The 5 elements of influence to perfect balance.
Every baker wants to have perfectly released products, it not only sells better, but it also prevents you from food waste. For obtaining the best result, you need to find a balance between all the elements.
1. The influence of production process.
Using a release agent can improve your production process, but it is also important to consider some factors of your baking process when choosing the right one. Our Carlo® release agents consist of an emulsion, a mixture of water and oil. When freezing is involved in your process, the presence of water might be an issue. Replacing Carlo® by Carlex® is then the solution.

When selecting a release agent, it is crucial to consider the recipe of your baked goods. The more sugar the recipe contains, the stickier the batter is and therefore the more release power is needed.
