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

An extrusion machine and method of use for making a multi-structure gummy candy. Specifically, the multi-structure candy provides a gummy center encapsulated by hard candy.

The prevent invention relates to a fondant comprising a sugar system made up of a first non-crystalline phase and a second crystalline phase, wherein the non-crystalline phase contains isomaltulose and sucrose and wherein the crystalline phase contains isomaltulose. The invention also relates to a method for the production thereof, the use of the fondant as icing, coating or filling for baked goods and baked goods that are completely or partially coated with the fondant according to the invention.

A food and beverage bottle assembly is described. A food collar is adapted to slip onto the neck of a beverage bottle to create and a food and beverage bottle assembly. The assembly is particularly useful for gifts or special occasions such that particular food and beverage combinations, such as wine and chocolate or cheese may be paired and assembled together in a unique assembly.

The present invention relates to a process for producing a soft candy, the process comprising as process steps a) providing a soft-candy precursor composition characterized by a water content in a range from 15 to 24% by weight, based on the soft-candy precursor composition; and b) shaping the soft-candy precursor composition by means of a nozzle having an outlet opening by overlaying a substrate with the soft-candy precursor composition to obtain a shaped article, the outlet opening of the nozzle traveling a three-dimensional trajectory;
the process further comprising a hardening of the shaped article to obtain a soft candy. The invention further relates to a soft candy obtainable by the process; a device comprising a soft-candy precursor composition; a process for producing a soft candy using the device; the use of the device; and the use of a soft-candy precursor composition.

A baked confectionery that substantially includes no flour that is not oily even when a high oil content is used, has a moist texture and a melt-in-the-mouth quality free from roughness, and allows the original flavor of the raw material to be better tasted. The baked confectionery that substantially includes no flour includes 40-80 mass % of lipids, 1-10 mass % of proteins, and 5-25 mass % of saccharides. The lipids include, as a constituent fatty acid, triacylglycerol having a C6-12 medium-chain fatty acid, and the content of the triacylglycerol is at least 50 mass % of the oils and fats.
