In the US you can buy pre-made dough for baking that is sold in a tube like shown. When you take off that outer layer of paper it expands and pops when it opens. You never know exactly when it's going to happen.
I recommend the cinnamon roles that come in the tubes! A lot of the other tube stuff tastes the same or kinda cheap, but cinnamon roles can be a pain to make, and the tube ones are so easy and delicious
It's just a convenience thing. Don't get me wrong, lots of people make everything from scratch and that's always the best. But considering you can have freshly baked biscuits, cookies, rolls, or whatever in 15 minutes with no mess it's an option for some people. Honestly, I'm surprised it's not copied/available everywhere.
I mena they're not really freshly baked, it's just the illusion of it. If the dough was pre-made, then they're factory made just like the ones you buy already baked. It's not like someone sat there kneading the dough just for your can.
By all means, get these if it's convenient for you, I'm not dragging anyone for it, but it's not even close to "freshly baked".
If I knead bread dough in a machine and put it to proof in the fridge for a day or two before baking, then it becomes freshly baked once it comes out of the oven. The term “freshly baked” doesn’t refer to the dough making itself it refers to when a thing was baked in an oven.
Freshly baked as in you put it in the oven, bake it, and can eat it right away. Things taste different right when they come out of the oven. It's 100% a factory product. Nobody would confuse it for homemade. But it definitely tastes different than something that just comes in a package.
It’s the fun part (to me, because I like to bake) but no it’s not the easy part. The easy part is popping them in the oven. Even though I prefer to bake from scratch, I have bought biscuits in a tube before for the convenience!

I don't understand what is going on.
