Abstract
The present invention is a process for making icing utilizing a modified chocolate mixing machine. An icing slurry made of a mixture of fat and sugar is prepared and pumped into the mixing machine. The mixing machine has a plurality of independently controlled temperature zones. The icing slurry is mixed and propelled through these temperature zones by a plurality of blades attached to a rotor. The mixing machine has cooling plates between the blades. The cooling plates congeal the icing as it is being mixed. The icing is also aerated during this process. This process produces an icing having small beta prime fat crystals which allow the icing to 'set-up' rapidly. This invention also includes the product of the process.
