Feed the Beast: Middleby Marshall CTX Oven Bakery Powerhouse

Bakeries are known to be high-output operations that deliver staples such as baguettes, croissants, cakes, pies, and maybe a dozen other types of bakery staples. With a bit of creativity and the right oven, though, they can become much more. The Middleby Marshall CTX Oven allows bakery operators to deliver a wider menu using less labor, all while promoting consistency of quality. Let’s explore the basics of these ovens through the lens of today’s commercial bakeries with tips from Middleby Marshall’s Regional VP Sales and Culinary, Andrew Ostrowski.
Satisfy Both Sweet and Savory Cravings
A bakery oven doesn’t just deliver sweets. Conveyor ovens like the Middleby Marshall CTX Oven are also great for savory dishes and menu items that require a consistent cooking process coupled with high, intense heat. This makes them ideal for items like pizza, which is one of the hallmark conveyor oven menu items. Operators can also consider foods like cornbread, pot pie, or even game day foods. After a great meal, there’s always room for dessert, of course. And with the accommodating conveyor belts on a Middleby Marshall CTX Oven, dessert is just as deliverable as a Neapolitan-style pizza. Vanilla cake is easy to deliver in a CTX Oven, and it’s even possible to cook crème brûlée.
Unlock Baking Potential with the Middleby Marshall CTX Oven
Equipped with four zones of independently controlled static heat, the Middleby Marshall CTX Oven provides an easy way to achieve great results every time, ensuring consistency and quality with everything cooked. This isn’t the only benefit, though. One of the primary advantages of the CTX Oven is its ability to streamline baking operations, whether for traditional recipes or high-volume production. By providing a perfect baking environment, units can maximize efficiency while upholding the highest quality standards.
With customizable heat zones and automated features, the CTX Oven can empower bakeries in ways that go beyond traditional ovens. At the same time, they can create a cooking cavity with dry, high heat that is so conducive to classic baking applications. Whether crafting a simple yellow cake or experimenting with intricate pastries, the CTX Oven offers unparalleled versatility and precision resulting from its vertical design and automated functionality.
Finally, one of the more profitable aspects of the Middleby Marshall CTX Oven is that it can increase throughput. With a cooking chamber that is consistently moving, operators can reload the oven with greater frequency, ultimately leading to higher profitability.
