PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Manufacture of Bread, Biscuits, Biscuit
Powder, and other Bread Baked Goods.
I, JOHN WHITTAKER, of Back Lord Street, Halifax, in the County of York,
Baker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows :—
The object of my invention is to manufacture bread, biscuits, biscuit powder and
other bread baked goods so that they will be more nutritious than bread as at
present manufactured. It is well known that hypophosphite of calcium and
calcium hydrate are ingredients or properties necessary and good for the human
system and frequently prescribed by medical men. One or both of these medical
properties I propose to combine and blend with flour for the purpose of being made
into bread in various forms.
The following is an example of manufacturing the bread containing these
ingredients when making say, eight stones of bread, to do which I should add the
necessary quantity of Hour, together with seven gallons of milk, one ounce of
calcium hydrate mixed with one gallon of water, four ounces of hypophosphite of
calcium, and the usual amount of sugar, lard and yeast according to the judgement
and discretion of the baker; afterwards the whole is then kneaded and baked into
bread. If making biscuits and other fancy baked breads, the portion of hypo-
phosphite of calcium and calcium hydrate would be slightly increased, but I do not
limit myself to the exact proportions of ingredients numerated above as they may
be somewhat varied according to requirements, nor do I confine myself to use both
the above named ingredients, as the calcium hydrate may be omitted.
Dated this 16th day of September 1892.
