Custom Mixes and Bases

What are they?

Bakery mixes are blends of ingredients like flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder designed to simplify a bakery’s operation providing a consistent and reliable base for a wide variety of baked goods. Our custom mixes and bases are specifically formulated to your needs, and unique to your bakery. Custom mixes ensure consistency in taste and texture, reduce preparation time, and minimize the risk of errors in ingredient measurement. Blendtek also offers a variety of proprietary bakery mixes, including red velvet cake mix, vanilla cake mix, devil’s cake mix and pancake mix, but we love designing custom blends specific for your business. Products can be ready-to-use mixes or specialty premixes and concentrates.

Who uses them?

Custom bakery mixes and bases can be used by different types of companies in the food industry:

Foodservice - restaurants and retail bakeries looking to standardize their offering across a number of locations, while differentiating from the competition, would benefit from using a custom mix
Industrial bakeries - companies may wish to improve their operations by creating a custom mix that simplifies their process. For example, blending a small number of ingredients used in the same ratio in multiple finished products. Or bakeries making cakes and other desserts looking to focus on the preparation and decoration of the cakes rather than blending all the dry ingredients first.
Brands and Retailers - we can contract manufacture products for your brand or private label program in retail-ready stand up pouches or for your in-store bakeries.

Variations and Selection Criteria

There are endless ways to customize your custom mixes. Some factors to consider:

Recipe - What recipe are you looking for? Do you have your own recipe or would you like one of ours? Or do you need one developed?
Allergens - we process some allergens in our facility. What are the requirements of your product and is it compatible with our allergen program?
Ingredient limitations - are you formulating something that is “clean label”? What does that mean to you?
Packaging - do you need totes, bags or pouches? Or other formats?
Quantity - does your project align with Blendtek’s minimum order quantities?
Certifications - Blendtek is SQF certified, Kosher certified and Organic certified.
