Abstract:
A method and apparatus for making a confectionery product. The method comprises depositing molten or semi-solid confectionery into a mould (23) and shaping the confectionery by applying a gas jet (36) thereto. The temperature of the gas jet (36) is lower than that of the molten confectionery. The confectionery may be chocolate. The system for shaping confectionery comprises a shaping apparatus (10) having a body (12). The body (12) comprises a gas inlet (14) and at least one depositor (16). The gas inlet (14) is in fluid communication with at least one gas outlet (18) for providing at least one gas jet. The at least one depositor (16) is for depositing confectionery and/or filling material.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the food industry, in particular to the confectionary manufacture, namely to the sweets and their production. The method of production of sweet comprises shell molding of chocolate or a chocolate or a confectionary glaze and of other masses with the use of a forming core, and filling the obtained shell with fillings of different kinds, wherein the forming core has cuts in the lower end forming barriers in the inner chamber of the shell, where each chamber formed by the barriers is provided with a filling. The shells are molded by immersing of a forming cores of the molds cooled to the temperature less than the crystallization temperature of a chocolate mass or a chocolate or a confectionary glaze, into a tank with tempered chocolate mass or a chocolate or a confectionary mass, the forming cores of the molds are held in the tank and extracted from the tank with further holding, the obtained shells are separated by compressed air. The shells may as well be molded by dosated pouring into the mold the tempered chocolate mass or a chocolate or a glaze mass or a toffee mass or a butter-scotch mass, by immersing into the mold of the forming core cooled to the temperature less than the crystallization temperature of a chocolate mass or a chocolate or a confectionary glaze mass, holding and extraction of the forming core from the mold and extraction of the obtained shell from the mold. The forming core used in this case can be made of frozen or hardened fillings of different kinds either entirely or only in its lower part. At such embodiment of the forming core the filling is contained in the shell already after its molding and for production of a sweet its lower parts are either cut off or removed. The sweet, produced in accordance with one of the abovementioned methods, contains a shell in the form of a container divided by barriers into two or more chambers and fillings of different kinds, disposed in the said chambers, which allows the consumer to define visually the kind of the filling in each shell chamber and thus provides free ingress to the particular kind of the filling at the consumer's choice.
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing a moulded confection, the apparatus comprising: a mould for retaining the confection therein; mould support means for retaining the mould, a mounting station for mounting the mould and drive means capable of imparting movement to the mould. Movement of the mould is responsive to drive imparted by the drive means and causes the confection to conform to the shape of an inside contour of the mould.
Abstract:
A method of producing a confectionery product is described. The confectionery product has an edible portion comprising a central element formed of a first flowable confectionery material (82), such as mallow, the central element being enrobed with a shell of a solid chocolate material (81). The product includes a stick (32) which enables the user to hold the product. The stick (32) lies partially within the first confectionery material (82) and is retained in position by the solid chocolate material (81). The position of the stick (32) is further strengthened through the solid chocolate shell extending within the first confectionery material (82) and coating a portion of the stick (32). The portion of the stick (32) within the confectionery product includes one or more holes (91) through and into which the chocolate shell flows, thereby gripping the stick more firmly. A method of producing a confectionery product is also described
Abstract:
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren und eine Anlage zur Herstellung eines gefüllten Verzehrgutes, insbesondere eines schalenartigen Verzehrgutes aus mindestens zwei verschiedenen Massen, von denen die erste eine Hülse bzw. Schale des Verzehrgutes und die zweite eine Füllung des Verzehrgutes bildet. Das Verfahren umfasst die folgenden Schritte: a) Herstellen einer Hülse, die eine Hülsenöffnung aufweist; b) Eindosieren einer Füllung über die Hülsenöffnung in die Hülse; und c) Auftragen eines Deckels auf die Hülsenöffnung, um die gefüllte Hülse zu schliessen. Das Eindosieren der Füllung gemäss Schritt b) und das Auftragen des Deckels gemäss Schritt c) erfolgen gleichzeitig in einem einzigen Verfahrensschritt. Bei der erfindungsgemässen Anlage sind die Mittel zum Eindosieren der Füllung und die Mittel zum Auftragen des Deckels gemeinsam und mit konstantem Abstand zueinander bewegbar.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to introducing decorative patterns or particulate inclusions to a portion of edible shells with a spinning device comprising an elongate spindle and an applicator device. Particulates or liquid coating materials are loaded in the applicator device, which is placed adjacent an inner surface of the edible shell or a hollow shell-shaped support, and the spindle and applicator device are spun at a rotational speed sufficient to dispense the particulates or liquid materials out of the applicator device against the inner surface of the shell or support. The present spinning applicator device can apply any kind of particulate inclusion(s) in a portion of a shell, and create visually distinctive patterns of particulates or liquid coating materials that adhere on the surfaces of a shell, and therefore maybe used to enhance texture, flavor, and/or appearance of a wide variety of confectionery products.
Abstract:

Erfindungsgemäss ist auf dem Grundkörper (2) mindestens ein weiteres, erhabenes Element (4) als Abstandhalter (5) zur Form (7) angeordnet.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of a confectionery composition and compositions producible by the process. The process comprises providing a first sheet (10) of edible film having a plurality of first recesses (12) therein and a second sheet (22) of edible film, optionally having a plurality of second recesses (24) therein. A liquid filling (18) is supplied to the first recesses (12) and then sealed between the first and second sheets (10, 22) to form capsules (26). Molten chocolate (14) may be applied to the first recesses and/or the second recesses before the liquid filling. The capsules may be placed in a chocolate shell.
