The Two loaves were kneaded one at a time and baked one at a time. The Panim bread were kneaded one at a time and baked two at a time. They were made in a mold and when he took them out of the oven he would place them in a mold so they wouldn't spoil.

Both the Two Loaves and the Panim bread, were kneaded and molded outside the temple but baked inside the temple and they do not override Shabbat. Rabbi Yehuda says the entire process took place inside the courtyard. Rabbi Shimon says, one should accustom himself to say, the Two Loaves and the Panim Bread are valid in the courtyard and in the house of Pagi [which was outside the temple].

חֲבִתֵּי כֹהֵן גָּדוֹל, לִישָׁתָן וַעֲרִיכָתָן וַאֲפִיָּתָן בִּפְנִים, וְדוֹחוֹת אֶת הַשַּׁבָּת. טִחוּנָן וְהֶרְקֵדָן אֵינָן דּוֹחוֹת אֶת הַשַּׁבָּת. כְּלָל אָמַר רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא, כָּל מְלָאכָה שֶׁאֶפְשָׁר לָהּ לֵעָשׂוֹת מֵעֶרֶב שַׁבָּת, אֵינָה דּוֹחָה אֶת הַשַּׁבָּת. וְשֶׁאִי אֶפְשָׁר לָהּ לֵעָשׂוֹת מֵעֶרֶב שַׁבָּת, דּוֹחָה אֶת הַשַּׁבָּת:

The high priest's cakes were kneaded formed and baked inside the temple courtyard and they override Shabbat. Their grinding and sifting do not override the Shabbat. Rabbi Akiva said a general rule: Anything which can be done before Shabbat does not override the Shabbat, and whatever cannot be done before the Shabbat does override the Shabbat.

כָּל הַמְּנָחוֹת יֵשׁ בָּהֶן מַעֲשֵׂה כְלִי בִּפְנִים, וְאֵין בָּהֶן מַעֲשֵׂה כְלִי בַחוּץ. כֵּיצַד. שְׁתֵּי הַלֶּחֶם אָרְכָּן שִׁבְעָה וְרָחְבָּן אַרְבָּעָה, וְקַרְנוֹתֵיהֶן אַרְבַּע אֶצְבָּעוֹת. לֶחֶם הַפָּנִים, אָרְכָּן עֲשָׂרָה וְרָחְבָּן חֲמִשָּׁה, וְקַרְנוֹתָיו שֶׁבַע אֶצְבָּעוֹת. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, שֶׁלֹּא תִטְעֶה, זד"ד יה"ז. בֶּן זוֹמָא אוֹמֵר, וְנָתַתָּ עַל הַשֻּׁלְחָן לֶחֶם פָּנִים לְפָנַי תָּמִיד, שֶׁיְּהֵא לוֹ פָנִים:

All flour offerings require a vessel while inside the courtyard but not while outside. How so? The Two Loaves, were seven fists long, four fists wide and their horns were four fingers tall. The Panim Bread was ten fists long, five fists wide and its horns were seven fingers. Rabbi Yehuda said, so one should not err, ZaDad Yehaz [the numeric value of the hebrew letters is 7,4,4 and 10,5,7]. Ben Zoma says "and you shall place on the table Panim bread always" that it must have faces.

The table: its length was ten handbreadths and its width, five ; the showbread its length was ten handbreadths and its width five . He would place its long side across the breadth of the table, and he would fold up two and a half handbreadths on this side and two and half on this side so that its length filled the entire breadth of the table, the words of Rabbi Judah. Rabbi Meir says: the table: its length was twelve handbreadths and its width six ; the showbread its length was ten handbreadths and its width five . He would place its long sided across the breadth of the table, and he would fold up two handbreadths on this side and two on this side ; and there was a space of two handbreadths between [the two sets] so that the wind could blow between them. Abba Shaul says: there they used to put the two dishes of frankincense for the showbread. They said to him: Has it not already been said, “And you shall put pure frankincense upon [al] each row” (Leviticus 24:7)? He replied, But has it not also been said, “And next unto [al] him shall be the tribe of Manasseh” (Numbers 2:20)?

There were four golden attachments there split at the top and they would support two rods for one stack and two rods for the other. And there were 28 reeds like half a hollow reed fourteen for one stack and fourteen for the other. Neither the arrangement of the reeds or their removal override Shabbat rather he goes in on Friday and take them out and places them lengthwise across the table. All of the vessels in the temple were placed lengthwise with the length of the Sanctuary.

There were two tables in the anti-chamber at the entrance to the Sanctuary, one was made of marble and the other of gold. The one of marble is where they would place the Panim-bread on its way into the sanctuary and on the gold one as it left, because we go up in sanctity and not down. And there was one gold one inside where the Panim bread would be left always. Four priests would enter. Two of them had the two stacks and the other two had two spoons. Four would walk before them, two to take the two stacks and two to take the two spoons. The ones bringing in bread would stand in the north side and face south and those taking out bread would stand in the south and face north. These would take out as those would place down a fistful removing against a fistful placing as it says (Exodus 25) "before me always". Rabbi Yossi says, even if these completely pulled it off before these put down the new stack is considered constantly. They would leave and place [the bread] on the golden table in the anti-chamber. Once they offered the spoons [of frankincense] the bread would be given out to the priests. If Yom Kippur fell on Shabbat, the bread would be given out that night. If Yom Kippur was on Friday, the goat of Yom Kippur is eaten that night. The Babylonians would eat it raw because they were not timid about eating raw meat.

If he arranged the bread on Shabbat and the spoons after Shabbat, but he offered the spoons on the following Shabbat it is invalid, and it is not subject to piggul, being left past its time or touching it while impure. If he arranged the bread and the spoons on Shabbat but offered the spoons after the following Shabbat it is invalid, and it is not subject to piggul, being left past its time or touching it while impure. If he arranged the bread and the spoons after Shabbat but offered the spoons on the following Shabbat it is invalid. How should he do it? He should leave it to the following Shabbat because even if it is on the table for many days, there is nothing wrong.
