A system for producing chocolate-based articles in solidifying form includes a transportation system having at least a first conveyor belt looped around at least a first and second axes. A dispensing unit is arranged to dispense chocolate mass in liquid form along an outer surface of a top load carrying side of the at least first conveyor belt. The at least one conveyor belt is arranged for transporting the chocolate mass through at least one cooling chamber at a predetermined speed along a first and a second cooling path, which may be positioned opposite one another. The system may further include a release mechanism positioned along the second cooling path for releasing the chocolate mass from an outer surface of the bottom load carrying side of the at least first conveyor belt.
