EDITOR’S COMMENT Welcome to the new look Kennedy’s Confection Magazine

irst of all I would like to thank everyone that wrote to me last month. You really are rather a unique group of wholly interesting people. Really, I was quite touched by your candid letters of support and how much you liked the new look Kennedy’s Confection and the nonconformist writing. My best letter to the editor went something like, “Angus you wrote ‘God is laughing’, but we are still reading…” Many of you said how much you looked forward to an altogether different approach; perhaps you know something about me that I did not know myself until I started editing. It is better to learn and see how not to do something than having someone insisting on showing you the right way.

“When the world says no, you say yes.”

Writing, like music, painting and creating is an art. You never really know what’s coming until you start. Don’t think, just listen to the music, sit back, close your eyes and there are the words in my head, ready for action. I throw them in the air and they land here at random to produce, in effect, live writing, beautiful isn’t it? That’s the only way I know that you are reading, when I write like that because it comes from beyond the mind. But there will be other times that, I do apologise for now, that I need to be informative and use my mind, sorry! So, before I get so carried away that this turns out to read more like the working of an 18th century ‘out of mind’ French Philosopher, there are one or two things at the very least, that may require a small slice of your erudite attention. Firstly welcome Bernd Postma, Managing Director of Delicia in Holland who agreed after we met in Paris, to write a regular column for Kennedy’s, My Factory My day (see page 47). I also have to point out that Kennedy’s Confection magazine is officially being given out at the entrances to ProSweets in Jan 2010 to celebrate our 120 years anniversary. (How cool is that!) And to top it, yes we really are taking a London bus to Cologne and having a rather large party on Tuesday 2nd February evening at Prosweets. So just pop that in your diaries, the Champagne is sponsored by the French and our main sponsor (we thank completely) is Bosch.

But I say that because I really believe the event will work for you and what’s more, we shall be having a drink together in the British Museum! (page 38). How else will you meet our unique cross section of Kennedy’s readers? I have learned a lot about this great country by the name of the Netherlands (page 26). There is so much we don’t know in life (it’s monumental), but I hope I may have contributed to some of the gaps with this huge 6-page feature on this wonderful country, technology and people. Finally keep the letters coming, let me know, above all what you want to read because, by the time we have finished this joint experience, you might actually want to read a trade journal for the first time in your life! Here’s to creating what we have to create and doing what we must do. When the world says no, you say yes and just do it! Until next month- Happy Xmas shopping if you can avoid it!

The Latest News from the World of Confection

UK now spends the most on chocolate The UK is at last good at something. A nation that is used to being at the bottom of most survey lists from health through to education has at last come out on top. According to research from Mintel's Global Market Navigator (GMN), Britons spend more on chocolate than any other country in Europe. Despite the recession, the UK consumed £3.5 billion worth of chocolate last year with Germany coming in second with £3.4 billion, followed by France. Confectionery, we are told, on the whole is experiencing something of a horses kick with sales generally looking promising across Europe and beyond. Mintel's GMN also report that the British spent £57 per head on chocolate in 2008. Only Switzerland spends more on chocolate at £111 when looked at by ‘per head’ of population in 2008, with Belgium £48 and Germany £41 per head. The recession as we predicted has not waxed the British enthusiasm for chocolate. The UK market grew by 7.4% in 2007 and it still managed to achieve 4% growth in 2008 despite economic conditions. Mintel GMN goes on to forecast continued expansion of 5.8% in 2009 and then predicts year-on-year increases of 5% until 2013, when the market will be valued at £4.4 billion. Are we OK now to officially say its over? Steve Charlton, Managing Director Mintel GMN said: "These figures demonstrate the British love of chocolate remains as strong as ever. The fact that we buy more chocolate than any other European country, despite recessionary pressure and our comparative lack in size, shows where the priorities of sweet toothed Brits lie!" There is also clear segmentation in the UK. Countline products are the largest sector comprising 34.1% of the market at a value of nearly £1.2 billion. Boxes of assorted chocolate make up 22.7% of sales and there are also seasonal bursts of novelty chocolates around Christmas

These figures demonstrate the British love of chocolate remains as strong as ever. The fact that we buy more chocolate than any other European country, despite recessionary pressure and our comparative lack in size, shows where the priorities of sweet toothed Brits lie! and Easter, representing 12.9% of the market with a value of £451 million. In addition when it comes to global innovation, Europe leads the way. Indeed, in the first six months of the year, almost four in ten (38%) new chocolate products were launched in Europe. Premium products have been particularly popular in Europe.

"The trend towards good quality produce is reflective of European consumers' interest in ingredients. In fact, in the last 6 months alone, almost three quarters of all new organic products and over half of all new Fair-trade products have been launched in this region," adds Charlton. Meanwhile, it seems new product development is also not suffering in the current economic climate. Mintel's Global New Products Database reveals that new chocolate product launches in the UK are up from 345 in 2007 to 439 in 2008. While Brits lead the way in overall chocolate consumption, Germany is the most active region in terms of new product development, accounting for a quarter of all European launches followed by Austria with 12% and the UK with 8%. Reduced sugar chocolate launches rose from just six in 2007 to 26 in 2008, gluten free chocolate launches from 13 in 2007 to 40 in 2008 and additive free chocolate from 22 in 2007 to 46 launches in 2008.

AND YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST ADDING ALMONDS.

A lot goes in with a little almond. From zero cholesterol to 13 essential nutrients, it’s the nut that, ounce for ounce, adds more value to just about anything, including great–tasting crunch. And consumers know it. In fact, every year the demand for products with almonds goes up. So just add them in and watch them come. One serving of almonds is 30 grams.

News in Brief Time to go, POP

As quoted in the Los Angeles Times, the average American drinks 50 gallons of Coke and other sweet drinks per year, confirming suspicions that soda pop is one of the main culprits of obesity in the US. Unlike Confectionery, the sugars can be perceived to be hidden to the consumers. Portion size of the average drink size has gone up to a drink that in a single purchase, contains over 17 teaspoons of sugar. The US authorities are investigating the use of a tax on soda pop drinks.

New ownership of Klöckner Hänsel Processing GmbH Following successful negotiations with the holding company Klöckner Werke AG, Klöckner Hänsel Processing GmbH is now an independent company. The three new shareholders will be PROFORM, the supplier of confectionery equipment, along with Mr. Frank Temme and Mr. Heiko Kühn. Collectively they have taken over the partnership interests at Klöckner Hänsel Processing GmbH. The directors of the new company will be Mr. Heiko Kühn and Mr. Frank Temme. Mr. Frank Temme told Kennedy’s: “We have had a long term, reliable and trustful relationship with PROFORM already

for years and we have shared 500 m 2-level booth for the last 3 Interpacks already. This brought us together in a strong partnership, which is proven in some bigger projects for Chewy Candy, Toffee, Hard Candy and Chewing Gum lines world wide. Together we are offering turnkey projects from raw material handling to the final product. Thus it was just logical to reach a stronger position in the market by this partnership and with new developments in mind.” Both PROFORM and Klöckner Hänsel Processing are looking forward to a prosperous and positive joint future. Temme added: “We will also have our 100th year anniversary in 2011,

right in time for Interpack 2011, and our customers can count on our ongoing and even stronger focus on development for customised, reliable and economic technology.”

