Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of food technology, and specifically to a nutty gold truffle chocolate with a three - layer sandwich structure and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Traditional truffle chocolates usually have a single - layer or double - layer structure, with relatively single taste and flavor. With the continuous improvement of consumers' requirements for food quality and taste, developing chocolate products with richer layers and unique tastes has become a market demand.
[0003] Currently, although there are some sandwich chocolates on the market, there are still deficiencies in the design of the sandwich structure and the taste combination. For example, the layers of some sandwich chocolates are not distinct enough, or the integration of nuts and chocolate is not good, unable to bring consumers a good taste experience. In addition, the existing chocolate preparation methods are not precise enough in process control, resulting in unstable product quality and difficulty in achieving large - scale industrial production. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of nutty gold truffle chocolate with a unique structure and excellent taste and its efficient preparation method. Summary of the Invention
[0004] (1) Technical Problems to be Solved

During this period, the baking oven rotates at a constant speed of 10 - 15 r / min. After baking is completed, quickly transfer the cocoa beans to an air-cooling device and cool them in a cold air environment of 15 - 20 °C for 5 - 8 minutes; A6. Use a large grinding machine to grind the cooled and screened cocoa beans into cocoa mass, then send the coarsely ground cocoa mass into a refining machine, add granulated sugar, and the mass ratio of cocoa mass to granulated sugar is about 7:
3. The refining machine stirs and grinds continuously at 60 - 70 °C at a rotation speed of 60 - 80 r / min for 2 - 3 days, and keeps warm at 30 - 40 °C to obtain the outer layer of chocolate.
3. A nut and golden truffle chocolate with a three-layer sandwich structure according to claim 1, characterized in that, The preparation method of the middle layer of filling includes the following steps: B1. Prepare 100 - 200 parts of baguette bread, 30 - 50 parts of nuts, 20 - 30 parts of butter, 10 - 20 parts of vegetable oil, 5 - 10 parts of granulated sugar, and 0.5 - 1 part of salt; B2. Cut the baguette bread into uniform filaments of 10 - 15 mm, spread them flat on a baking tray, put in the butter, place them in an oven preheated to 150 - 180 °C, bake for 10 - 15 minutes, and cool to room temperature to obtain the bread shreds for standby; B3. Spread the nuts flat on a baking tray, place them in an oven preheated to 160 - 180 °C and bake for 8 - 10 minutes, cool to room temperature, pour them into a wall-breaking machine, turn on the high-speed stirring mode, gradually add vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and salt during the stirring process, stir for 10 - 15 minutes, then pour them into a sterilized glass bottle, put it in boiling water and boil for 5 - 10 minutes, and cool to room temperature to obtain the nut paste for standby; B4. Pour the shredded bread into the nut butter, stir slowly for 10 - 20 minutes until the surface of the shredded bread is evenly coated with the nut butter. Seal and store at room temperature to avoid solidification, obtaining the middle layer for later use.
4. A nut and golden truffle chocolate having a three-layer sandwich structure according to claim 3, wherein, The nut is one of pistachio, almond, and walnut.
5. A nut and golden truffle chocolate having a three-layer sandwich structure according to claim 3, wherein, The vegetable oil is one of olive oil, coconut oil, and peanut oil.
6. The nut golden truffle chocolate with a three-layer sandwich structure according to claim 1, characterized in that, The preparation method of the inner layer filling includes the following steps: C1. Prepare 10 - 20 parts of black truffle powder, 15 - 30 parts of light cream, 5 - 10 parts of butter, 8 - 12 parts of jam, 20 - 30 parts of caster sugar, 1 - 2 parts of salt, and 10 - 15 parts of brandy. C2. Pour the light cream into a clean pot, heat it over low heat until it boils slightly, add the butter, and continue to stir until the butter melts completely. Add the black truffle powder, jam, caster sugar, and salt to the pot, keep the low heat, and stir continuously. Keep stirring and boiling for about 10 - 15 minutes, stirring constantly during this period to avoid sticking to the pot. After the sauce is boiled to the appropriate consistency, turn off the heat and add the brandy, then stir quickly and evenly. C3. Pour the cooked truffle sauce into a clean container with a diameter of 10 mm, cover it with plastic wrap, cool it to room temperature, and then put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration to make the truffle sauce solidify further for later use as the inner layer filling.
7. A nut and golden truffle chocolate having a three-layer sandwich structure according to claim 6, wherein, The jam is one of strawberry jam, blueberry jam, and raspberry jam.
8. A preparation method of a nut and golden truffle chocolate with a three-layer sandwich structure according to any one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that, It includes the following steps: S1. Equip the end of the robotic arm with a vacuum adsorption fixture, precisely grasp the frozen and shaped inner layer filling, place it vertically above the center of the middle layer filling, and the robotic arm slowly presses down the inner layer filling at a speed of 0.2 - 0.5 mm / s, making it embed into the middle layer filling about 3 - 5 mm deep to form a stable nested structure. After the combination is completed, transfer the whole mold to a refrigeration platform at 0 - -5°C. S2. Narrow the outlet width of the chocolate curtain coater to 30 mm, reduce the coating speed to 0.4 - 0.6 m / min. At the same time, add a lateral auxiliary nozzle under the curtain coater to perform secondary coating on the parts where the sauce filling is likely to leak. S3. The air-cooled tunnel adopts a segmented temperature control design. The temperature of the inlet section is set at 15 - 18°C and the wind speed is 2 - 4 m / s; the temperature of the middle section is reduced to 10 - 12°C and the wind speed is 1.5 - 1.8 m / s; the temperature of the outlet section rises to 18 - 20°C and the wind speed is 1 - 2 m / s. After cooling and solidification, the nut golden truffle chocolate with a three-layer sandwich structure is obtained.
