Optionally the coating can have a strong taste, such as by being sour, to distract away from the gag reflex. Optionally, a time release envelope is provided to delay bubbling or to block atmospheric humidity.

Disclosed is an apparatus for making a pastry in the shape of a cone, including a base carrying a plate, a cone holder removably mounted on the plate, at least one conical mold removably mounted on the cone holder, and a guide to guide a tool for depositing a preparation intended forming the pastry. The guide and cone holder are arranged so the depositing tool and the conical mold move with respect to each other to deposit, on the mold, the preparation to become the pastry to obtain at least one cone of the preparation formed around the conical mold. Also disclosed are equipment including the apparatus and the depositing tool, a method for making a pastry in the shape of a cone from a preparation intended to become the pastry by using the apparatus or the equipment, as well as the pastry in the shape of a cone.

The proposed apparatus relates to equipment for producing confectionery products and can be used at public catering and commercial enterprises for preparing candy floss. It includes a housing, a base with an electric motor having a shaft, a spinning head, a shell having a cover and propeller, and a diffusor secured on the base and having vertically bent vanes on its internal surface. The propeller is attached to the spinning head mounted on the shaft. The apparatus is equipped with rubberized supports for an extractor arranged on the housing. The diffusor has air intake openings in its lower part. The shell is made in the form of a ring having longitudinal slots. A spiral tubular heating element abuts the inside of the ring. The slots may repeat the shape of coils of the heating element. The proposed design makes it possible to considerably increase productivity of the apparatus.

The invention relates to a shape of a food product designed for a better biting, sharing, and overall eating experience, where each section is easily bitten off, keeping sensitive teeth from hurting, or broken off for sharing. More particularly, the present invention relates to a food product shape that includes a plurality of base units of polyhedrons or curved geometric shapes wherein the connection between the base units provide shearability.

A confectionary item dispenser include a dispenser housing having a dispenser housing opening, a reservoir within the dispenser housing having a reservoir chute aligned with the dispenser housing opening, and a dispenser shield disposed within the dispenser housing and movable so that a dispenser shield opening can align with the dispenser housing opening and the reservoir chute at a dispensing position to dispense a confectionary item. An indeterminate outcome actuation mechanism with an actuation mechanism input device causes the dispenser shield to move between the dispensing position and a non-dispensing position when the actuation mechanism input device is displaced such that the dispenser shield may be disposed in one of the dispensing position and the non-dispensing position when the actuation mechanism input device is displaced so that a confectionary item may or may not be dispensed each time.