Kraft opens new factory in Russia Kraft Foods has officially opened a $50 million cookies and cake plant in the Vladimir region of Russia with a capacity of up to 35,000 tons per year. The company is looking forward to doubling its confectionery sales in Russia by the end of the year according to Kraft Russia CEO David Steer, as well as to continue its investments in

expansion in the local market. Steer expects the company to achieve a double-digit sales growth this year in Russia. This is boosted by the fact that the U.S. company is expected to continue to invest in expanding capacity of its coffee factory in St. Petersburg, and biscuits and chocolates production in the city of Pokrov (Vladimir region). Kraft

Iba moves to Munich Iba has announced that its bakery show will be moved to Munich from Düsseldorf. The show that has just taken place in October 2009, will from now on be staged in Munich. The next exhibition will take place Sept 28 - 3rd October

2012 and runs every three years. In 2006 the show reported 76,206 visitors and in 2009 they claim, saw a rise in visitor numbers to 79,500 visitors. Iba tells Kennedy’s that the first Iba took place in Cologne and changed its location every time and the

reasons why the German Bakers' Confederation decided to organise Iba only in Munich in the future was to ‘internationalise and to evolve Iba more and more’. They also claim exhibitors and visitors will have ‘long-term planning security’ with one trade fair location.

Foods plans to commence production of its Barney Brand, a famous chocolate biscuits brand, which, until now, have been imported from Poland and France. Steer commented that the group had no plans to make acquisitions of any local brands, however such possibility may arise in the future.

New Sweetener from Bioplus Life Sciences Following over 60 years of developing superior healthcare and nutritional products across the world, BioPlus of India has launched a high potency sweetener brand Solo™ Sucralose. The new

sweetener, made from sugar is claimed to be 600 times sweeter and highly stable, enabling use at high temperatures and low ph environments and can deliver extended storage periods, due to its stability.

Key Lime Iced Tea Sippers

NEW

New in the US from Hammonds Candies are Iced Tea Sippers comprising sugar candy sticks available in orange, key lime or lemon flavours; and packaged in a standard transparent plastic tub. What makes the line stand out is not its packaging, formulation or format, which are pretty standard, but its novel positioning - the company markets the product as a straw to playfully flavour your tea on a hot summer day. This is a simple yet clever way of encouraging more consumption of sugar confectionery since Iced Tea Sippers are overtly marketed as an accompaniment to a popular beverage in the US, iced tea. Moreover, the line is also arguably attempting to re-position a children’s favourite (ie candy sticks) as something to be enjoyed more often by adults - since iced tea is a drink with a grown-up appeal. In fact, according to the Mintel report, Tea and RTD Teas, US, May 2009, use of RTD canned and bottled iced teas is highest among respondents aged 18-34. The product may stand out in terms of its positioning but there is some debate and confusion over whether it actually works as a straw. Although on-pack it states use as a straw, the product is fairly solid in structure (as expected from a candy stick) and attempts to sip drinks through it have been unsuccessful - this despite the product being porous.

Fruit Flavoured Snacks Betty Crocker Fruit Roll-Ups Fruit Flavoured Snacks are available in a Blastin' Berry variety. This kosher certified product is targeted at children. It retails in a 10 count 141g pack made from 100% recycled paper fibres.

Perhaps the main aim of this product is to simply stir and dissolve, as also stated on-pack, in order to add sweeteness and flavour to iced tea. If the intention of this product is to use it as a standard straw, the company could do well to make the sticks hollow or more porous, and take inspiration from the likes of Unistraw with its Sipahh milk flavouring straws filled with soluble beads which dissolve in the course of drinking or Kelloggs cereal straws.

Editors’ REVIEW Le Wiff… Le What?

really had thought that I had seen it all. Do you remember the scud missile rocket chocolates during the Argentinian wars or the candy scorpions from Mexico from Hotlix or the chocolates to make you love football (reported last month) when you hate footy. And now. Oh no, listen up, check this out my loved readers. We are going to have to have an award for the best innovative product and this is a very strong contender. We question herewith the concept of whether we can experience the effects of chocolate without eating it! Oh and of course, therefore not putting on the Calories. Last month we reported from our article on ‘The Love of Chocolate’ (See Kennedy’s Confection October 09 issue), that there may be some clear proven effects on the brain on the smell of chocolate.

The company LaboGroup of France seemed to like this idea a lot and literally have come up with ‘Le Whif’, an Inhalable (yes really) powdered chocolate, they claim it’s a new way of eating chocolate. It’s relatively simple, we just breath it! Le Whif was invented by a Harvard Professor by the name of David Edwards in collaboration with students, designers, engineers and other creatives at Edwards' art and design centre Le Laboratoire, in Paris. The inhalable powdered chocolate, we are told, consists of hundreds of miligrams of tiny food particles. According to the manufacturer, this chocolate is a terrific way to curb the appetite. I am not convinced, a publicity stunt or a genuine product, or a desparate measure to sell perfectly good chocolate in any other way than the way we are supposed to enjoy it. We must tell you that the inhaler is filled with individual chocolate shots, known as ‘Whifs’, each containing 200mg of chocolate powder with each puff – total four puffs. These retail in packs of six priced at £9.95 which equates to around 40p a puff, equivalent to an average chocolate bar. You are going to have to be quite a keen Whiffer to dig deep into your wallet for this product. But it’s a great idea and without these ideas and innovations we would not be here today in such a successful industry. My kids suffer from Asthma and hate their inhalers, perhaps a use to get them to like them… perhaps not? According to the product website, Le Whif uses particle engineering to form natural food substances, like chocolate, in particle sizes that are small enough to become airborne though too large to enter the lungs. The team behind the product is now working on other culinary projects using the inhaling technique. I am so pleased I am in confectionery, can you imagine Le Wiff of some more unsavoury products. What’s next. Well, we will see, if you keep renewing your subscriptions of course! But it takes companies like the Labgroup to push the boundaries and question what we do, questioning is the essence of creativity.

A la Prochaine

Now it’s YOUR turn... If you are brave enough to have your product reviewed (cerebral and physical) send them by post with a release & photo to Editor’s Product Review, Kennedy’s Confection, 16 East St. Tonbridge, Kent, UK. Please, not too difficult to eat!

Gaining a competitive edge

The Dutch company, CFS Aquarius is driven by Lifecycle Performance. The result is an unrivalled range of versatile lollipop and confectionery packaging equipment that works at high speeds with minimum operator involvement, easy operation and cleaning and this combined with predictive maintenance, that considerably reduces downtime

n such a hugely competitive market, lollipop and confectionery producers must differentiate themselves from the competition.Clearly consumers need attractive wrappers and packages, so producers rely heavily on creative marketing to stand out from competitors at the Point of Sale. That means placing the fewest possible limitations on forming, wrapping and packaging shapes and materials.

experience: “We have been producing lollipop equipment for over half a century, and we know our customers’ businesses inside out. That has led to possibly the widest range of machines on the market. We produce single stand-alone machines, right up to complete lines for forming, cooling, wrapping and packaging. And because our customers need to innovate, we have made our machines outstandingly versatile.”

This customer requirement has spurred CFS Aquarius to develop what they claim to be the world’s widest range of lollipop forming, cooling and wrapping equipment. Kees Le Loux, Segment Sales Manager of lollipop equipment, puts much of CFS’ success down to

COVER STORY Sponsored Feature reduced film use, and allows for a wider range of types and qualities of film.

