A method for producing a frozen product including a solid matrix throughout which particulates are distributed using an apparatus including at least one compartment which is rotatable about an axis. The method can include the steps of adding to the compartment a liquid to be frozen to form the matrix and particulates to be distributed therein, reducing the temperature around the compartment to a temperature below the freezing point of the liquid, rotating the compartment about the axis while at least some of the liquid freezes within the compartment trapping at least some of the particulates within the frozen matrix and removing the frozen product from the compartment.

The present invention relates to a structurally stable frozen confection product comprising from two to eight frozen confection streams rippled in the longitudinal direction, wherein the frozen confection stream ripples form a longitudinal repeat unit comprising a ripple of each frozen confection stream and the frozen confection product comprises from three to eight repeat units and the longitudinal rotational axes of the ripples are spaced apart from each other. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for the preparation of the structurally stable frozen confection product.

A machine for making liquid or semi-liquid food products includes: a first processing container for processing a liquid or semi-liquid base product and defining a processing chamber; a stirrer for mixing the product in the first processing container; a thermal system including a heat exchanger, associated with the first processing container, wherein the heat exchanger includes a hollow element extending along an axis and provided externally with grooves defining a path extending along the axis and at least one duct disposed inside the grooves.

The invention relates to emulsions for use in food products. In particular, the invention relates to stable water-in-oil emulsions for reduced fat food products such as confectionery, spreads, and bakery goods.

An ice cream roll maker includes a housing, a freezer wheel mounted within the housing and configured for rotation about a horizontal axis, and a reservoir within the housing for holding a liquid ingredient. An outer peripheral surface of the freezer wheel is configured to receive the liquid ingredient from the reservoir and transform the liquid ingredient into a frozen coating layer on the outer peripheral surface.
