Abstract: An apparatus for depositing a confectionery mass comprising at least one discharge passageway extending to at least one elongate discharge outlet, wherein at least one discharge passageway diverges in a direction towards the discharge outlet, and a machine for producing a confectionery product having at least one such apparatus for depositing. In a method of producing a confectionery product, the confectionery mass is deposited as at least one strip having a width in the range of 5 to 500 mm and/or thickness in the range of 0.5 to 100 mm.

Abstract: A method of producing a confectionery product includes the steps of: a) depositing at least one confectionery mass by allowing it to flow into a mold, b) depositing at least one particulate material in and/or on the confectionery mass; and c) repeating at least step a) at least once.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of producing a molded confectionery product, comprising the steps of transferring a fat-containing confectionery mass and a water carrier, blending the fat-containing confectionery mass and the water carrier in a mixer to a substantially homogeneous blended mass, and depositing the blended mass in at least one mould or onto a conveyor belt. The present disclosure is characterized in that the above steps are performed within 60 seconds or less. The apparatus for producing a molded confectionery product of the present disclosure comprises channels for transferring of a fat-containing confectionery mass and a water carrier, a mixer for blending the fat-containing confectioner mass and the water carrier to a substantially homogeneous blended mass, and at least one mixing nozzle for depositing of the blended mass.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of producing aerated food products comprising the steps of introducing gas through at least one porous diffuser into a stream of food process medium so as to obtain a gas/food mixture and subjecting said gas/food process medium mixture to a blending operation in a static mixer. It also relates to products obtainable by this method.
