Abstract: A foodstuff, and a method and system of making the same, comprises a biscuit having a generally planar top surface and a generally planar bottom surface. The biscuit includes first indicia on the top surface that has a plurality of projections that extend from the top surface. The biscuit also includes second indicia on the bottom surface that has an imprint recessed from the bottom surface.

Abstract: A shelf-stable, filled, baked crispy snack which possesses a crispy textured casing and a moist, soft textured filling over a prolonged period of time is obtained by formulating a casing which when baked has a high glass temperature (Tg) at a high moisture content. Increasing the degree of starch gelatinization to increase the Tg may be achieved during baking and by the addition of a pregelatinized starch. The high Tg baked casing permits the use of a high moisture content filler in high amounts to provide a shelf-stable substantial textural dichotomy in the filled, baked, crispy snack. The filled, baked snack exhibits an unexpectedly high resistance to deformation or peak force at high baked casing moisture contents. The baked snack is ready-to-eat out of the packaging and does not have to be toasted, microwaved or further baked, cooked, or heated for consumption, or to achieve a crisp textured casing.
