    International audienceThe collapse of the sides of sliced bread is a technological problem for the baking industry. This study aims to understand the possible link between bread structures, internal pressure gradient, waiting time in the pan before depanning, and side collapse. The collapse variation was measured using laser to get bread profiles, and using image analysis of bread slices. The pressure variation at the centre and at the periphery was measured, and the product structure was observed using X-ray microtomography. The collapse increases with the cooling time in pan. The pressure in the cells is always higher than pressure in ambiance and cannot explain the collapse. The bread structure measurements indicate that the collapse is probably due to the cells shrinking of bread sides cells. A complementary explanation is to be searched in the specific volume variation of the material constituting the dough and the bread during the baking and the cooling
