The invention is directed to a confection package comprising of a handle (8), a planar sheet (7) and a plastic mould product. The plastic mould product (1) comprises of a space (2) for a confection fluidly separated from a space (3) for one end of a handle (6), and a horizontal planar surface (5). An offset intermediate part (11, 22) of the handle (6) is sealed at its upper end (13) to the planar cover sheet (7) and at its lower end (14) to an upper end (15) of a wall part (16) of the plastic mould product (1) which wall part (16) horizontally separates the space (2) for a confection from the space (3) for one end of a handle (6). The upper end (13) of the handle (6) is positioned above the planar surface (5).

The equipment of the invention comprises a toroidal channel-shaped freezing tank (1) containing coolant superimposed on a circular crown-shaped rotary mold holder (7), formed by a plurality of sectors (7D) affixed to the periphery of one traction disc (8) driven by a stepper motor (12), said sectors having rectangular openings (7C) into which molds (9) engage, whose lower portions are immersed in the coolant. At the bottom of the channel there is a rigid pipe (4) provided with a plurality of holes (19) through which jets of coolant are released under pressure. The popsicle release means comprise a radially oriented niche (29) within said tank (1) and a vertically displaceable housing (40) which, in the upper position, accommodates a mold (9) and a perforated horizontal pipe (41) which releases jets of heated fluid against the mold cups (9).

An edible decoration is laser kiss cut from an edible decorating sheet by optically sensing at least one printed edible design on the edible decorating sheet relative to a laser cutting tool coordinate system and driving a laser along a circuit of cutting locations defined in the laser cutting tool coordinate system. The laser beam forms a separation channel by laser ablation of at least a portion of the edible decorating sheet at the cutting locations while leaving intact the non-adhesive releasable backing upon which the edible decorating sheet rests.

Mechanisms and methods for producing a baked or fried cake product are disclosed herein that include: a mold, a product handle insertion mechanism, a dipping tray, wherein the dipping tray is designed to hold a plurality of the baked or fried cake products, a robotic tool, an open container of a liquid coating material, a robotic dipping tool, wherein the dipping tool is designed to place the full dipping tray into the container of the liquid coating material and then remove the full dipping tray from the container after the baked or fried cake product is coated, and a drying station.

A system and a method of making a soluble coffee product is used to make a serving of fresh coffee on the go that is healthy and matches the user's taste. The overall process starts by mixing the amount of soluble coffee, the first amount of liquid sweetener, and the amount of bee pollen into a quantity of liquid mixture. The quantity of liquid mixture is partitioned into liquid-mixture portions by filling each molding receptacle with a corresponding liquid-mixture portion from the liquid-mixture portions. Each liquid-mixture portion is inserted with a corresponding stick from the lollipop sticks. The liquid-mixture portions are frozen into solid-mixture portions. The solid-mixture portions are removed from the molding receptacles. A liquid-sweetener coating is applied to each solid-mixture portion by dipping each solid-mixture portion into the second amount of liquid sweetener. Finally, the liquid-sweetener coating is frozen into a solid-sweetener coating for each solid-mixture portion.

Cold desserts incorporating gelatin-based (gummy) components are provided in this paper. In particular, stick-mounted cold desserts, edible-cone cold desserts, and container-served desserts with gelatin-based components are described. The gelatin-based components of these desserts are made from gelatin-based candy material that is specially-formulated for consumption at cold temperatures. The gelatin-based components may be used with other components of a cold dessert such as with flavored water ice, ice cream, sherbet, sorbet, and the like as described throughout this paper.

According to an embodiment of the present utility model, an ice-cream bar by recycling waste coffee may be provided. The ice-cream bar by recycling waste coffee may comprise waste coffee powder and a biocompatible binder for combining the waste coffee powder to form the ice-cream bar.
