts count and are worth sharing. This, in turn, has resulted in major conflicts with older employers, mostly over priorities and values. These are the fundamentals that each side believes in, and a powerful force in an employee’s decision to embrace a job or leave. Bigger employers are learning to focus on the take-off and landing issues, the 20 per cent of workplace activities that produce 80 per cent of the bottom line. Exactly how jobs get done becomes less important, within safe practices.

Feed and educate your people. No amount of theoretical training can match an employee’s personal experience when it comes to the products you produce and sell. Thirty years ago, much of the baking industry was “mass” and “bland” in the North American way, but this has changed profoundly. Most companies now produce specialty products for niche customers and sell broader services such as catering. Unfortunately, employees who have not been specially trained often don’t have the knowledge and experience they need to move much beyond written recipes or basic clerking. Bigger employers have found that the solution is to feed them, either at a reduced price or at no charge. Rather than a “free lunch,” this is a structured program through which employees learn about products.

Be a coach instead of a boss. Thirty years ago, the owner or manager of a retail bakery needed to be a boss. In the same way as a teacher, he or she knew the “right” answers and spent the day telling people what to do and how to do it. Responsibility rested at the top, which turned out to be too far from the customers who ultimately paid the bills. That’s why there isn’t much enthusiasm for “bossing” today, especially among bigger employers that want to build long-term relationships with customers. Instead, these companies try to free employees to be as good as they can be – to manage, not micromanage. The most common coaching message an employee hears is, “Good job. I liked the way you...” ❖

A Touch of Class

Are you searching your soul trying to come up with ways to differentiate your business? Are the big box stores literally eating your lunch? If you’re like most small business owners, these are the questions keeping you up at night. The good news is that as a small business, you’re uniquely suited to offer experiences to your clientele that bigger stores can’t duplicate. Though you may not have considered adding “teacher” to your bag of tricks, the in-store class or seminar may prove just your ticket to increasing your share of the pie.

You may be wondering if it’s worth the trouble. After all, it’ll take some time to develop a series of seminars, which will then need to be advertised and executed. The key is to begin with the end in mind. These in-store events are all about wordof-mouth advertising and retail theatre. Those 10 people who attend your seminar will most likely regale their eight co-workers at lunch the next day with tales of the wonderful time they had at your seminar. Exponentially, there will possibly be 100 people who hear about your business from that root event. Since the attendees have a rich experience to share, there’s more to talk about than if they simply came in and bought a loaf of bread. Think of topics that would be fun for customers to learn about and for you to teach. Seasonal and lifestyle topics are perfect fodder for a series of workshops. Madelines, Cherry Pie and Ice Cream in Toronto, offers an Easter egg decorating workshop for grownups as well as children. It’s an opportunity for customers to tap into their “inner Martha Stewart.” How to make the perfect pie, cake decorating and preparing beautiful plates are just some of the topics consumers may find intriguing. Wine boutiques often have great success by holding in-house workshops around wine tastings. Why not steal a page from the wine industry’s book and hold a chocolate tasting that could showcase chocolate from various origins around the world. You can show customers first-hand how Belgium chocolate truly differs from Swiss – and who can resist an evening of sampling chocolate?

Once you have your topics lined up, you’ll need to draft an outline of the class itself. Document the key points you’ll wish to cover and then consider how much time each point will take. Two-hour seminars are generally good for customers since time is still a precious commodity for most folks.

Offering baking classes from your bakery is a great way to create buzz and loyalty.

You’ll probably want to budget about a half-hour of wriggle room for questions or to run a bit over. With practice, you’ll get to know innately how things will flow. List the materials you’ll need and create a spreadsheet to track the costs associated with the event. Depending on where you’re located and the complexity of your event, charging anywhere from $20 to $60 per person per seminar is appropriate. You may wish to start on the lower end to gauge interest in your offering and then raise the rates later as you become more comfortable in delivering the content and measuring the response to the seminars. Create a small handout for attendees outlining any key content points, recipes or sources for ingredients. Have pens available for people to take notes and if these pens are sporting your shop name website and phone number, even better!

