Chocolate bars are popular snacks and gifts for many occasions and events, dating back to the Mayans and the Aztecs. They may also include other ingredients such as caramel, fruits, or nuts. Considering making chocolate bars? Make sure, though, that your chocolate bar making equipment can cover various processes such as grinding and melting, tempering, refining, and cooling.

To make a good marshmallow, you need to get the air straight. With it, proper marshmallow manufacturing equipment and a few ingredients - categorized into sweeteners and emulsifying agents, like gelatin – help you achieve flavor. Popular around the world, the marshmallow market size reached $319.8 million in the US and Canada.

Licorice is a glossy candy with firm consistency that can have different flavors, like chocolate, cherry and strawberry. With the right licorice making equipment, start by making a paste from the licorice roots, mixing them with sugar, flour and sweeteners. Extrude it with a nuzzle, allowing to cool, then cut and package it.

Gummy bears are iconic confectioneries known for their playful shapes and fruity flavors. They have gained immense popularity worldwide due to their versatility and appeal to a wide variety of tastes. In addition to being delicious, gummy bears are also easy to produce, particularly in small quantities. For medium to large-scale production of gummies, there is a multitude of gummy manufacturing equipment to help ensure that you end up with a good product.

Nougat is a delicious confection that contains lots of nuts and dried fruits. The word “nougat” itself derives from an old Latin word for nuts. In addition to nuts, the white variety of nougat contains egg whites, honey, and sugar. Similar ingredients make brown nougat variations, except caramelized sugar replaces egg whites as the base ingredient. Depending on your intended scale of production, there are quite a few nougat making equipment you should consider getting.

Gummies make everything more colorful. The squishy droplets make a tasty and practical carrier of special ingredients such as CBD oil. Chewing the gum increases the bioavailability of the substance as opposed to vaping. But before the cannabidiol can take effect, it must first be processed through a line of CBD gummy equipment.

Aerators are devices used for mixing air (oxygen transfer) with a liquid such as water or oil to form a homogeneous product. Selecting an industrial aeration system involves choosing a suitable mixing head and considering the desired input and output flows, temperature, level of aeration, properties of the liquid phase, and the degree of automation and pressure control. Aerators are used in the food industry for the production of fat-based center masses and crèmes and in the chemical industry for wastewater treatment. When it comes to water treatment, surface aerators are most commonly used.

Aeration

Industrial mixing equipment is used to combine two or more solid, liquid or gaseous segregated ingredients into a homogenous single product. The choice of mixing technology depends largely on the physical state of the ingredients and the desired final product. But the sensitivity of the ingredients, the process temperature, and pressure requirements are also critical factors. All these parameters result in a wide range of industrial mixers.

Mixing

To make candy, all you need to do is create a syrup by dissolving sugar and boiling it to your desired consistency. For medium to large scale candy production, candy making equipment fully automates the whole process and takes care of other production regulations and standards (such as hygiene and proper homogenization). Planning on getting one? There’s a wide range of choices to pick from.

You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy chocolate; that’s basically the same thing. We were not surprised to discover that chocolate - to be specific, cocoa beans – was so valuable that it was used as a currency in Mayan times. When making chocolate, cocoa beans need to be dried, fermented, and roasted before using chocolate making equipment to turn them into your favorite chocolate product.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

Fruit pulp is a mass of pressed fresh fruit not meant for immediate consumption. Production of fruit pulp avoids wasting food and preserves the flavors and nutrient value of the fruit product. Processed fruit pulp is an ingredient in beverages, sauces, baby foods, jellies, smoothies, and bakery products.

Tradition and manufacturing procedures dictate the distinction between fruit juice, puree, and pulp. Still, naming and labeling are complex and depend on regulations, type of fruit, texture, consistency, preservation methods, and sugar or solid content (measured in Degrees Brix). Depending on your desired output, there are various fruit pulper machines for different stages of production that make the process quicker and more efficient.

Gummies, a staple in the confectionery industry, can come in various forms, such as gummy bears, vitamin gummies, heart-shaped jellies, and many more mouth-watering alternatives. They are manufactured using specialized equipment for mixing, molding, coating, and packaging. From precise mixers to efficient packaging lines, industrial gummy production relies on a range of equipment to ensure consistent quality and meet consumer demand worldwide.

If Popeye needed spinach for his power, you need healthy snacks to boost your energy! From dried fruit chips to nuts and protein bars, healthy snacks have become more popular since the 2000s, and the global healthy snack market will reach USD 98 billion by 2025. In the wide range of healthy snacks, raw fruits and vegetables appear as the main ingredient, and these snacks focus on the high protein content and reduced fat or carbohydrate percentages. Also, “less processed” and “less amount of added chemicals” are the primary trend in making healthy snacks as the clean eating movement began after the 2000s.

Healthy snacks

During the Middle Ages, sugar sweets were a delicacy only for the rich due to the high cost of sugar. Thankfully, the discovery that sugar could be extracted from sugar beets made sweets affordable for everyone. The sweet category is broad, covering chocolates, chewing gums, sugar candies, and candied/glazed products with sugar. To make these confections, sugar manufacturing equipment needs to cover different steps within the production line such as sugar dissolution, syrup cooking and cooling.
