A water ice molded product which comprises a translucent water-ice shell, a multi-colored core provided within the shell which core is visible in the product before and during consumption, and a stick for holding the product.
A process for preparing a water ice molded confection comprising:
- filling a mould with a primary ice confection mix for a shell component,
- partially freezing the mix and then removing liquid from the center of the partially frozen shell to create a translucent, frozen shell portion having a thickness of about 0.1 to 8 mm,
- forming divided cavities in the frozen shell,
- pouring secondary ice confection mixes of one or more different colors and flavors into the cavities to form at least one different colored ice confection stripe in the core component,
- adding a stick to the product, and
- freezing the shell and core to form a frozen confection having a translucent shell around a colored core.
A process for preparing a water ice molded confection comprising:
- filling a mould with a primary ice confection mix for a shell component,
- introducing a mould insert into the mould containing the primary mix before freezing the mix to form the shell;
- freezing the shell while the mold inserts are in place therein;
- removing the mould inserts to form divided cavities in the frozen shell,
- pouring secondary ice confection mixes of one or more different colors and flavors into the cavities to form at least one different colored ice confection stripe in the core component,
- adding a stick to the product, and
- freezing the shell and core to form a frozen confection having a translucent shell around a colored core.
A process for preparing a water ice molded confection comprising:
- filling a mould with a primary ice confection mix for a shell component,

- forming a core of one or more differently colored blocks through extrusion of the frozen blocks into the mould;
- adding further ice confection mix to fill the mould,
- adding a stick to the product, and
- freezing the shell, core and further mix to form a frozen confection having a translucent shell around a colored core.
A process for preparing a water ice molded confection which comprises:
- introducing a mould insert with open slots centered into a mould to provide divided cavities,
- pouring secondary ice confection mixes of at least one different color or flavor into the open slots of the insert to fill the cavities and to form a core component,
- retracting the mould inserts,
- inserting a stick,
- freezing the core component and demolding it, and
- dipping the core component in a primary ice confection mix to coat and freeze it thereupon and form a shell component, thus obtaining a completely frozen product.
