Abstract

A liquid polyol is added to a flowable chocolate mixture after it has been tempered to increase the viscosity thereof. Utilizing concentric nozzles, the chocolate is simultaneously extruded around a non-aqueous stabilized batter material thus producing an outer cylinder of stabilized chocolate and an inner core of stabilized batter. The co-extruded entity is then cooked briefly in a microwave oven in order to set the batter into a stiff wafer-like material while leaving the outer chocolate coating essentially unchanged.
