Depanning, Packaging and Labeling
The fruitcakes have to be removed from their baking
pans. All cakes must be shrink wrapped, properly labeled and
boxed for storage or shipping.
After the fruitcakes are cool they are ready to be depanned.
They are removed from the cooling racks and tapped gently on
their side to loosen them from the baking pan. They are
then placed on cake circles and then on bun pans ready to be packaged.

The
cooled and depanned cakes are processed through a shrink
wrap machine to seal them from moisture loss and prepare them to
be placed in a gift tin or box. The Shrink Wrap Machine
seals the cakes in an air tight, see-through plastic wrap.




After
they are packaged, each cake must be labeled as to its correct
size and place of manufacture. We keep thousands of labels
for this purpose in varying weight registrations. Once
this is done the pecan fruitcakes are ready to be boxed for
storage or shipping. This finishes the baking process as
the fruitcakes go into cold storage to mellow and flavor blend
in preparation for shipping or sale.