<< Continued

For hygiene and durability the CFS Aquarius BunchWrapper 400-S is manufactured in stainless steel and high-grade aluminium. All control and mechanical components are sealed in compartments to eliminate wear and tear, for example, by the entry of abrasive sugar dust. Options include a double film reel support, a PopCounter that automatically counts lollipops or rejects pre-defined imperfectly wrapped lollipops, and an automatic splicing system for changing wrapping material reels. Special features include a dust removal system (for instance when running with dextrose lollipops) and air-drying, to create a microclimate inside the production part of the machine to prevent sugar dust from becoming sticky. << Continued wide variety of possible bag styles as a major customer attraction. Output speeds are high, too. “Once lollipop and confectionery producers have developed a new line, they need highvolume, trouble-free production,” says Nomad. “Our packaging equipment is all designed and has proven to deliver just that.” When a new opportunity opens it is the time it takes to reach the market that can make or break a product line. New lollipop or confectionery bag shapes will need new wrappers and new packaging. Producers must subsequently be able to transfer between product lines quickly and faultlessly. CFS Aquarius is able to assist with this. The company’s focus on Lifecycle Performance means that there is extensive training, service and maintenance programs, and regular equipment and software upgrades. Customers can also benefit from the company’s Technology Centre in Weert in the Netherlands, along with a worldwide network of customer centres and agents for top-quality support and consultancy services. Unlimited lollipops The lollipop industry needs to continually create unique and exciting shapes and wrapping combinations. Manufacturers can select any shape: ball, cylindrical, flat or fancy, and can

go for solid or centre-filled lollipops in all shapes. Then, they can add an appealing finishing touch with a choice of wrapping material and style, such as bunchwrap, double twistwrap, seal twistwrap, sachetwrap and sandwichwrap. Specialised wrapping machines include the CFS Aquarius BunchWrapper, which has already won considerable acclaim for its quality and performance. The latest addition is the BunchWrapper 400-S that will be introduced at the ProSweets exhibition in Germany in January next year. Their BunchWrapper 400-S has a wrapping speed of 400 lollipops per minute, complementing the high-speed BunchWrapper 600 and 800 (600 and 800 per minute respectively). The 400-S shares all the advanced features of the range and is built to the same quality standards as its larger, faster brothers. Energy consumption is low due to the use of direct cable-less electrically heated diaphragms for sealing the wrapping material around the lollipop stick. Besides providing high-energy transfer and effective heating control, the new heating system makes it very reliable. Also a revolutionary (patented) film feeding and sealing system ensures precise positioning and

CFS Aquarius TwistWrapper can label on the inside of the wrap and assist with special promotions. The continuous machine has a doubletwist wrapping capacity of up to 1,000 ball lollipops per minute and uses less film (around 5% less) than intermittent machines. It also features a quick changeover to other lollipop sizes (1835 diameter/width). Temperature is controlled on each individual sealing station for consistently high sealing quality and, similar to the BunchWrapper, the machine accepts heat-sealable wrapping materials like cellophane, Continued >> CFS Aquarius BunchWrapper 400-S

CFS Aquarius Seal Twist wrapping style

polypropylene, laminates and wax paper. As with all the range of machines, the design considers reduced wear and failure on sensitive parts and is easy to clean, operate and service. CFS Aquarius is upgrading its TwistWrapper to handle the new CFS Aquarius ‘Seal Twist’ wrapping style that gives a fresh appearance to lollipops. The TwistWrapper also handles the patented CFS Aquarius Overlap Seal double-twist wrappers that significantly extend lollipop shelf life. Unlike regular double-twist lollipop wrappers, these are hermetically sealed, so no moisture reaches the lollipop, even when immersed in water. Vertical form-fill-seal for the confectionery industry Packaging equipment must provide a variety of options to meet the need for eye-catching confectionery packs and styles. The CFS SmartPacker accepts a range of materials in different formats ranging from standard flat pillow bags to: Quatro Seal, Block Bottom, Envelope, SmartPouch and Zipper bags. The vertical packaging machine combines high speed, quality and a reliable 24 hours a day operation. At over 400 bags per minute, the vertical bagging machine, the

SmartPacker TwinTube C is up to three times the speed of conventional lines. It achieves maximum efficiency when bagging small bags with a capacity range for party mixes and calorie packs. It also operates two parallel forming tubes from a single drive and can run a film reel for each drive, helping fill calorie packs of different widths and appearance simultaneously. Compact intermittent machines like the CFS SmartPacker SX have an excellent price/performance ratio. CFS Aquarius' special product between seal detection system has proven itself in the confectionery market by improving uptime and reducing cleaning and maintenance costs. Continuous film transport systems like the CFS SmartPacker C (X) can operate at a higher speed than intermittent machines, handling delicate film materials easily. At ProSweets, CFS Aquarius will introduce a new system to make complex bag styles like Quatro Seal and SmartPouch in continuous mode. Monitoring and improving performance As soon as market conditions get tough, companies often look to reduce operating costs instead of improving production. This is not always the right decision, because a closer look at the efficiency

of the production process may deliver better and more sustainable results. This is particularly important, since actual efficiencies are often far from optimum. Small changes in planning and on-time production may lead to huge cost savings. The question is: how to find and identify the issues involved? CFS CostFox helps operators understand and contribute to improvements. It displays the production performance of a machine in real time and where it belongs: on the operator panel. This data provides information like set-up time, line restrictions, speed loss and machine stoppages and failures. This enables operators to respond easily to events that affect performance, and eliminate the original causes of efficiency problems. And if the events are beyond the operator’s control, the stored information can be forwarded to the person responsible. Cost transparency has become key, which applies to the whole production process as well as the machinery used. And another benefit of the software is to demonstrate that the performance of CFS Aquarius machines, maintained 24 hours a day.

10 Things about

Holland:

The name the Netherlands refers to the low-lying nature of the country, ‘nether’ meaning low. picture courtesy of the Zaanse Schans Museum

k, I am now ready to start writing about this truly wonderful country and its people and I would like to thank those Dutch companies that provided us with so much candid information about Dutch people a n d t h e i r c u l t u re . You can’t write about Holland without picking up the phone and talking to the Dutch. I was told straight away, ‘you will find Dutch people all over the world and if you do not find Dutch people in a country, then you will not be able to make a living there!’

The Dutch believe in trade and in some ways invented modern trading as it is to this day...

The Dutch are robust, to the point, honest and have become known as some of the best negotiators in the world. I should know; I sold advertising to companies in Holland for over half of my life! Of course just because they are sharp on barter, does not mean in any way that you are going to get a bad deal. Moreover, the opposite, their attention to detail, service and quality is second to none. The Dutch believe in trade and in some ways invented modern trading as it is to this day. I have it on good authority that it was a Dutchman that founded New York City (not doubt you will correct me or verify it’s correct). In The Netherlands, a Dutch no means no, and a yes means yes. Where as in many other countries, in particular here in the UK a yes means, possibly, perhaps, maybe, or another time or I really don’t mean yes, but I want to say no in a nice way.

