A user then inputs a selected seasoning and popcorn into the device and depresses a control button for injecting air into the interior of the container for mixing popcorn and the seasoning. As a result, the seasoning is evenly distributed on the popcorn to facilitate an enjoyable popcorn eating experience. The device further includes an air pump therein which manually provides are to a vent platform to a top end of the receptable. The top end also includes a hingedly attached dome which seals the top end of the receptacle.

A food product flavoring apparatus is provided. In some embodiments, the apparatus includes a removable container configured to contain a flavor target, a device for agitating the flavor target, and a housing. The housing is configured to receive the agitated flavor target when the removable container is adjacent the housing such that the container opening is aligned with the housing opening. The apparatus further includes a device for applying a flavoring agent to the agitated flavor target a device for removing substantially all residual flavoring agent from the housing after the flavor target has been flavored. A method of applying a flavoring agent to a flavor target is also provided.

A dusting powder sprinkling apparatus comprises a frame body, a hinge, a hook, and a toggle latch. The frame body presses the entire circumference of a mesh body, excluding the portion provided with through-holes, along the outer peripheral surface side of the mesh body to fix the mesh body to the hopper. The hinge rotatably fixes a first frame side extending along the rotation axis direction of the brush to the outlet of the hopper. The hook is fixed to a second frame side extending along the rotation axis direction of a brush in the frame body. A tip portion of the hook projects from the outer periphery of the frame body. The toggle latch is fixed to the outlet of the hopper facing the hook and is capable of engaging with the tip of the hook.

An adjustable breading machine for applying a coating material onto a food product, the machine includes a frame and a breading chamber enclosure through which the food product travels along the food path to receive a coating material. The adjustable breading machine may also include a hopper fixedly connected to the frame to deliver a coating material into the breading chamber enclosure. At least partially within the breading chamber enclosure is a main conveyor and an outfeed conveyor. In a first mode of operation, the outfeed conveyor lies in the food path and receives food product from the main conveyor. The adjustable breading machine includes a drum assembly operatively disposed above the outfeed conveyor having a rotatable drum for transporting food product and coating material to the outfeed conveyor. The adjustable breading machine also includes a drum adjustment assembly for moving the drum assembly between modes of operation.

The present invention provides an apparatus for coating an edible receptacle the apparatus comprising a nozzle for applying a fat-based coating material to the internal surface of the edible receptacle and a gas-dosing element with an external surface shape corresponding to the internal shape of the edible receptacle wherein the gas dosing element has at least one aperture suitable for the introduction of cooled gas into the edible receptacle. The invention also provides a process for manufacturing a coated edible receptacle for a frozen confection comprising the steps of: providing an edible receptacle; at least partially coating the internal surface of the edible receptacle by spraying a fat-based coating onto the internal surface of the edible receptacle; and introducing a gas-dosing element into the edible receptacle, wherein the gas-dosing element has an external surface shape corresponding to the internal shape of the edible receptacle and wherein cooled gas is introduced into the edible receptacle through the gas-dosing element and wherein the gas dosing element does not come into contact with the fat-based coating.

The present invention relates to a leaktight food filling deposition system providing ease of mounting/demounting, maintenance and cleaning. The present invention particularly relates to a deposition system for depositing food fluids of various temperatures, acidities, viscosities and densities onto, between and into the food products, said deposition system being individually operated, requiring no maintenance, having a high deposition capacity, optionally allowing for each nozzle to deposit different materials and comprising low weight deposition nozzles and a low weight manifold.

A kit and method of use thereof are provided for making a smash cake. The kit includes a mallet, at least one mold, a quantity of shell-making material, and a plurality of confectioneries. Additionally, the kit may include at least one plate. The mallet allows a user to smash the smash cake. The at least one mold allows a cake shell to be formed. The quantity of shell-making material is used to create a cake shell of the smash cake. The plurality of confectioneries may be cookies, candies, and the like. The plurality of confectioneries is used to fill the smash cake. The quantity of shell-making material is poured about the at least one mold and then hardened into a cake shell. The cake shell is filled with the plurality of confectioneries and then placed on the at least one plate. The smash cake is then smashed with the mallet.

A method and an apparatus for making a multilayer confectionery product provided. The method and apparatus include at least two sets of forming drums that form and laminate confectionery sheets.

The food-coating device comprises a drum, a rolling stand, and a motor. The drum may apply a breading mixture to a plurality of food items. The plurality of food items and the breading mixture may be placed within the drum. The drum may be spun by the motor to tumble the plurality of food items and the breading mixture such that the plurality of food items are coated with the breading mixture. The drum and the motor may be supported by the rolling stand. A door may pivot open to provide access to the interior of the drum. A door gasket may seal the door when the door is closed.
