Nowadays, with the sharp rise in domestic consumption level, the consumption demand of Chinese people for chocolate is also increasing rapidly. Chocolate comes from cacao beans, the fruit of wild cacao trees in the tropical rain forests of Central America. With the continuous upgrading of processing technology, chocolate products have become more and more abundant.
Chocolate is a dessert made of cocoa mass and cocoa butter as the main raw materials. It can be eaten directly or used to make cakes, ice cream, etc. According to statistics, the global sales of chocolate products in 2019 reached 118.62 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 4.4%. It is expected that global sales will exceed 135 billion US dollars by 2023.
In the chocolate production process, it is necessary to mix a series of raw materials such as cocoa powder, skimmed milk powder, whole milk powder, and spices to produce chocolate raw material slurry, which is then poured into a mold to form, placed and cooled, and then demolded. In these production processes, chocolate production equipment is naturally indispensable. Today, the widespread popularity of automated production equipment has brought chocolate production into the industrial era.
It is understood that the equipment currently available for chocolate production on the market includes mixers, refiners, oil melting tanks, coating machines, pouring machines, dripping machines, powder sugar machines, latte art machines and so on. Based on automated production and control technology, the production efficiency of chocolate has been significantly improved, and the product quality has been stable. However, with the rapid changes in market demand, the production requirements of chocolate companies have increased, and production equipment has been gradually upgraded.
Nowadays, there are more and more types of chocolates on the market. In addition to the traditional dark chocolate, white chocolate, milk chocolate, etc., chocolate products such as sandwich chocolate, truffle chocolate, nut chocolate, and cereal chocolate are also welcomed by many young consumers. The application of intelligent equipment such as chocolate coating machines in the chocolate production line will not only improve the speed and efficiency, but also improve product quality and safety in production.