The name Holland is frequently used instead of the Netherlands, but it actually refers to the two Western coastal provinces, North and South Holland, which have played an important role in the country's history. With only 0.008 % of the world's area, the Netherlands is the world's third largest agricultural exporter after the USA and France. The Dutch are the tallest people in Europe. The Netherlands' favourite sweet is a salty liquorice called "drop". Rotterdam is the world's biggest seaport. Every Dutch person has a bicycle and there are twice as many bikes as cars. Only 5% of the population works in agriculture. You'll find a bunch of flowers in almost every Dutch living room. One quarter of the Netherlands is below sea level. Apparently, it was the Dutch sailors that introduced chocolate in Japan when they used to pay the prostitutes in chocolates in Nagasaki over 200 years ago.

The Dutch confectionery industry is doing surprisingly well. According to recent stats from Euromonitor, the Dutch confectionery market has grown from a value of 1271.2 million Euro in 2004 to 1511.9 million Euro in 2009. The top brand in the Netherlands still is Perfetti Van Melle’s ‘Klene’ closely followed by August Storck’s Merci and in the number 3 slot is Leaf’s Red Band. The confectionery market continues to remain robust and the highest growth area is the gum market scoring from 2004-2009 a 34 % increase over the past 5 years.

Kees Le Loux, Segment Sales Manager for CFS Aquarius lollipop equipment told Kennedy’s “The confectionery industry is as competitive as any other industry in

the world and to stay competitive in the lollipop business you need to continually create unique and exciting shapes and wrapping combinations. The CFS Aquarius FlexFormer lollipop machine, for example, manufacturers can choose for solid or centre-filled lollipops and they can select any shape, including ball, cylindrical, flat or fancy. The possibilities are almost endless.” Packaging is also high on the agenda for the group, Nomad van Bussel, Segment Sales Manager for CFS SmartPacker range adds: “Our vertical packaging equipment, the CFS SmartPacker provides a wide variety of options… lowering overall cost of ownership by maximising throughput and uptime. With our packaging solutions, manufacturers can bag all kinds of confectionery products in a wide range of packaging styles.” With it’s engineering and mechanical expertise, Duyvis Wiener has an impressive record in providing innovative solutions to the cocoa and chocolate industry. The company supplies turnkey plants, integrated processing lines, and stand-alone machinery and now with the combined forces of Wiener (since 2004), they are able to offer many more product innovations and solutions for the chocolate industry. They have a brand new test facility with both a cocoa and chocolate laboratory. The chocolate lab is specifically equipped for recipe development work and lab

Suppliers in Netherlands of course are known all around the globe for their equipment and innovative ingredients. Dutch companies continue to innovate providing some of the best equipment and ingredients on the market, so we had a round up to bring you news of some of the top suppliers and what we found in Holland and what they have to offer. Take CFS for example, CFS Aquarius (see page 18) has carved a niche out as being a leading supplier of lollipop manufacturing and packaging equipment. The group offers solutions that range from single stand-alone machines, to complete lines that handle forming, cooling, wrapping and packaging for lollipops and forming, drying and packaging lines for sugar cubes in addition to dedicated packaging solutions for confectionery.

INNOVATION FROM THE NETHERLANDS By Angus Kennedy << Continued scale production of real chocolate, compound chocolate, bread spreads, coatings, creams and fillings. In the cocoa lab, tests can be carried out on scaled cocoa processing equipment, including: liquor grinding, refining, cocoa butter presses, cocoa powder grinding and stabilisation plants. It is also possible to undertake tests and trials with different oil containing seeds. Duyvis was keen to tell us also about the QChoc, the all-in-one machine to produce real chocolate, which is an integral part of their new laboratory. The QChoc is available to perform in-house tests at their own facilities. And for small batches of coatings, compound and bread spreads, customers can test products with the Wiecon machine, an efficient and affordable plug and play system that is easy to install for use for manufacturing a variety of smaller quantities with lower investment. ADM Cocoa International (Archer Daniels Midland Company) has its roots going back to when it was known as De Zaan. The company now is a global supplier of cocoa and chocolate solutions in the business-to-business market. The company serves the confectionery, bakery, dairy, beverage and other food sectors throughout Europe with a comprehensive range of products from semi-finished cocoa liquors, cocoa butters and cocoa powders to the finest eating chocolates.

announcement to acquire the chocolate and cocoa producer, Schokinag in Mannheim, Germany. ADM Cocoa is best known for its premium De Zaan and Unicao brands of cocoa and chocolate solutions. This product portfolio is strengthened by the company’s 100-year, cocoa heritage of global sourcing and processing capabilities. The ADM global headquarters are based in Decatur, Illinois, and net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, were $70 billion. Lareka Confectionery Equipment B.V. employs about 35 enthusiastic people, with a team of passionate technicians. Incidentally we would like to thank Lareka for helping us with some of the back ground to this feature. Lareka’s roots go back to the tobacco industry where they began working in the confectionery packaging sector over 15 years ago using their extensive knowledge of high-speed cigarette packers. Lareka specialise in rebuilding and overhauling machines and more recently moved into providing some great new machines to the market providing a solid background of technical knowledge.

Caotech is well known for its CAO 3000 CHOC In-line installation. This latest development, as well as their CAO B2000-CHOC, are both fully automated processing lines for the production of chocolate and compound with capacities of 500 - 2000 kg per hour. There is a current trend within large and middlesized confectionery companies to replace 5-roller systems for a continuous ball mill process and Caotech are very well placed to meet this exciting demand.

Lareka’s introduced the TP75 DS last year for premium tablets in relatively small volumes Jeffrey Kloppenburg & Olaf Schepel in front of a chocolate production line at their newly extended premises

Tanis Food Tec have recently introduced two new machines, the RotoPlant, enabling biscuit manufacturers to make their own shortening and the new sheeter-depositor, the RotoSheeter.

Lareka produce machines not only for chocolate tablets and hollow figures, but they assist with: overhauling and optimising existing equipment, sourcing second hand equipment and overhauling and adapting machinery to the required size. Lareka is currently working on a new creative packaging solution which they plan, will be revealed at ProSweets - See Kennedy’s Confection January 10 issue.

The company’s sustained growth in the cocoa and chocolate business draws on ADM’s global position and financial stability. New processing facilities in Hazleton, Pennsylvania, USA, and Kumasi, Ghana, plus the recent

Caotech B.V. of Wormerveer, is a manufacturer of process equipment for cocoa, chocolate and compound production supplies turnkey projects. The company has now extended the factory 50% after consistent expansion. Jan Hammink, Managing Director, told Kennedy’s, “Having the additional space, we are able to produce more efficiently

The Rotoplant makes dough preparation easier by enabling producers to purchase their own oils instead of solid fats and make the correct shortening in-house. The oils subsequently can be stored in silos on site. In addition the Rotoplant

