The multifunctional units within the new Baker series are capable of freezing, thawing, storing, and temperature maintenance. Each also come equipped with eight pre-set programmes for easy setup, with the option for bakers to also customise bespoke settings as required.

Designed with the user at the heart, Hoshizaki’s intuitive touch-screen display interface is simple to use, and includes a convenient progress bar, to enable operators to plan ahead and monitor progress with ease.

Simon Frost, director at Hoshizaki UK & Ireland, said: “The European bakery market is worth over £180 billion, according to findings published by Bakery Assist, and is only projected to grow.

“To seamlessly cater to this growing demand, operators should consider investing in specialist equipment. Our new Baker range delivers exactly that, while benefitting from all the key features the rest of the Hoshizaki range boasts, making us a leading cold-solution expert.

“Thanks to its multifunction capabilities, the units are a great solution to save space, compared to having one dedicated piece of kit for each stage of bakery journey. This makes it particularly appealing for smaller businesses looking to capitalise on the continued trend for baked goods.”

Boasting a Climate Class five rating, the Baker series is capable of operating efficiently in ambient temperatures of up to +40°C.

Combined with key features such as an auto-closing door, and smart air distribution to ensure temperature recovery despite frequent door openings, operators can start making a return on their investment straight away. For more information on Hoshizaki, visit: www.hoshizaki.com
