Abstract

The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for manufacturing moulded and coded confections, the method comprising the steps of: (i) depositing an edible material into cavities in a mould to produce moulded confections, the mould comprising two or more lanes of cavities; and (ii) providing each moulded confection with a code according to the identity of the edible material in the confection so as to produce moulded and coded confections; wherein each lane of cavities is associated with at least one single-lane depositor which deposits the edible material into the cavities in that lane only.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for making different molded and coded confectionery products in a single mould. The method comprises depositing edible material into cavities in a mould, to produce a molded confection, and providing said molded confection with a code for packaging at a later stage. Apparatus for performing the method is also provided. Background technique [0002] A typical manufacturing line for making molded confectionery such as chocolate chips employs molds that include cavities arranged in a plurality of columns and rows. The columns of cavities are aligned with the direction of line travel during molding. A typical mold includes 5-20 columns and 2-6 rows of cavities. [0003] Molded confectionery is produced by depositing confectionery material into each cavity in a particular row of moulds, using multi-column depositors. For this purpose, depositors are arranged above the mold and span the entire width of the mold. ...