INNOVATION FROM THE NETHERLANDS By Angus Kennedy << Continued uses risk-free ice water as a cooling medium, instead of the ammoniac, glycol or other systems. The shortening produced on the RotoPlant is immediately ready for use, and no storage tanks for ageing are required. This is the result of the larger, scraped surface area that creates perfect control over the crystal formation. Other technical details include: automatic feeding to dough mixers, control over viscosities, and one control panel for all settings. It also includes a RotoTemp scraped surface heat exchanger and a RotoPlus continuous pin blender and five controlled warm & coldwater circuits. Tanis Food Tec’s RotoSheeter on the other hand, allows manufacturers to deposit multiple lanes in widths from 400 to 1200 mm. Specially for the continuous and pressure less depositing of all kinds of products on TFT processing lines. This includes the sheeting of cake batter on a steel band oven; creams on cake or wafers; caramel; jams and other semiviscous materials. The thickness of the sheet is equal over the full lane width and also adjustable from 1 to 10 mm. The RotoSheeter offers the possibility to process higher viscosity products thanks to its dual roller system, with one feed roll and one depositing roll. Amsterdam is still the most important international seaport for cocoa trading. According to DMN-WESTINGHOUSE (DMN), 500,000 tons of cocoa beans pass through the port. Being a Dutch company, DMN-WESTINGHOUSE consequently has had a long-standing experience in supplying components to the cocoa industries. DMN-WESTINGHOUSE specialise in producing components to prevent most problems that may occur when

production line and so on. This is where DMN step in. DMN produce the AL air lock and BL blowing seal rotary valves that can be adjusted specifically for handling cocoa, sugar, milk powder, flavourings and all other dry products that are used in the confectionery industry. They also manufacture an extensive range of diverter valves, namely, The TDV tube diverter. Recently the new 2-TDV and 3-TDV tube diverters were introduced. The M-TDV multiport (with 4 up to 14 ports) has been part of the diverter range for some years now. The whole range of tube diverters (2-, 3- and M-TDV) are of a sanitary design and have stainless steel AISI 316 product contact parts with a multiple choice of line connections, ranging from a simple pipe connection to a milk coupling. The swan neck pipe connecting the inlet to outlets is designed to give minimum product degradation in both conveying directions. All conveying lines that are not in use are also sealed at the diverter outlet. This ensures that there is no air or product leakage from destinations that are not being used. All DMN-WESTINGHOUSE rotary valves and diverter valves are optionally available. Founded as a distributor of moulds in 1947, JKV offers a complete range of chocolate moulds, tempering and moulding machines, accessories, and fancy packaging which appeals to the national and international demands of the chocolatier. In 1959, JKV created the famous JKV 30 wheel tempering machine that has sold over 12,000 units worldwide. In 1974 JKV started to produce and import chocolate moulds in polycarbonate, plexiglass, and makroform. JKV distributes their products to more than one hundred countries in the world for small and middle size manufacturers. JKV remains to this day a very innovative company and is highly recommended. Kennedy’s is pleased to report of a great new piece of hard candy processing equipment from The Tanis Group, the T-Rock and a new Twin Screw Extraction System.

INNOVATION FROM THE NETHERLANDS By Angus Kennedy << Continued The residence time is subsequently short and the mass is kept in motion to prevent any burning; important when producing mass containing proteins (milk components). The design The Tanis Group tells us, also enables cooking under vacuum, so keeping the temperature as low as possible; a technique which has proven its efficiency for all types of hard candy. The ’turbine cooker’ incidentally, discharges directly into the vacuum vessel where the vacuum extracts the moisture with one or two extraction devices. Closing the section from the atmospheric conditions enables more colour deposits possible. This closed system then allows for re-circulation of cooling water so not polluting the environment with contaminated ‘waste’ water. Tanis has also developed a Twin Screw Extraction System, which allows a vacuum level of 300 mbar absolute, based on a 45:55, glucose (38 DE): sugar ratio. This system is especially suitable for non-deposited products, viscous and or milk/fat containing products. After cooking and applying vacuum to the mass, one or more in-line continuous dosing systems can be used with the ‘Additive Mixing System’ with static inline - or dynamic mixers and dosing pumps for the addition of color, flavour and acid. Instead of injecting liquid additives or incorporating an extra dry material, an auger feeder can also be used to dose powder acid or decorating flakes into the dynamic ‘pin’ mixer. For hard candy to be processed (shaped) by die- or rotary chain former, an all stainless steel

tempering conveyor with different ‘tempering’ stages will bring the mass to the required temperature and plasticity. From here the mass can be fed directly into the batch-roller. Another great company from Holland is Extrufood, which has been supplying quality extrusion equipment to the confectionery industry since 1984. The company developed new extruders for the confectionery industry and especially for liquorice. Also the Diemix is worth looking at, which allows producers to make multicolour and multi flavours in one single product or several single coloured or flavoured products on the belt in a single run. Extrufood’s new Dieswitch makes this possible and can obtain colour changes within a single strand. The new Extrucenter is also open for customers to test new recipes and shapes. The centre is equipped with lab-extruders, a cooking lab-extruder and a state of the art form lab-extruder along with a cooling belt and a cutting machine to simulate a complete production line. Another company with its history going back to the Dutch cocoa trading roots of Holland is Cargill Cocoa & Chocolate. With manufacturing facilities in The Netherlands, produces a wide range of standard and customised cocoa and chocolate ingredients for bakery, confectionery and dairy applications. The product range includes Gerkens cocoa powders, chocolate, fillings coatings, cocoa liquor and butter. In the company’s facilities at Zaandam, cocoa beans are processed into cocoa liquor and the production of butter and powder is at its Wormer facility. A new a16 million plant at Deventer (see full report

Kennedy’s Confection May 09 issue), was completed this year and doubles the production capacity of their coatings and fillings. Cargill Cocoa & Chocolate has its own cocoa bean sourcing operations for buying, handling and exporting of cocoa beans in Côte d’Ivoire, Brazil, Cameroon, Indonesia and Vietnam. In addition, the company runs farmer education programmes in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire to improve bean quality and yields. Haas-Mondomix B.V., based in the Netherlands, is a business unit of the privately owned Haas Group, from Austria. One of their newest products is the High Speed Depositor, suitable for depositing all types of aerated chocolate creams, batters and marshmallows. The unit is capable of depositing at very high speeds; up to 300 rows per minute depending on the product. During dosing, the volume flow for each product is synchronised upstream of the nozzle exit by mechanically linked annular gear pumps. Thereby, the differences in the dosing weight can be kept within very close limits. At the end of dosing, a part of the mass will be retracted into the nozzles. This allows a clean and simultaneous cut off the mass at the nozzle exit, which further improves the quality of the products and the accuracy of the dosing weight. It is also possible to deposit precisely onto the product conveyor belt or into a mould at very high cycle rates. Other features include a changeable and flexible program, easy change outs of depositing tools and a small footprint. In 2008 in cooperation between HaasMondomix B.V. and Houdijk Holland (HMH), the company launched a Capper and Cream system for base cake handling and cream preparation.

K it’s not quite the first event that Kennedy’s have run. Kennedy’s have run conferences in the past and I am sure some of you will remember (or could you ever forget!) those events we ran and that particular time that still gets talked about today; the event where we took punts on the River Cam at night in Cambridge University with a nothing more than our thoughts and a bottle of matured Scotch on each boat. I like conferences!

