Process for producing frozen particles

摘要

A process for preparing frozen particles having an average diameter of from 1 to 10mm and comprising from 1 to 50 wt% of a frozen aqueous core and from 50 to 99 wt% of a fat-based shell is provided, the process comprising: providing a dispensing device having an inner nozzle (4) and an outer nozzle (3) which surrounds the inner nozzle (4); supplying an aqueous mix (2) to the inner nozzle (4) and a fat-based mix (1) to the outer nozzle (3), thereby forming particles with a water-continuous core (8) and a fat-continuous shell (7), and then dropping the particles into a refrigerant (9).