Promoting your seminars can be done in a variety of ways. Your most likely participants will be existing customers who love your products. Paint a section of your wall with blackboard paint and get a couple of chalk paintbrushes from an art supply store. List the seminars with the associate cost and dates on the board for people to read as they stand in line. As the seminars fill up, take another colour of chalk and write, “sold out” across the listing. This shows people that your events are in demand, and nothing creates more buzz than

something that’s popular. Print your seminars on bag stuffers to put in with purchases. Your website will prove to be a real asset here as it would be wise to create a section called “Events and Seminars” to list your upcoming classes. You’ll want this section clearly listed on your home page so visitors to your site can get to your class listing in one click. If you can work with your webmaster to let visitors register online, even better. Collect e-mail addresses from your clientele (with permission to send notification of events) and send out the class schedule to subscribers. The key to a good call to action lies in how easy it is for consumers to take the action. Try placing a small ad in your local paper that has a catchy headline such as, “Calling All Chocoholics.”

No doubt as you begin holding events in house, customers will begin to tell you what they’d like to see and you’ll never be without content for future seminars. So think of your business as having a “culture of learning” and have fun with the journey. On the other hand, you could just call it the “school of hard candy.” ❖

over-fermentation. Over-fermentation creates dough with excessive gas and sourness, and gives finished baked goods undesirable open grain and poor texture. Salt acts to lower the gas production rate and therefore produces the longer proof times needed for goodquality baked goods. Salt changes the osmotic pressure within the yeast cell thus controlling the yeast activity. The science behind the effect of salt on yeast cells is beyond the scope of this article and will not be discussed in detail. Salt is, however, an effective tool

in controlling the action of the yeast and gas formation. This is especially true where temperatures cannot be easily controlled, like the conditions found in small bakery establishments.

Salt also affects proteins in various food systems. The wheat gluten protein, which is the fundamental component of the baking process especially for the yeast-raised products, is also affected by the presence of salt. The hydration of gluten, as well as its development and strength, is dramatically affected by the salt content in the formula. The hydration of flour is achieved at a slower rate with the addition of low levels of

salt in the formulation. The slower rate is achieved because salt shields the gluten’s overall positive charges, therefore reducing repulsion and allowing the proteins to come in closer contact. This will result in a slower hydration rate of the flour and therefore an increase in the mixing time required to develop the dough. This is important because longer mixing time will result in a slower rate of production in large bakeries and thus increase energy consumption and slower production outputs. This problem can be corrected by the addition of the salt at a later stage of the process when the dough forms and no longer sticks to the side of the mixer. In addition, salt may also reverse the loss of elasticity in doughs that have been over-mixed and have lost their elastic properties. Common salt is known to increase dough strength at its normal level of addition (1.5 to 2 per cent) in bread formulations. However, the addition of salt above these levels does not improve the loaf volume of bread. Unfortunately, when a sodium chloride substitute is used, there could be a detrimental effect on the loaf volume and other characteristics of the bread.

Salt has a critical effect on both hydrophobic (water repelling) interactions and hydrogen bonding properties of the gluten proteins thus affecting the rheology and the overall development of the dough. Different salts (other than sodium chloride) have different effects on the proteins and some may be suitable as replacements for traditional salt. These could be viable alternatives in our efforts to reduce sodium in baked goods. The effect these alternatives will have on the dough and the yeast is dependent on the type of ions they carry and this can present a challenge when substituting.

Many efforts have been made both from ingredient manufacturers and food companies to reduce or completely replace salt in food products. Some success has been generated using potassium chloride as a substitute. Manufacturers have reported success with as much as a 50 per cent potassium chloride, 50 per cent sodium chloride mix. Although potassium chloride has similar effects on the baking process to sodium chloride the major problem with this salt is the introduction of a metallic taste, which cannot be easily masked in various foods. Other salts that can possibly, at least partially, replace sodium chloride include magnesium chloride, magnesium acetate and potassium gluconate.

THE FINAL PROOF

Industry research chair in cereal technology, Dr. Koushik Seetharaman is leading innovative research initiatives in cereal grains in the Department of Food Science at the University of Guelph in Guelph, Ont. The position has been funded in part by a consortium of industry groups, the Ontario Cereals Industry Research Council (OCIRC). Seetharaman has a master’s from Cornell University and a PhD in food science from Texas A & M University. He also completed post-doctorate work at Iowa State University, was on faculty at Penn State and worked as a consultant to the cereals industry. With more than 20 years of experience in cereal research, and product and industry consulting, Seetharaman provides a breadth of experience for the baking sector. We caught up with Seetharaman after class (over a pint of fermented barley) to talk about the future directions of baking innovation.

Your interest in cereals research goes back a long time. What drew you to this area of research?

As a vegetarian I have been interested in cereals all my life, however, aside from my personal interest in grains, I am also fascinated by the complexity of grains in terms of nutrients, structure, disease resistance and genetic attributes. There are many opportunities in this area for value-added products that provide significant health benefits.