Business is not what you make it, its what you make other people make it into, for you. The LICC, London International Confection Conference that is due to take place next month in London 1st – 2nd December, will be no exception. It will be held in the British Museum in London. Nearest tube station, Russell Square. Rather appropriate we learn, as the founder of the British Museum,

Some of the delegates attending:

Sir Hans Sloane ‘discovered cocoa for himself’ while he was in Jamaica, where the locals drank it mixed with water. Sloane devised a means of mixing it with milk to make it taste more pleasant and on his return to England brought his chocolate recipe back with him and by the nineteenth century, the Cadbury Brothers sold tins of Sloane's drinking chocolate. The LICC is all about making discoveries and learning from the past and moreover, tuning into future Confectionery product development. Conferences are also about coming away with the feeling that not only have you found out something interesting and useful to act upon, but you have been encouraged to perhaps think differently and have been able to discuss ideas and discover better solutions for the future profitability of your business. I still have contacts from the Kennedy’s conferences that I went to many years ago. Well they never forgot the punts on the River Cam! OK we do not have the River Cam here, but we do have the most spectacular venue to meet each other in. We can guarantee that your fellow delegates are coming for many of the same

reasons as you. So we made it particularly easy for you to meet people. Delegates coming to London next month will be in for some surprises. We have designed tables so that they are positioned in more sociable angles, there are plenty of coffee breaks to meet people and (the best bit for me), we shall have an evening drinks reception amongst some of the world’s most famous artefacts. Of course the papers are absolutely key to this event and Kennedy’s Editors have found the best speakers from all over the world to deliver what promises to be once in a lifetime conference. Business is not what you make it, it’s what you make other people make it into, for you. You can’t run a business without escaping from it from time to time and finding the right people there to help you build it. The LICC is at your disposal and we look forward to welcome existing readers and new ones to this exciting event. Bookings are accepted right up until 24 hours before the event starts on the 1st of December. So...

LICC London International Confection Conference

What is it worth to copy protect your chocolate? David Cruickshank of David Cruickshank Associates, who spent over 30 years at Cadbury Schweppes, will be presenting a paper at the LICC next month in London and looks as the pros and cons of protecting your chocolate recipes. The cocoa price is currently at a 24 year high, 2 years ago the price of milk powder peaked sharply and in 2009 the world price of sugar doubled in price. To add to this, Sterling has fallen against both the US Dollar and the Euro. Together with the recession, ingredient price volatility has put huge pressures on the costs of chocolate. Therefore it’s not uncommon for purchasers of chocolate to ask their suppliers for reformulation. Chocolate producers ask their product developers to reduce recipe costs. In addition the use of ingredients perceived to be premium such as roller dried milk powder, crumb and Ghana cocoa are questioned and CBEs are discussed or their specs are subtly rewritten. Old lags warn about the salami effect but are ignored. So all businesses seek to reduce costs and increase sales: reducing the manufactured cost of a product assists both if done thoughtfully and thoroughly. Optimising recipes should be a normal and continuing process, but the events of the last two years have pushed it up the priority list and increased the rate of change. Over the decades many once controversial developments have become the norm. In the 1920s adding cocoa butter to (dark) chocolate was considered controversial. Now the use of emulsifiers in chocolate has become almost universal and given lower total fat contents. The use of CBEs has become standard in many countries, especially the UK. Cheaper ingredients such as whey and lactose are increasingly seen on ingredient lists. Chocolate recipes in general are tending towards the minimum milk and cocoa contents that legislation allows. Chocolate for use on countlines, assortments and biscuits is nowhere near as sensitive to change as chocolate sold in moulded bars, so it is here that attention is concentrated. Ingredient suppliers have changed in similar ways to chocolate making companies. The dairy industry has also evolved with time, with a relatively small number of businesses replacing a multiplicity of local processors. Some ingredients such as block milk and white crumb have disappeared altogether. Spray dried milk powder is the norm while roller dried milk powder has become a small niche product that normally commands a price premium. A range of cheaper dairy fractions such as whey or lactose is now available. Whey, which used to be regarded as a waste product, is now a widely used major

commodity specifications.

available

several

One bespoke dairy product that has survived is milk crumb. Most chocolate makers that need crumb make their own, and because of the distinctive flavour it provides, its use has continued. A small tonnage of crumb is available from independent suppliers for the bulk chocolate makers to include in their customers’ recipes. Crumb, despite its additional expense, continues to be used in major branded moulded chocolate products for its flavour. Cocoa processing has also seen major change over the years, with processing in Europe dominated by a handful of major processors. Many chocolate makers have come to regard cocoa processing as a noncore activity, wrongly in my view, and decided to buy in all their requirements. This is normally done when re-investment is needed, but capital is required elsewhere. So relatively few chocolate makers now process their own cocoa. Despite the skills the major processors have in matching flavours, the diversity of flavours that used to exist, when each manufacturer had their own bean blend and processing conditions, has been reduced. There is also a move towards origin processing which gives significant cost advantages over processing in Europe.

The cocoa price is currently at a 24 year high... Lastly, buying chocolate has increased, with even the large chocolate makers buying in a proportion of their requirements. This was only for some of the low volume or difficult recipes, for instance white or origin chocolates. More recently though, many chocolate makers are increasingly turning to commercial bulk chocolate suppliers for more of their volume, again as a more palatable alternative to spending capital. One sees plenty of announcements in the trade press about bulk chocolate suppliers signing agreements or building new factories. So in chocolate making we have a situation analogous to cocoa processing, where what used to be a multitude of individual processes, with unique plant configurations and processing conditions, again being replaced by the much more uniform regime of the bulk supply industry. Individual chocolate factories that had

evolved over the years with their processes guided by innovations and developments, and sometimes compromised by mundane factors such as having to fit new plant into an old building. All these idiosyncrasies that gave unique contributions to flavour or texture, and contributed to the character of the product are gone. They are replaced by the uniformity of the suppliers’ efficient plant and optimised conche cycles. This is not meant to be an argument against progress. A large proportion of my professional life has been spent in product optimisation and I know how it works. But there are things other than money involved, or perhaps what I mean is, that there are things involved that are difficult to cost. So the capital cost of a new plant is easy to find out. You decide what you need and just get quotes. The cost of buying in cocoa products or chocolate to replace what you previously made is equally easy. The factors that are more difficult to cost and therefore often are not costed are such factors as loss or erosion of intellectual property as you teach suppliers how to make your products. Or the knowledge you lose when you stop processing cocoa or making white chocolate. Once the manufacturing goes, the knowledge soon goes too. But for me the biggest factor is this. If you are buying in chocolate that is made to a similar recipe as everybody else’s, using the same ingredients and the same plant and processes, then it’s not surprising that the chocolate will taste pretty much the same as everyone else’s. Gone is the individuality that used to arise from special bean blends, different roast conditions, and individual chocolate making processes. This individuality made it much more difficult for the chocolate to be copied and for me having a degree of copy protection built into the chocolate is as important as making sure that it complies with legislation. So the question is this. How do you cost copy protection in a recipe? How much extra are you prepared to pay in either ingredient cost or process cost to make your product harder to copy? Dave Cruickshank will be present at the LICC and will answer this question along with many others.

BAKERY NEWS The latest news from teh world of bakery

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s New in Bakery Novarin nominated for Food Valley Award 2009 Romi Smilfood, part of the Royal Smilde Food Group has announced that Novarin, the new range of industrial bakery margarines, was nominated for the Food Valley Award 2009. Romi Smilfood, as a supplier of margarine, oils and fats to the bakery industry, developed a healthy margarine concept: Novarin, a new generation of industrial margarines, applicable in a wide range of bakery products. The concept of Novarin consists of building elements: non hydrogenated fat (virtually zero trans fat), less saturated fat, less fat, natural ingredients and the possibility for nutrition claims. The customer can select and combine more of these elements to create healthier and tasteful bakery products. With Novarin it is possible to reduce the saturated fat content with at least 33% in cake, cookies, but also in croissants and puff pastry with no compromise in functionality and sensorial properties.

