Bakels Digestive Crumb 10kg for Cheesecake and Dessert Bases


Bakels Digestive Crumb 10kg is a ready-to-use digestive biscuit crumb for quick, consistent dessert bases. It gives you the flavour and crunch of classic digestive biscuits without the labour of crushing whole biscuits. The fine, even crumb presses neatly into tins and trays and is designed for commercial use in bakeries, dessert parlours and production kitchens.

This bulk bag is a good fit if you make a lot of cheesecakes, tarts or traybakes and want a base that behaves the same way every time. It is listed as vegan suitable and vegetarian, so it can support plant-based lines when paired with suitable fats and fillings. Because it’s a plain digestive-style crumb, it works with everything from light fruit cheesecakes to richer chocolate and caramel desserts.

Bakels Digestive Crumb also sits neatly alongside other Bakels ingredients and Sephra products, so you can use it as a core component across your dessert range rather than a single-purpose item.



Biscuit Bases for Cheesecakes, Traybakes and Millionaires-Style Desserts


Bakels Digestive Crumb is designed for any dessert that starts with a biscuit base, whether baked or chilled. It suits baked or chilled cheesecakes, tarts, pies, fridge cakes and dessert bars. The digestive flavour pairs well with cream cheese, chocolate, caramel and fruit, so you can use the same crumb across multiple recipes and formats.

It also makes a reliable base for millionaires-style products. Once formed into a biscuit layer, it works well under Bakels Millionaires Caramel and a chocolate topping made with Sephra Belgian chocolate or Sephra chocolate flavoured compound melts. That gives you a simple, repeatable format for millionaires shortbread and caramel slices using ingredients you may already carry.



Toppings and Texture for Waffles, Ice Cream and Desserts


Beyond bases, Bakels Digestive Crumb works well as a topping and texture add-in. You can use it wherever you want a biscuit crunch without baking extra products.

Some ideas include:

• Sprinkled over waffles with soft serve or scooped ice cream
• As a topping on ice cream sundaes, freakshakes and dessert pots
• Around the sides or top of cheesecake slices and mousse glasses
• Mixed into fridge cakes and layered bars for extra texture

With one product you can cover bases, toppings and inclusions, helping you reuse stock across cheesecakes, traybakes, waffles and ice cream-based desserts.



How to Use Bakels Digestive Crumb 10kg


Bakels Digestive Crumb is simple to work with. Place the required amount of crumb in a mixing bowl, then add melted butter or margarine. As a general starting point, a ratio of 1.000kg crumb to 0.200kg fat (100:20) is suggested, but you can adjust this to suit your preferred texture. Mix for a few minutes until the fat is evenly distributed and the crumb looks like damp sand.

Tip the mixture into a lined tin, ring or tray, then press down firmly with the back of a spoon or a flat tool to create an even base. For baked bases, bake until set and lightly coloured, then allow to cool before adding fillings. For chilled cheesecakes and fridge desserts, you can chill the base to set without baking, depending on your recipe and food safety approach.

Bakels Digestive Crumb is also suitable for layered desserts and crumble-style toppings. You can combine it with nuts, sugar or spices to create your own mixes, or use it as a simple decorative crumb around cake sides and dessert edges.
