Calcium Propionate

I normally use calcium propionate for extended shelf life problems. I am a packed doughnuts manufacturer, and I have a problem managing my shelf life. Regarding mold on our product, I need some halal/vegan preservatives to extend my shelf life from 3-10 days. I am using yeast, baking powder, eggs, salt, and butter as an ingredients. Some authentic solutions would be highly appreciated.



Best Answer

I have experience with a few natural options such as Bred-Mate, Bro-Lite and MoisturLok, but I doubt that any of those will get you as much shelf life as calpro will. MoisturLok and Brolite both have formulations for sweet goods, and I did have luck getting yeast breads to have a 7+-day shelf life with Bro-Lite.

If you have access to it, I'd recommend just getting halal calpro, as that's going to have the longest shelf-life by far.

What preservatives are used in doughnuts?

Donut shop donuts are usually made without any preservatives. That means that they will dry out and the fat used to fry them will go rancid pretty quickly.

What is the best way to preserve donuts?

Shipley Donuts recommends covering the donuts in foil or plastic wrap, or even better, sealing them in a plastic bag or container. If stored properly, they should keep three to four days in the fridge, and up to three months in the freezer.

How do you increase the shelf life of a donut?

In products like breads, cakes and doughnuts, gums improve shelf life by improving moisture retention. Types such as gum acacia and carboxymethylcellulose can be used to retain moisture in breads and increase shelf life at levels of 1% to 2% based on flour.

How do you preserve donut dough?

FREEZING: You can freeze both the dough and the fried, unglazed doughnuts. For the dough, cut out the doughnuts, let them proof (along with any scraps), place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze until solid, then store in the freezer in plastic zip-top bags.

Answer 2

King Arthur Flour sells a "cake enhancer" that extends shelf life by a few days. It works just as well in breads and other baked goods. The enhancer is gluten free, vegetarian, and Kosher.