Loders launches Biscuitine 580 Loders Croklaan has added a new product to the range specialty filling fats - Biscuitine 580, a filling fat with quick and easy processing characteristics that is non-hydrogenated, free from trans fats and a moderate level of saturated fats. Biscuitine 580 offers the first zero-trans, easyto-process alternative for the slow crystallising filling fats that the chocolate confectionery industry is using to abolish trans fats, without increasing levels of saturated fat. In contrast to lauric filling fats that offer similar processing qualities, Biscuitine 580 achieves saturated fat reductions of more than 25% in the end product. Biscuitine 580 is the first of a new generation of non-temper filling fats for countlines and other chocolate confectionery as well as bakery

products like filled wafers.

Haas develops new Wafer sheet inspection system The Austrian company Franz Haas Waffel und Keksanlagen has developed a new wafer sheet inspection system (The Wis-Eagle). The new system increases the stability of the wafer production process and increases wafer plant efficiency by reducing downtime and improves product quality. A high-speed camera working with the transmitted light method photographs the wafer sheets discharged from the wafer sheet cooler downstream of the baking oven. Covering the entire surface of each wafer sheet, the system continuously checks the wafer sheets for surface damage and deviations in shape and colour. This process is based on parameters and tolerances, which can be freely adjusted. If the system confirms the correct condition of a wafer sheet, the sheet will be fed to the cream spreading machine, which is next in the line. If the system recognises deviations from the desired standard, the wafer sheet will be rejected thus preventing later troubles or production interruptions further down the line during creaming or cooling. The rope conveyor carrying the wafer sheets below the camera is driven by its own motor or is coupled to the next machine upstream or downstream. Contrary to previous systems working with light barriers, the new system recognises not only faulty edges, but also cracks, contaminations or colour differences on the surface of the sheets. Furthermore, manual adjustments are no longer necessary as it was the case with light barrier systems. The WIS-EAGLE visualises quality problems on a screen and provides detailed data for statistical analysis, which contributes to more transparency and improved cost control.

This data allow conclusions for improvements in batter depositing and baking. The inspection system can easily be retrofitted into existing lines. It provides a working speed of up to 100 wafer sheets/min with a maximal sheet size of 365 x 730 mm. Depending on the wafer plant configuration, the system has a maximal length, width and height of 1 m. Haas tell us that they possibly have one of the largest stands at ProSweets and Haas is looking forward to welcoming customers to the stand and to introduce this system along with their range.

Also this month... Cadbury looking at price but still takes a tough stance OCT 23rd, Cadbury has started the process of naming their price, reported on Times online to be £8.20p per share. Many shareholders have indicated, however, their wish to hold out for more at £8.50p per share, which is being indicated as a reasonable share price. Meanwhile time is running out as a bid must be made before the ultimatum. The Guardian online, in the mean time, reported that Cadbury’s finance director, Andrew Bonfield, has warned that the group's unique corporate culture would be lost if the company were to be swallowed up by a larger multinational group such as Kraft. He added, “Cultural aspects are always difficult to put a value on ... but we

believe ‘Cadbury's corporate ethos’ would be lost within a larger organisation ... There is the magic of Cadbury, which is important, particularly around our brands.” At the same time, Todd Stitzer, Cadbury CEO, stepped up in defense, warning of the ‘loosing what makes Cadbury great’. On 22nd October, Cadbury also issued strong quarterly figures and raised its sales and margin targets for this year, a move, analysts suggested, raised the pressure on its US suitor to revise its recently spurned £10.2bn cash and shares takeover approach for the confectionery group behind Dairy Milk, Trident gum and Halls sweets.

Health and wellness still on top as food labelling becomes increasingly important Brand new research (released 19th October) by Tate & Lyle indicates that consumers continue to see health and wellness as an important issue and will even pay more for foods that display health benefits on their labels. The findings are part of Tate & Lyle’s ongoing research into European consumer’s attitudes towards labelling, ingredients and shopping habits. The survey, conducted in July 2009, polled 1,565 people in five countries: Germany, France, UK, Spain and Italy. The results reveal an increasing awareness and sophistication amongst participants in their attitudes towards their diet and their perceptions of food labelling. For example, 53% of consumers often check nutritional information on-pack and 57% check the ingredient list at the back of a packaging, confirming their interest in labelling to determine if a product is healthy. At least half of consumers see less fat and sugar as important benefits, with 80% of respondents saying they would be prepared to spend more on specific claims which have so far been less common in some countries, such as ‘improving cardiovascular health’ and ‘helps to control cholesterol’. Other findings of the survey include: 20% of consumers are prepared to compromise on taste if the product is healthy; they feel that their diet is lacking in fibre in the case of young people and three out of four consumers claimed fructose to be their favourite sweetener with ‘polydextrose (fibre)’ among the most appealing.

Products to Watch Brand

Strand's Organic Meltdown's Fairtrade-certified Milk Chocolate with Hazelnuts & Currants, gives buyers the opportunity to enter a code on a website to tell consumers about the tree they have saved. The company has teamed up with The World Land Trust, and for every bar sold a tree is saved in an Ecuadorian tropical forest. Meanwhile, in France, ChocoLisa Classic Goat Milk Chocolate (right) is claimed to be the first w o r l d w i d e chocolate made with 100% certified organic goat's milk. Also two companies in Europe have used a cheese flavour while In Turkey, Alfred Ritter uses mascarpone cheese. Look out for the Hungarian company, Friesland Foods that has added cottage cheese to its Pöttyös range of TúróRudi Milk Chocolate Coated Cottage Cheese Bars.

Kellogg’s look at branding flakes This month we saw that Kellogg’s may have plans to burn its iconic logo onto every corn flake. The group has become so concerned over me-too cereal products, that it has developed a laser system to create a light toasted appearance of its logo on each corn flake without changing the taste. Kellogg’s plan some trial batches to see if the project can successfully stamp their authenticity on their products.

Also this month... Joke or no Joke

A recent study by the Royal College of Psychiatrists claimed that children who eat sweets and chocolate every day are more likely to be violent as adults. A study of almost 17,500 participants found that 10-year-olds who ate confectionery every day were significantly

more likely to have been convicted for violence at age 34 years. The study, published in the October 2009 issue of the British Jour nal of Psychiatry examined the long-term effects of childhood diet on adult violence. Researchers from Cardiff University found that 69 per cent of the participants who were violent at the age of 34 had eaten sweets and chocolate nearly every day during childhood, compared to 42% who were non-violent. The researchers put forward several explanations for the link. Lead researcher, Dr Simon Moore said: “Our favoured explanation is that giving children sweets and chocolate regularly may stop them learning how to wait to obtain something they want. Not being able to defer gratification may push them towards more impulsive behaviour, which is strongly associated with delinquency.”

They did, however indicate that the association between confectionery consumption and violence needs further attention. Julian Hunt, Food and Drink Federation (FDF) Director of Communications has been quick to react: “This is either utter nonsense or a very bad April Fool’s Day joke! Anti-social behaviour” , he added “stems from deep-rooted social and environmental factors, such as poor parenting and a deprived upbringing and is not linked to whether or not you ate sweeties as a kid.” Joke or no joke, there is a growing consumer awareness of high sugar and confectionery consumption being linked to ‘bad behaviour’ and it is certainly an area that the industry is preparing for over the next few years. There are almost certainly going to be many more studies on this subject.

