[0002] Jelly refers to a gelatinous food made primarily from water and sugar, supplemented with food additives such as thickeners, and with or without the addition of fruit and vegetable products, milk, or dairy products. It is processed through steps such as sol-gel, mixing, filling, sterilization, and cooling. It is characterized by its crystal-clear appearance, bright color, and soft and smooth texture, and is very popular among consumers as a snack food.
[0003] Chinese patent document (CN103719650A) discloses a caramel mango flavored double-layer mousse jelly.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The caramel-flavored pudding production process of this invention includes the preparation of an upper layer liquid and a lower layer liquid. During filling, the filling temperature of the lower layer liquid is strictly controlled to be lower than that of the upper layer liquid.

The lower layer liquid contains acetylated distarch phosphate, and the surface of the crispy boba and coconut jelly is coated with acetylated distarch phosphate. Standing at the same temperature as the upper layer liquid allows the acetylated distarch phosphate to gelatinize. Then, cooling forms a thermally irreversible gel, achieving controllable content positioning. Simultaneously, the upper layer liquid contains potassium salts while the lower layer liquid does not. During the initial filling and standing of the upper layer liquid, the potassium salts diffuse downwards, creating an ion gradient, while the lower layer liquid is less abundant. After sterilization and cooling, an interpenetrating network gel is formed between the upper and lower layers and the contents. Finally, an interpenetrating network is formed at the interface between the upper and lower layers and the contents, resulting in a natural transition in texture. Detailed Implementation Example 1
