PROCESS OF, AND APPARATUS FOR, MOULDING CONFECTIONERY

摘要

With reference to the figure, a process for producing moulded confectionery items includes conveying liquid confectionery-filled moulds through a cabinet (70) providing a low temperature environment of between 0 DEG C and -196 DEG C so as to solidify at least the exterior of the deposited confectionery material, and then demoulding, (at 53), the resulting solidified item of confectionery. The low temperature environment is preferably provided by bringing the mould into contact with cryogenic material, such as liquid nitrogen.
