Abstract
The disclosure relates to system and methods of forming food bars, specifically, to systems and methods implementable on these systems, of forming single serve food bars in a relatively short timeframe.
Claims21
A method of forming a single-serve edible bar comprising:
- a. providing a predetermined amount of discrete edible particulates;
- b. accretively coating the particulates with a colloidal or soluble binder materials;
- c. conveying the coated particulates to a molding means;
- and
- d. compressing the molding means over a predetermined period and temperature profile, for a predetermined pressure wherein the pressure varies with time in a non-continuous manner and the temperature varies non-linearly with time.
2 more elements
A system for forming a single-serve edible bar comprising:
- a. a molding module;
- b. means for subjecting the molding module to a predetermined pressure profile;
- c. means for subjecting the molding module to a predetermined temperature profile;
- d. means for loading and unloading the mold with a predetermined amount of particulate food;
- e. a plurality of sensors, configured to communicate time, temperature and pressure;
- and
- f. a processor in communication with the molding module, the means for subjecting the molding module to a predetermined pressure profile, the means for subjecting the molding module to a predetermined temperature profile, the means for loading and unloading the mold with a predetermined amount of particulate food, and the plurality of sensors, having a memory with a processor readable media thereon comprising a set of executable instructions configured to:
- load and/or unload the molding means;
- subject the molding means to the predetermined pressure profile;
- and subject the molding means to the predetermined temperature profile
