38:5 The bread of a Jew that was baked by a non-Jew is more problematic than the bread of a non-Jew. It would be prohibited as bishul akum (food cooked by a non-Jew) unless a Jew participated in the baking, such as by lighting the fire. One must therefore be careful when asking a non-Jewish baker to bake something of his that a Jew lights the oven or places the baking pan inside it.

38:6 Something that is not eaten raw and that is fit to be served to royalty may not be used if it has been cooked exclusively by a non-Jew. This is true even if he cooked it in a Jew’s house using the Jew’s utensils. However, if something is also eaten raw, or if it is not significant enough to serve to royalty, bishul akum presents no problem.
