Abstract
A candy product of chocolate and of a syrup confectionery composition which are interspersed so that the syrup confectionery composition defines a plurality of veins dispersed in the product. Production of the product is effected by cold extrusion by applying pressure to a particulate mixture of the chocolate and syrup confectionery composition in an extruder, in that the mixture passed through the extruder and the extrudate from an extruder die are at a temperature so that the mixture and extrudate are in a non-pourable state, and the pressure is applied so that the chocolate and confectionery composition plastically deform so that the confectionery composition defines veins interspersed within the chocolate.
