[0002] Chocolate is a sweet food made from cocoa beans and widely used in snacks, desserts, and beverages. Its production process involves multiple steps, from harvesting the cocoa beans to processing the final product.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN215123988U discloses a chocolate production and processing pouring and molding machine that facilitates unloading. This patented technology improves the existing technology, which still requires the use of a release agent during actual use, which affects the chocolate's taste and is also expensive. By using a food-grade silicone mold, the chocolate can be directly ejected through a demoulding device after low-temperature cooling and shaping, without adhering to the mold surface. This eliminates the need for a release agent, effectively ensuring product quality and flavor, while also reducing production costs and improving economic benefits to a certain extent.

[0004] However, when the chocolate is demolded, it needs to be in a solidified state. The molten chocolate is in a liquid state after pouring, which makes it difficult for personnel to demold it. Although a temperature control device is provided for cooling, the device lowers the temperature of the workroom. This temperature control method is inefficient and consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, it still has certain shortcomings in actual use.
