Par Bake Systems

Product Consistency, Shelf Life, and Final Bake Finish

At Casa Herrera, we design and build Par Bake Systems that give flatbread producers greater control over product consistency, shelf life, and final bake finish. Our par bake equipment is engineered to partially cook tortillas and related products to an optimal level—perfect for freezing, packaging, or final baking at a later stage.

Whether you serve foodservice distributors, supply retail stores, or run a central kitchen, our Par Bake solutions help streamline your operations without compromising taste or texture. A dedicated par bake tortilla line may be set with a press feeding a cooler directly or the process can be done in a combo line with a combo oven to run bake and par bake tortillas on the same line.

What Is Par Baking?

Par baking is the process of partially cooking a dough product just long enough to set its structure without finishing the full bake. This method offers greater flexibility in packaging, distribution, and on-demand final baking, ensuring warm, freshly finished products when and where they’re needed.
