A method of producing a chewy confectionery involves high or low shear mixing with no cooking to produce a mass which is well hydrated and yet has no phase separation of moisture. A bioaffecting agent included in the confectionery is effectively taste-masked, even one that is typically organoleptically unpalatable.

Positive hydration method of preparing confectionery and product therefrom

A method and apparatus provides for the formation of an encapsulated feedstock product matrix. A solid product matrix additive is spray ejected in a free-flow condition. The matrix additive is encapsulated in its free-flow condition with a matrix encapsulant. The encapsulant additive substantially solidifies in its free-flow condition to form the feedstock product matrix.

Method and apparatus for forming an encapsulated product matrix

The present invention is a unique process and apparatus for making a new matrix material called a shearform matrix which results in transformation of the morphology of a feedstock. The process is characterized by increasing the temperature of a nonsolubilized feedstock carrier to a point where it will undergo internal flow, followed by upwardly ejecting a stream of the feedstock and then subjecting it to disruptive fluid shear force which separates it into separate parts or masses which have a transformed morphology. The shearform matrix may include other ingredients such as oleaginous material and actives.