Dr. Koushik Seetharaman is the new industry research chair in cereal technology at the University of Guelph.

Why is there a need for a research chair in cereals?

This position, similar to the one I had at Penn State, will help to drive cereal research in this region. There are not many cereal research centres east of the Mississippi, and yet this is the region with the most consumers. In Canada, there are no cereal research centres east of Manitoba, but all cereal processors are in the East. What is needed is a high-calibre centre of quality cereals research to assist the innovative companies in this region.

For example, roughly 80 per cent of the wheat in Ontario is soft, which has implications for end use quality. Ontario food manufacturers and processors will now have local technical support for this type of wheat instead of having to go to Ohio, for example. We can assist the Ontario cereals industry in all matters related to cereals, including the pliability of dough referred to as “dough rheology” – this level of support is required to assist product developers in this area.

What exactly do you mean by “technical support” for wheat-based process foods?

The oven is like a “black box”: bakers know what goes into the oven and what comes out, but they don’t know what exactly goes on inside the oven at a molecular level. What goes on in the oven matters a great deal to the final product quality attributes. The baking industry needs to deconstruct the chemistry taking place in the oven in order to create new textures and flavours, and to bake with some degree of consistency and predictability. Experimentation is not enough. If you use different baking temperatures over the course of the baking process instead of just one, you will get a different texture. You can also affect the glycemic index and the shelf-life by altering the baking temperature – same dough, different temperature gives you different bread. Bakers need to consider the process of baking, not just the input and output.

What other areas of innovation do you feel are important to the future of baking? Nanotechnology? Fortification?

The term nanotechnology is overused. For me it doesn’t mean much, it’s only one component. And fortification is not innovation – there is nothing new in this area – we’ve covered the basics. In fact, research is showing that using whole grains is more nutritious than fortifying with the individual components of whole grains.

Innovation happens at a molecular level, specifically, with the starch granule. Starch influences the properties of baked goods. And cornstarch does not behave the same way as wheat starch. We need to determine how the structure of starch can be modified to affect the end product. For example, long grain rice like basmati rice is never sticky but short grain rice like Chinese rice is always sticky. This phenomenon exists because of the differences in the configuration of the starch granule.

To prepare for innovation, bakers need to better understand the product they are making and selling. What do consumers like about the product, what do they want and what can bakers do to get it? Bakers cannot create products in a void; they need an understanding of the chemical process. If 100 pounds of wheat is not producing 100 pounds of product, you need to know why.

Innovation also means energy conservation. Energy is being wasted because of not just old ovens, but old oven technology. Heat efficiency is poor – we need more efficient ovens. There is a 20 to 30 per cent savings just by understanding how to make the ovens more efficient.

What type of product development ideas should bakers consider?

Product development ideas are not a problem – what we need is to better understand large-scale manufacturing and how to reduce waste by making better formulation changes, for example, to reduce trans fats. If you understand the product at a molecular level reformulation is much easier. For example, what holds things together? Just like cement holds bricks together, the sugar holds the sugar cookie together, gluten holds the bread together and starch holds the cake together. Once you understand what each component is doing to affect the final product you can make changes with consistent and predictable results. We also need to clean up the labels – if you do not know why and what each ingredient is doing in the product, get rid of it.

What is your area of research?

I am intrigued by the structure of starches in cereal and the ability to manipulate these structures to create healthier products with better glycemic responses. Lowering the glycemic index means that the starch is absorbed slowly and does not trigger a huge release in insulin. This modulating effect of low-GI products can help to reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes and other health risks. We are doing research in the area of slowly digestible starch – this product can lower the glycemic response of many types of baked products. For example, from low to high GI, we have insoluble fibre (wheat bran), soluble fibre (i.e., oat bran), slowly digestible starch and the rapidly digestible starch (i.e., rice or bread). This is an area that holds great promise for healthy cereal-based food choices.

What new regulations do you see for the baking industry in the future?

There are some potential changes to the regulations in the future. For example, there will

be limits or a ban placed on acrylamide. This compound is a carcinogen, and is created when bread is allowed to brown. Chemically it is a reaction between an amino acid, asparagines, and the sugar, glucose. Reducing the temperature and/or asparagines reduces the amount of this compound. More research is needed in this area.

What is most exciting about your new position?

