As global food demand continues to rise, the challenge lies in producing more while creating less food waste (https://bakerpedia.com/baked-wasted-food-waste-commercial-baking/). In the baking industry, embracing efficient production practices, ingredient optimization, and upcycling strategies can significantly minimize waste, enhance nutritional retention, and build a more resilient, sustainable food system.
