Application

This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to coordinate baking operations in a commercial baking environment.

This unit applies to individuals who apply a broad range of specialised knowledge and skills with responsibility for their own work and limited responsibility for the output of others in a team. This includes applying and communicating non-routine technical solutions to predictable and unpredictable problems.

All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, in accordance with State/Territory food safety, and work health and safety, regulations and legislation that apply to the workplace.

No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Performance Evidence

An individual demonstrating competency in this unit must satisfy all of the elements and performance criteria of this unit.

There must be evidence that the individual has coordinated baking operations, including:

  • coordinating at least one of the following four baking operations:
  • bread production process
  • cake production process
  • pastry production process
  • combination of any of the above three bakery production processes
  • coordinating at least two of the following seven baked product ranges:
  • decorated products
  • post-bake decorated products
  • retarded yeast goods
  • frozen bakery goods
  • fresh baked bakery goods
  • packaged bakery goods
  • unpackaged bakery goods
  • developing and documenting a production schedule that includes:
  • a logical sequence of bakery production processes
  • an accurate estimation of required ingredient and equipment resources to satisfy production volumes, allowing for 5% maximum product wastage
  • specification of the plant, labour and material inputs
  • specification of the finished products outputs
  • matching the required volume of production to the existing resources
  • developing and documenting a preparation list, including consideration of:
  • pre-preparation of ingredients
  • pre-preparation of fillings
  • pre-preparation of finishings
  • pre-preparation of equipment

  • stock levels required for production
  • special agreements with suppliers of stock
  • stock delivery constraints
  • preparing recipes for production, including:
  • master recipes adjusted for volume
  • processing requirements of the products
  • special considerations for time, temperature and special dietary needs
  • equipment required
