Process for preparing a soft cheesecake mixture and its production plant

A process for preparing a soft cheesecake mixture, comprising the following steps:

• placing the ingredients for preparing the soft mixture in a pre-mixing member;
• pre-mixing the aforesaid ingredients in the pre-mixing member so as to blend them together to obtain a pre-mixed mixture having a density comprised between 0.72 g/mL and 0.84 g/mL;
• transferring the pre-mixed mixture into a collection tank whose temperature is maintained at a value comprised between 25° C. and 40° C.;
• continuously transferring a part of the pre-mixed mixture present in the collection tank towards a homogenizing member as part of a continuous production process;
• homogenizing the pre-mixed mixture by means of said homogenizing member, whose temperature is maintained at a value comprised between 25° C. and 40° C. so as to obtain an emulsified mixture having a density comprised between 0.81 g/mL and 0.92 g/mL;
• and
• transferring the emulsified mixture towards a deaerator member configured to further reduce any air incorporated during the homogenization step so as to obtain a mixture having a density comprised between 0.90 g/mL and 0.97 g/mL;
• wherein said homogenizing member comprising a rotor rotating relative to a stator, between which there is defined a mixing chamber that extends along a longitudinal axis configured in such a way as to create a feed path of the pre-mixed mixture that has a serpentine or zig-zag configuration along which the continuous mixing of the pre-mixed mixture conveyed from the collection tank takes place, the pre-mixed mixture contained in the collection tank being gradually transferred continuously towards the homogenizing member for preparing the emulsified mixture having a density between 0.81 g/mL and 0.92 g/mL;
• and
• wherein each of the steps are realized as part of the continuous production process.
