Chocolate Pretzels
We buy pretzels from a sister firm so that we can make chocolate pretzels. The first step is to make the bottom. A moving belt having a series of small cups is flooded with a thin layer of chocolate. This bottom is chilled and it sets up hard. Then we place each pretzel on each chocolate bottom on this moving belt. Tempered chocolate is flooded over the pretzel. Each pretzel is covered with as much chocolate as it will hold and the excess drains off on each side through slits in the wall of the cup. The entire final piece goes through a long cooling tunnel where the chocolate sets up firmly.