At a personal level, it is inspiring to collaborate with a new group of scientists

in both nutrition and biochemistry, and the food manufacturers and processors within the cereals and baking industry. I am also really pleased to be able to bring new research and perspectives to century-old beliefs and practices to accelerate innovation in this area. Challenging old paradigms is the heart of innovation. I am grateful to have this opportunity. ❖

Other low-sodium salt replacers are also on the market. These may include blends of sodium chloride with potassium chloride, magnesium sulphate and the amino acid L-lysine hydrochloride. Ingredient suppliers are actively involved in developing replacers and some are now available. These include Lo Salt, Saxa So-low, Morton Lite Salt and others. Recently, Jungbunzlauer introduced Sub4salt Salt, an ingredient that is claimed to replace salt by 35 per cent in bread and other baked

goods without affecting the taste and processing properties. In addition to salt replacers, flavour enhancers may be used, which work by activating receptors in the mouth and compensate for the salt taste reduction. Such enhancers include yeast extracts, nucleotides and a recently introduced Danisco ingredient SALboost. Monosodium glutamate is also used as a flavour enhancer, but it is not as desirable, as it contains sodium and its use is somewhat controversial. Before venturing into replacements using other salts or commercially available replacers and enhancers, make

sure of the regulatory status of these ingredients both for domestic use and the export market.

Remember, direct replacement may not be practical and there will be additional effort needed in the reformulation process in order to achieve the desired results. ❖

Dear Friends

On behalf of the Board of Directors we would like to offer you a warm welcome to Bakery Showcase 2008. As part of its history, Bakery Showcase has constantly featured innovation and the latest trends for the benefit of Canada’s baking industry which are particularly important as our industry faces today’s unprecedented challenges.

For the past 12 months Canadian bakers have faced growing and in some cases unprecedented pressure on input pricing. And while the industry deals with growing cost pressures, new product opportunities are appearing as consumers continue demanding health focused products ranging from simple whole grains through to prebiotics, omega-3, flax, fibre, micronutrients, organic, kosher and halal.

Bakery Showcase 2008 will address many of these challenges along with outlining the opportunities for the future. New products, cost saving technologies and other essentials will be featured throughout the trade show floor to help bakers remain competitive. The seminars and workshops will focus on increasing sales and expansion of product lines to take advantage of the consumer health focus.

We are also delighted with the addition of two new features to this year’s event. Team Bake Canada will be on hand to provide a series of demonstrations of their Coupe du Monde Competition techniques. As well, entries in the Creative Bread Competition, sponsored by BAC’s Ontario Chapter will be on display and are sure to inspire bakers.

Bakery Showcase 2008 once again offers much for you to learn and experience. We look forward to seeing you there!

Bakers Face Unprecedented Challenges Over Commodity Prices

Bakers in Canada, the U.S. and across the world are facing extraordinary challenges in their efforts to cope with unprecedented price increases for all agricultural commodities. The price rises are being driven by increasing consumption patterns in developing markets such as China and India, increased demand from the biofuels sector as energy companies continue to plough funds into the development of cleaner fuels. Coinciding with these increases has been a period of low supply as a result of extreme weather in major exporting nations that has reduced global stocks. As an example, disruptions to wheat supplies in major producing nations have put considerable pressure on the U.S. where the wheat inventories have dropped to a 60-year low.

The increase in commodity prices has had a significant impact on global food price inflation. In Italy, which imports some 50% of its wheat, a 30% increase in the price of pasta led to a oneday consumer association boycott. The impact of these increases is also being felt in other food sectors as farmers in the meat, poultry, dairy and pork sectors attempt to deal with spiralling feed prices.

In response to the situation, BAC has been very active with local and national media in an effort to communicate the problems bakers are facing. Paul Hetherington, BAC President and CEO has participated in more than 15 media interviews, all of which focused on explaining the situation to the public at large. “Bakers are doing their best to contain costs but the reality is that consumers need to understand that the unprecedented escalation of commodity prices along with other substantial input increases such as energy means that these costs will be reflected through higher food inflation,” says Hetherington. “With little relief in sight, consumers should expect to see higher prices in the grocery store for most of their basic food items.”

