摘要

A process is disclosed for producing a vitreous molten mass from sweeteners by means of an extruder, in particular a double screw extruder. The sweetener is introduced into an inlet zone (110) of the extruder (100), is extruded in a melting zone (120) at an increased temperature, in a vacuum zone (130) at a reduced pressure and increased temperature, and finally in a cooling zone (140) at a reduced temperature, forming a vitreous molten mass.
