ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing a grained confection from a supersaturated sugar solution on a continuous basis is provided. A homogeneous aqueous solution comprised of corn syrup and sucrose is continuously fed to a heating apparatus having an inlet and an outlet with the heating means interposed therebetween to provide an increasing temperature to the solution from the inlet to the outlet. The solution is heated to a predetermined temperature and water vapor is continuously separated from the solution to form a sugar solution of a predetermined concentration which is supersaturated at up to 185.degree. F. The concentrated sugar solution is continuously cooled in 33 seconds or less to below its saturation temperature and a fine grained confection is produced having minute crystals therein.
