Abstract
Baked products, bread, cakes, cookies, pies, and other such items have had a long and interesting history. It is quite likely that the ancient Egyptians were the first to discover leavening action involving (unknown to them) yeast and then to improve their bread by using the leavening process. While their method for making bread was rather advanced, their knowledge of the scientific principles explaining this process was doubtlessly small.
