The present invention provides refrigeratable yeast-leavened dough compositions and methods of making such doughs. The dough composition and the strain of yeast used therein are chosen to limit the total leavening action of the yeast by controlling the amount of substrate in the dough fermentable by the yeast. Dough compositions made in accordance with the invention are capable of being leavened at elevated temperatures, yet stored in a sealed container at refrigeration temperatures for extended periods of time. In one embodiment, a maltose negative yeast is used and sucrose or the like is added to the dough to serve as a fermentable substrate for the dough; this dough is suitable for storage times of up to 30 days or so. In a particularly useful embodiment which is suitable for even longer storage at refrigeration temperatures, the yeast used in the dough is substantially incapable of fermenting carbohydrates native to the dough and a predetermined quantity of a non-native carbohydrate fermentable by the yeast (e.g. galactose) is added to the dough to provide the desired amount of proofing.
