The fully baked bread is prepared from dough comprising, in baker's percentages, about 100 pounds flour, about 0.75 to about 3.5 pounds salt, about 0.2 to about 1 pounds microbial inhibitor, about 0 to about 3 pounds gluten, about 1 to about 5 pounds leavening agent, about 0.1 to about 1 pound enzyme, about 9 to 18 pounds high fructose corn syrup, about 3 to about 10 pounds shortening, about 0.1 to about 3 pounds mono- and diglycerides, and about 45 to about 60 pounds of water.
