Impregnated composite extrusion product

A composite consumable food product comprising a first foodstuff impregnated throughout a second foodstuff, the composite food product produced by a double extrusion process comprising:

• introducing one or more first foodstuffs into a first section of a twin screw extruder and processing the first foodstuffs in the first section to provide a liquid or pasty consumable substance;
• introducing one or more second foodstuffs into the second section of the twin-screw extruder and processing the second foodstuffs to provide a plasticized consumable substance, wherein the first and second sections off the twin screw extruder are separated by a dynamic separation device so that the first foodstuffs and the second foodstuffs can be processed separately;
• introducing a flavor or taste perceptible amount of the first foodstuff into the second foodstuff at a location in the second section of the twin screw extruder where the second material has been processed and plasticized but where the first foodstuff can be uniformly mixed with the second foodstuff to form a mixture of the second foodstuff impregnated with the first foodstuff;
• and
• extruding the mixture to provide an extruded strand of the composite consumable food product with the first foodstuff impregnated throughout the second foodstuff.
