Abstract
Plungers (11) having a pressing surface (14) onto which no lubricant is applied are immersed into contact with tempered chocolate mass (6) in corresponding moulds (7), the chocolate thereby being pressed into shells (20). The temperature of the pressing surfaces (14) are kept below the solidification temperature of the chocolate mass during the pressing. The chocolate rapidly solidifies under crystallisation from its surface in contact with the pressing surface (14) of the plunger and inwardly through the chocolate layer. Contamination of the plungers (11) and the edible chocolate articles with lubricant remains is completely avoided and the inner surfaces of the shells are simply identical 'prints' of the geometry of the plunger surfaces (14).
