A new, multi-purpose cooking and depositing system has been developed by Baker Perkins for sugar-free hard candy, and candy/crystallised xylitol composite products. The ServoForm SFX system is intended for manufacturers in the value-added and medicated confectionery markets producing high-quality hard candies, and gives the capability to make a new range of products that combine elements of both hard candy and xylitol.
It includes two cooking elements: the turbofilm plate pack cooker for sugar-free hard candy, and a unique continuous crystallisation process for xylitol. Both feed into a single or twin-headed ServoForm depositor for production of side-by-side or layered products. A single-headed depositing system can produce side-by-side two-colour products, or two-colour 'short term' layered confectionery. Baker Perkins has also developed the option of three-headed depositors for triple layered sugar-free and xylitol products with a genuine 'sandwich' appearance.
