Abstract
A method for making confectionery products and an apparatus for use in the method. The method involves dissolving confectionery-based ingredients in water to provide a confectionery-based slurry and concentrating the slurry by applying the slurry onto a first hot surface having a first temperature to remove moisture from the slurry, scraping the slurry from the first surface to move the slurry onto a second hot surface having a second temperature to remove additional water from the slurry and provide a concentrated slurry having a final solids content, and scraping the concentrated slurry from the second surface after the desired total solids content is obtained. The concentrated slurry can then be formed into a confectionery product. The method is economical, clean, and may be used to prepare a wide variety of confections.
