Confectionery, Snacks & Bars Equipment
Precision for Sweet and Savory Applications
Snack and confectionery products rely on careful control of syrups, coatings, and inclusions. Blentech systems are engineered to handle viscous sugar blends, candy fillings, nut coatings, and cereal clusters with repeatable quality. Our cookers and mixers deliver precise thermal profiles, customizable agitation, and automation through AutoChef, ensuring every batch is consistent from trial to production.
Blentech jacketed heating systems — rated up to 150 PSIG or configured with thermal oil for temperatures up to 600°F (315°C) — combined with high-viscosity agitation, provide controlled caramelization and even cooking, producing stable syrups and candy bases that set consistently.
Uniform coating is critical for product appearance and taste. With thermal oil systems capable of reaching 600°F (315°C), Blentech cookers apply heat and agitation evenly while durable scraper, seal, and gasket designs extend service life up to 3× longer than traditional horizontal mixers. Precise thermal oil control prevents clumping and burn-on, while cleanable body geometry simplifies changeovers between seasoning profiles.
Snack mixes require even seasoning and controlled oil application. Blentech mixers distribute seasonings consistently while maintaining product integrity, and integrate directly with downstream coating tumblers to minimize breakage in fragile inclusions.
Binding syrups and particulates can be difficult to combine at scale. Blentech cookers and mixers manage viscous binders while protecting inclusions like grains, nuts, and fruit pieces, with door, seal, and agitator systems built to withstand high-force, abrasive loading. The result is stable clusters and bar components ready for downstream forming and cutting.
