The word biscuit drives from Danis biscoctus which is Latin for twice cooked bread and refers to bread
rusks that were made for mariners (ships biscuits) from as long as the Middle Ages. A biscuit is a flour-
based baked food product. Biscuit found in Africa, Asia and Europe, which is typically hard, flat and
unleavened. In North America, a biscuit is typically a soft, leavened quick bread, and is covered in the
article Biscuit (bread). Biscuits in the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man and Ireland are hard and may be
savoury or sweet, such as Chocolate Biscuits, Digestives, Hobnobs, Ginger Nuts, Rich Tea, Bourbons,
and Custard Creams In the United States and some parts of English Canada, a "biscuit" is a quick bread,
somewhat similar to a scone, and usually unsweetened. Bakery industry is the one of the largest food
industries in India with an annual turnover about Rs3000 billion. The biscuit industry has been growing at an
average rate of 15% during the past 3 years and this is expected to be maintaining in coming years (IBMA,
2010).
The main ingredients for biscuit making are flours, sugars and fats. To these ingredients, various small
ingredients may be added for leavening, flavour and texture. The principle ingredient of biscuits is wheat
flour. Wheat flour contains proteins including gliadin and glutenin. In the presence of water, these proteins
combine to form gluten protein. The formation of the gluten, its strength and elasticity are largely
determined by the flour specification, recipe and mixing and forming processes. Starch is the main
component of wheat flour. It represents almost all of the carbohydrate content and around 80% of the total
energy content of wheat flour. Sugar gives sweetness, but it is also important in developing the texture of the
biscuit. Fats are a vitally important ingredient in achieving the texture, mouth feel and bite of the biscuit. The
fats are produced from good-quality crude oils by a process of refining, bleaching and deodorising.
Ammonium bicarbonate is a volatile salt, which is an effective leavening agent. When heated, it liberates
carbon dioxide, ammonia gas and water. Sodium bicarbonate is the most important aerating agent. When
heated, it reacts with acidic materials in the dough to release carbon dioxide and water.

PROCESSING
When the dough is been prepared from mixer, after that it has been held for some time before use. Then the dough is
transferred to the hopper from where different rollers start working on it convert the dough is converted into form of sheets
by applied pressure from different rollers. When the sheets are been formed, it is then cut into square type shape of equal
sides with the help of cutters. Then the cut sheets are placed one over other and again further pressure is applied on them
with help of rollers to convert the thickness of the dough sheet.
When the dough is passed from final rolled then it is passed through moulder where the sheets are been cut into
required shape and size according to the biscuit requirement. Then after cutting into desired shapes from moulder, it is
transferred to the baking oven, where different temperatures act on it and the biscuit is been baked and gets the required
taste and colour. After that, it is cooled on cooling belt and then packed into different packaging material.