While little can be done about the weather affecting crops or emerging markets, there is a

growing focus on the impact of biofuels relating to commodity prices. In its March 10, 2008, edition, Maclean’s magazine story “Why your grocery bill is about to hurt: heat, corn, beef: prices are soaring. Is the global food supply in danger?” stated, “For those anxious to assign blame, the U.S. biofuels industry has made a particularly juicy target. With US$6 billion worth of annual subsidies going into the ethanol industry, critics say, the dream of making America more energy independent has inverted an equation that held for millennia — namely, that you increase food production by putting more energy into it (in the post-industrial age, energy means tractor fuel and nitrogen fertilizer). Now, farmers are being blandished with government money to convert food into energy. Pimentel, the Cornell agricultural scientist, has dubbed it the “biofuel boondoggle”: fully 20 per cent of the U.S. corn crop went into creating ethanol last year, yet it provided only one per cent of the country’s fuel needs. “So it’s not making us energy independent at all, and it’s driving up the price of everything else,” he says. “You’re taking corn away from feeding livestock, and sure enough, here in the States, the price of meat, milk and eggs has gone up 10 to 20 per cent. The price of other grains that you can use as substitutes is going up, because they’re in short supply, too.”

In response to these and other concerns the U.K. government on Feb. 21, 2008, announced a review of its biofuel policy and on February 24th the European Parliament’s Climate Change Committee also called for an urgent review of the EU biofuels policy which it stated in its press release “should fully account for and safeguard against any associated negative environmental social and economic impact.”

In addition to its media efforts BAC has continued and continues to discuss the impact of record high commodity prices with both Federal and provincial governments.

BAC Calls for Bakery Exemption to Toronto Emission Reporting Proposal

BAC has called for an exemption for bakeries from a proposed new emission reporting requirement by the City of Toronto that could add thousands of new dollars in costs to retail, in-store and commercial bakeries doing business within the city limits. The Toronto proposal would require reporting by all businesses emitting any combination of 25 substances including bakery-produced ethanol in an effort to “encourage local business to find ways to reduce chemicals and begin environmental programs.”

Ethanol from bakeries is naturally occurring and is released as a result of the

actual fermentation and baking process. Ethanol begins in the dough fermentation process and is released during baking when the temperature of the baked good rises above the vaporization temperature of ethanol at 78.3ºC. As the fermentation process is the catalyst for ethanol production there is no opportunity to reduce ethanol production.

BAC also expressed serious concerns regarding the financial implications to a baking industry already facing unprecedented cost pressures. BAC noted that many commercial bakeries are already reporting their emissions provincially

ALMOND CUPCAKES

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F. Place cupcake liners in a cupcake pan.

Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt on a sheet of parchment paper. In a small bowl or measuring glass, combine almond milk, vanilla and almond extract. In the bowl of a standing mixer, beat butter until creamy. Add 1 cup sugar and beat on high speed until fluffy. Add the flour mixture in 3 parts, alternating with the almond milk mixture and beating on low speed after each addition. Move this mixture to a large bowl.

Ingredients:

•3 1/2 cups sifted cake flour

•1 tbsp plus 1 tsp baking powder

•1/2 tsp salt

•1 cup vanilla-flavoured almond milk

•1 tsp vanilla extract

•1/2 tsp almond extract

•1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature

•1 1/3 cup sugar, divided

•8 large egg whites, room temperature

•1/2 tsp cream of tartar

•1/4 cup prepared almond paste, divided by tsp and rolled into balls

•White Frosting

•Sugar-Coated Almonds

Wash the bowl of the standing mixer, drying well to ensure no moisture or grease remains. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar in the standing mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 1/3 cup sugar, beating on high speed, until peaks are stiff but not dry. Use a rubber spatula to fold 1/4 of the egg whites into cake mixture in the large bowl. Then fold in the remaining egg white mixture until batter is well combined. Fill each cupcake liner halfway with batter and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and lightly place prepared

and/or nationally through the federal National Pollutant Release Inventory and therefore reporting to the City would be both a new cost and redundant. For retail bakers the proposed reporting requirement this would be costly as few if any have on staff the technical expertise required to comply with the proposed Environmental Reporting and Disclosure Program. BAC has estimated that such expertise from outside sources may well cost from $10,000 to $25,000 per bakery.

As of this publication date no decision regarding either the proposal or an exemption has been reported to BAC.

