Baker’s Pride Inc. has announced the launch of its new, high-tech donut facility at the Mt. Pleasant Street Bakery, a Baker’s Pride company, in Burlington, Iowa.
The 65,000-sq.-ft., state-of-the-art facility uses innovative baking technology to produce mass quantities of donuts for in-store bakeries, the foodservice industry and convenience stores. The high-tech production line features blast freezer capabilities prior to being packaged frozen to ensure product integrity.
