The application describes comestible products comprising a water-in-oil emulsion, the water-in-oil emulsion comprising cocoa butter and a fat-crystal stabilised aqueous phase dispersed substantially through the cocoa butter continuous phase and optionally one or more additional ingredients of chocolate. Hydrocolloids, such as gelative or carrageenan are typically used to stabilise the aqueous phase. Methods of making comestible products are also provided.

The utility model relates to assembly of flora(s) replica(s) (FIG. 16) comprised of theobroma cacao chocolate either un-sweet or sweetened or seasoned and or any combination and variety of theobroma cacao chocolate. Along with combining edible materials of same or different textures and flavors conjoined and or coated in some way with theobroma cacao chocolate. Once constructed into the flora replica invention lends itself to a wider array of cultures, tastes, social applications and dietary un-segregation. Resulting in overcoming the lack of flavor, economic negativity, and dietary segregation of prior art.

The invention is a chocolate confectionery preparation method improving with good taste and texture, and chocolate confectionery. The method comprises steps of: molding chocolate balls; forming a first coating layer by coating the chocolate balls with a first coating solution, and sprinkling weak flour on the same; drying the first coating layer; forming a second coating layer by coating the first coating layer with a second coating solution, and mixing and sprinkling weak flour and pregelatinized starch; forming a third coating layer by coating the second coating layer with a third coating solution, and mixing and sprinkling weak flour and pregelatinized starch; forming a fourth coating layer by coating the third coating layer with the sugar liquor and sprinkling weak flour on the same; roasting a half-finished product having the fourth coating layer; and sweetening the roasted half-finished product.

The present application provides a system or kit for printing tempered chocolate. The system includes a first heated vessel for maintaining chocolate therein untempered, and a second heated vessel in fluid communication with the first heated vessel for maintaining chocolate therein within the range of about 84 degrees Fahrenheit and about 92 degrees Fahrenheit and tempered with about 0.5% to about 3% type V crystals. The system further includes a syringe pump configured to pump tempered chocolate and a nozzle. The system further includes a three-way valve for selectively coupling the syringe pump and the second vessel, or the nozzle and the syringe pump, in fluid communication to direct the tempered chocolate from the second vessel through the nozzle. The system further includes a control system for controlling the system such that the chocolate flowing from the nozzle includes greater than about 3% type V crystals.

A method for printing a three-dimensional crystalline structure such as a chocolate layer wherein, after printing, the material has a desired crystal structure. An embodiment can include printing a liquid first layer of material with a printer onto a second layer of material having a crystal structure. Subsequently, the printed liquid first layer is processed to solidify the first layer. During the processing of the printed liquid first layer, the second layer functions as a crystal seed layer through physical contact with the printed liquid first layer and the second layer crystallizes with the crystal structure.

The food coating composition of the invention contains a cocoa powder having an L* of 35 or less and a powdery dispersion medium, wherein the cocoa powder is dispersed in the powdery dispersion medium. The content of the cocoa powder is preferably 0.1 to 10 mass %. The processed food of the present invention has a cocoa powder having an L* of 35 or less attached to its surface. The method for producing a processed food of the invention includes applying the food coating composition to a food substrate to form a coated food substrate and allowing the coated food substrate to cook. Allowing the coated food substrate to cook may be by at least one of frying, oven cooking, and steaming.