White Frosting:

•5 tbsp water

•1/4 tsp cream of tartar

•1 1/3 cups sugar

•2 large egg whites, room temperature

•1 tbsp light corn syrup

•1 tsp vanilla extract

Whisk together ingredients except vanilla extract in a large stainless steel bowl. Set the bowl in a wide, deep skillet filled with about 1 inch of simmering water. Make sure the water level is at least as high as the depth of the egg whites in the bowl. Beat the whites on low speed of a handheld mixer until the mixture reaches 140°F on an instant read thermometer. Do not stop beating while the bowl is in the skillet, or the egg whites may overcook. Beat on high speed for 5 minutes. Remove the bowl from the skillet and add vanilla extract. Beat on high speed for 2 to 3 more minutes to cool. Use within a few hours. Serve any leftover frosting as a dip for fresh fruit.

almond paste (teaspoonfuls rolled into balls) atop each cupcake, centred. Top with batter so the liner is 2/3-3/4 full. Bake until a tester comes out clean, 15 to 18 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, and move to a wire rack to

Sodium Working Group Meets

The Sodium Working Group established by Federal Health Minister Clement late last year held its first conference call meeting in late January. The baking industry is represented on the Working Group by BAC President and CEO Paul Hetherington. The purpose of the Working Group is to develop and oversee implementation of a strategy that would result in low-

ering the sodium content of the diets of Canadians to within the range recommended by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies (Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI) report for sodium). The strategy, developed over the coming year will be multi-staged and will be based on a three-pronged approach that will include education, voluntary reduction

of sodium levels in processed food products and foods sold in food service establishments, and research. According to the 2004 Canadian Community Health Survey, as many as 90% of men over the age of 19, and 65% of women, exceed Health Canada’s recommended sodium limit of 2,300 mg per day for adults.

cool completely. Prepare frosting and Sugar-Coated Almonds. Frost cupcakes and sprinkle with almonds. Serve.

Sugar-Coated Almonds

In an ungreased baking pan, roast 3 1/2 cups sliced almonds at 375°F for 10 minutes, turning pan and stirring halfway through baking time. Bring 1 cup sugar and 2 cups water to a boil in a large pan; add almonds and stir. Sugar will crystallize; keep stirring and then it will caramelize; remove from heat and spread almonds onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. When cool and dry, break up and sprinkle on top of cupcakes. Store any extra almonds in an airtight container. They are great for snacking, in popcorn or as a topping for ice cream.

Calgary Establishes Industry Advisory Committee for Trans Fat Regulation Implementation

Calgary Health Region has established a Market Advisory Committee to advise on the implementation of the Region’s initiative to reduce trans fat content of food items for use, service, sale and store within the region. At the Committee’s first meeting on Feb. 28, BAC President and CEO Paul Hetherington once again raised previously stated concerns regarding how the Region was going to implement the regulation when many issues remain unresolved including methodology to differentiate between natural occurring and processed trans fats, implications to low fat products which by their very nature are low in overall fat but may have a trans level higher than 5 per cent of total fat and implications to industries such as baking that may not have viable alternatives by the July 1, 2008 deadline. Representatives from Calgary Health Region expressed a desire to work with industry in order to address these outstanding issues. More meeting of the Committee are scheduled and further reports will be forthcoming.

WALNUTS ADD VALUE TO YOUR BAKED GOODS

CALIFORNIA WALNUT COMMISSION

BOOTH 1117

Walnuts are a nutrient-rich “superfood” that consumers see as a value-added offering. As one of the few foods that are nutritiously complete and good for the human body, walnuts are also the only nuts with a significant amount of omega-3 fatty-acids. Plump and crisp with a rich, nutty flavour, California walnuts add texture and taste to a wide variety of

baked goods. Proper storage is essential to ensure that your walnuts stay fresh and delicious. Be sure to store them in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to six months, or freeze walnuts for up to one year. For more information and recipes, visit www.walnutinfo.com.

Healthful Quantity Baking

In today’s health-conscious society, this book offers delicious and healthful alternatives to traditional “scratch” baked products without utilizing expensive sugar and fat substitutes or artificial ingredients. A multitude of healthful recipes, including classic desserts and pastries, have been reformulated for lower fat, sugar and sodium content and higher fibre content. Along with a wealth of illustrations and tables to aid readers in grasping the theoretical and practical ideas presented, the nutritional benefits of each recipe can be found listed in the appendix.

The Recipe Writer’s Handbook

Offering comprehensive guidance on the essential elements of the recipe-writing art, this useful reference provides complete and proven guidelines for recipe testing and writing, from format, syntax, spelling, and terminology to weights and measurements, and presentation.

All the essential material is here – enlarged and modernized – to make life easier for the professional and more helpful to the reader: an understanding of the art of recipe writing, codified instructions for the various parts of a recipe, resources, style rules, definitions of terms, measurements, equipment, even ethics.

Included in this new edition are instructions and metric measures for all English-language recipes, thus making this the global guide for recipe writers above and down under the equator. There is also attention to detail in an expanded style sheet, which has added sample recipes for children’s and food service/large quantity recipes.
