<p>The invention relates to a method and a system for the production of shells of fat-containing chocolate-like mass, whereby an amount of liquid mass is deposited into a mould cavity. The mould cavity containing the liquid mass is transported into a moulding chamber (12) where an associated core member is immersed into the mass to determine the shape of the chocolate article. The temperature of the core member is controlled and the time of immersion into the mass is set to a predetermined time after which the core member is lifted clear of the mass. Inside the moulding chamber, air is being moved to render the atmosphere controllable. In a preferred embodiment the chamber is sealed effectively from the surrounding atmosphere, by maintaining an overpressure inside said chamber compared to the surroundings.</p> |
