Bakers and candymakers cook up sweet treats and even sweeter profits using equipment specially designed for their unique cooking requirements. Bakery, candy and funnelcake equipment includes specialty fryers designed for frying or cooking doughnuts, funnelcakes and other foods that must float on the surface of the cooking medium. Bagels, pasta, chicken and fish are additional examples of foods that can be cooked in these fryers, using either oil or water. The fryers allow more surface area for floating food products. Also in this category are candy stoves which incorporate features not found on traditional ranges to accommodate the temperature, configuration, construction materials and large-batch production needs of candymaking.
