Improving a tempering machine for confectionery masses

The object of this study is the technology of making fruit pat based on apple, apricot, and rosehip paste. To increase the organoleptic and physical-chemical quality indicators, the technology of functional fruit pat for functional purposes has been improved by using fruit and berry paste as a fruit base. Accordingly, a technique for the production of fruit and berry paste (apple 50 %, apricot 35 %, rosehip 15 %) was devised. The peculiarity of the technique is a short-term, 30–40 s, concentration at 52–54 °C in a rotary evaporator, which will positively contribute to the preservation of the functional ingredients of raw materials, unlike conventional batch vaporizers. The paste has an improved viscous structure and organoleptic properties compared to the control, which makes it possible to recommend it as a fruit base for pat. The viscosity of the pat mass based on the paste at 50 °C is 225 Pa∙s, which is 20 % higher than the control ("Fruit" pat), which will contribute to better structure formation. At the same time, the sample with the paste has better indicators of taste and smell, which can be characterized as natural and harmonious. The new pat has a natural orange saturated color and is characterized by a long-lasting consistency, and the content of functional ingredients significantly exceeds the control sample. The quantitative content of dietary fiber, vitamin A, C, β-carotene is important, according to which the devised pat based on the paste can be classified as a functional product. The new products are characterized by an organic composition of raw materials, do not contain artificial dyes and flavors, and the proposed technological solutions simplify the process of their production, which makes it possible to recommend the technology for implementation at craft enterprises

“…One of the ways to preserve the introduced physiologically functional ingredients in confectionery products is the use of modern equipment for the preparation of whipped masses [26]. However, the cited studies are limited due to the fact that testing was carried out only for the marshmallow mass without taking into account the technological features of other confectionery masses.…”

The object of research is the technology of creamy-whipped sweets with the addition of fruit and berry paste. Its addition solves the problem of improving sugar masses, namely structural characteristics and physiological value (enrichment with non-starch polysaccharides, vitamin C, polyphenols, and organic acids). In addition, a positive effect is achieved by providing the products with original organoleptic properties without the use of synthetic dyes and flavors. The proposed fruit and berry paste is obtained at gentle temperatures, which allows preserving the biological potential of raw materials and is characterized by a strong structure with a dynamic viscosity of 498 Pa·s. It was found that the introduction of fruit and berry paste in the amount of up to 10 % by weight of formulation raw materials improves the foaming ability of protein mass in the process of whipping. Increasing the paste content to 20 % leads to a slight deterioration in this indicator, but its value is at the level of control. The stability of the whipped protein mass increases evenly by increasing the dosage of the additive. The positive effect of fruit and berry paste on the quality indicators of finished creamy-whipped candy masses was noted. Samples with the additive give less shrinkage during the structuring process, its duration is reduced, and strength increases. It is recommended to add fruit and berry paste to creamy-whipped candy masses in the amount of 15 % of the total amount of formulation raw materials and at the same time reduce the formulation dosage of agar by 40 %. Such products acquire an original lilac color, a pleasant yogurt flavor, and the aroma of red currant. The nutrient composition of products is significantly improved – the content of non-starch polysaccharides increases by 2 times; the product is enriched with vitamin C and polyphenolic compounds that are absent in the control sample

“…It should be noted that during the production of confectionery products based on semi-finished products of a high degree of readiness, it is necessary to ensure a uniform consistency, which is implemented in various mixers, tempering machines, etc. [20].…”

The object of the study is a multi-component past-like semi-finished product based on apples, Jerusalem artichokes, cranberries and hawthorn, which are natural nutrients with original properties obtained by cooking at 55–60 °C in an experimental vacuum-evaporator. The method of production of a multi-component semi-finished product has been improved by keeping hawthorn in a 10...15 % NaCl solution with the addition of 1 % citric acid at 20...25 °C for 30...45 minutes. Blanching with hot steam at a temperature of 105...110 °C is carried out for: apple (2...3 min), Jerusalem artichoke (5...8 min) and hawthorn (4...6 min), and cranberries are blanched with water for 1.5...3 min at temperatures of 80...90 °C. Wiping the components followed by recipe-component blending and boiling at 55...60 °C in an experimental vacuum-evaporator. According to the organoleptic parameters, the puree blend containing: apple – 35 %, Jerusalem artichoke – 30 %, cranberry – 25 % and hawthorn – 10 % with a yellow-orange color has the advantage. The ultimate shear stress (pureed components, Pa) is: apple – 14, Jerusalem artichoke – 322, cranberry – 75, hawthorn – 445. The boiled paste mixture has an increased viscosity by 3.5 times compared to the control. The heating of the working chamber and the stirrer of the vacuum-evaporating apparatus is carried out by a film resistive electronic heater of the radiating type, providing stabilization of the temperature effect and a 45 % increase in the boiling efficiency compared to the classic vacuum apparatus. The improved method will expand the range of competitive semi-finished products of a wide range of applications with natural nutrients and regulated rheological and functional properties, which will contribute to the production of food products with an immunomodulating effect