Innovative solution for twist packaging PETWIST SuperFilm of Trurkey have received the Golden Packaging Competition Award from the Turkish Standards Institute (T.S.E.) for their PETWIST brand, a twistable BOPET film. This is their 7th award at the Golden Packaging Competition. The majority of flexible packaging, claim SuperFilm, is closed by heat seal or cold seal adhesives. However for small confectionery products such as candies, fruit and toffee bars and similar food items, twistable packaging films are commonly used. PVC and CPP films are widely used for such products. PVC has excellent twistability property but because of food contact regulations, it needs a wax paper or similar type of product separating the PVC from direct contact with the food product. Meeting this need a new type of film was required making direct food contact possible with an excellent twist. Super Film’s PETWIST is a twistable BOPET film. The PETWIST 1011 MBY is available as transparent version, non heat sealable and one side chemically treated twistable film. They also offer a metallised version, the BT 1031 MBY. These films have significantly improved twistability for high-speed packaging applications.

Hotelships offer viable alternative to hotels in Cologne Kennedy’s is pleased to report that Pressplan of the UK, a specialist business travel company, is able to offer readers a first class ‘one call books all’ accommodation and travel service for ISM and ProSweets next January. Pressplan will have a first class hotel ship moored in the centre of Cologne for easy and convenient access to the exhibition

grounds. The ship (which Kennedy’s has stayed at before) offers all the comfort of a 4 Star + hotel but at 3-Star prices. The accommodation includes a stylish restaurant serving hot and cold buffet breakfast plus select evening menu and elegant lounge/bar. When Kennedy’s stayed at these ships before it was difficult to get an evening meal on them and this is something that is a big improvement and something that was not on offer a few years ago. Cabins are surprisingly spacious and come equipped with comforts of a first class hotel room. Prices start from around £185 per night inclusive of breakfast based on single occupancy. For those readers who prefer to

stay on dry land, Pressplan tell us they can offer an extensive choice of centrally located hotels ranging from 2 Star to 4 Star upwards and all of their recommended hotels have been selected for their high standard of comfort, and locations to the fairgrounds. Prices start at around £128 per night.

My Factory, My Day Bernd Postma, Managing Director, Delicia b.v. Tilburg, The Netherlands. www.delicia.nl I thought it was a crazy idea at first when the editor of Kennedy’s Confection magazine asked me last week to write a new regular column about the trials and tribulations of running one of Holland’s most famous chocolate factories. But actually, the more we talked into the night (we were at Dumoulin’s coating conference in Paris) it came apparent to both of us of what an original feature this would be. I told Angus I didn’t have time for this and then he said good you are perfect, then you must do it, so we shook on it and here I am telling the world every month about my world of producing and coating chocolate and many other products. I am the managing Director of Delicia B.V. in Holland, for those of you that don’t know who we are, we started off producing chocolate vermicelli, the no 1 sweet bread spread in the Netherlands and now we can just about coat anything and like every one else in the industry, we face common problems and I know I am not alone.

Let's dance as if it’s an art and not a labour Last week we had a management gathering of the top 20 managers of our company and we sat down together and discussed the developments of trials and tribulations of the past year. It was a mixture of reflection and feedback and we wanted to finalise agreements and firm up plans for the year ahead in 2010. I believe it was a really good meeting as it gave us all the opportunity to test and set the mindset of our business as a whole for 2010. It’s fair to say that our company and probably many others, have been confronted with some developments in the world that have had quite an impact on the market and on production. Just to name a few: a new president in the US, credit crisis, Mexican flu, retail price wars, strong price fluctuations of our raw materials, introduction of WCM and major investments in new technologies. How can we cope? It was at this meeting that the notion came to me. It was a tough meeting and there are often no clear ways forward. I just thought about the phrase ‘Learn to dance...’ In that meeting a few guys we were quite frustrated and said; "How long can we go on like this?" But I believe that all companies and their people do have a tremendous ability to cope and even enjoy rapid change. But did we forget how to achieve that? The urge to control, uphold the status quo seems to be the survival theme for many people and companies of today. 2009 has shown that the solutions of yesterday may not be helpful today. I believe we should trust our abilities to adapt, create and go with the flow above all, have less stress and more success. We have now set our plans for 2010 and they are challenging and ambitious. My job is ever more challenging and the management message of work hard, enjoy and take part in the change will win. Let's dance as if it’s an art and not a labour like the art of Delicia that makes life Delicious.

CASE STUDIES IN ROBOTICS By Angus Kennedy

Case Studies in Robotics

Technology in Robotics advances every month and we took a round up of recent developments and case histories in the area of Robotics. Case Study Schubert TLM Picker line In Japan, slices of bread and baked goods are lightly toasted or even baked twice and there are differences in size and shape from one slice to another. The task for Schubert was to transfer 240 slices of product per minute from the cooling tunnel, place two slices on top of each other in the chain of the Fuji flowwrap machine and make sure that the upper slice is always the smaller of the two. Placing the slices in this fashion is necessary in order to not mislead the consumer. The Schubert TLM picker line was chosen which is able to synchronize with the in feed chain of the flow-wrap bag machine with an average speed of 305 mm a second. The TLM-F4 robot units also operate virtually silent. At accelerations of 10 G, they achieve speeds of up to 5m per second. Two F4 units, controlled by a controller and housed in a machine frame, comprise the TLM-F44 picker station. Two picker stations were combined to form one picker line for the HARADA packaging line. The products enter the machine via a continuously running conveyor belt. The art of the picker line is to adapt it to the product flow in such a way that all good products are picked up from the belt and, in spite of irregular production, to ensure that no packages are empty or partially filled. TLM picker lines have been developed for this purpose, with their patented counter-directional workflow and their control design. This design allows the robot arms to independently coordinate which one places what component where.

A gripper, specially developed for Harada, picks up each slice of bread after it has run through the TLM image processing system. The difficulty here was that the slices of bread are extremely breakable. Anything that does not meet the quality specifications or is not an exact match is left lying on the belt.

traditional robotic arms are often modelled on human arms Case Study 2 Matrox Imaging Library and Bosch to team up with the delta robot sort biscuits The delta robot from Bosch has been a fixture in assembly lines for over 20 years. As we have reported before it’s lightweight, nimble, and flexible. Bosch

tells us that traditional robotic arms are often modelled on human arms, where the motion of successive joints is dependent on bulky actuators and transmission mechanisms. The weight of these devices burdens the robot and slows the production speed. In contrast, the delta robot, invented at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédéral de Lausanne (EPFL), has enjoyed many successes on the plant floor. Structured like an upside-down tripod, its three double legs form three closed loops, called “joint plan polygons”. Each joint depends on the others, so if one segment moves, the others ‘follow’ changing the whole polygon structure. Furthermore, the polygon structure means that actuators are not required on every joint, like they are in traditional robots. So on a delta robot, the actuators and transmission mechanisms can be placed away from the joint segments. Moving the clunky equipment away from the joints allows the delta robot to accelerate at a rate that’s ten times faster than gravity. A major European cookie and chocolate maker is one of several clients who work with Bosch to improve the efficiency of their factories. In one plant, this manufacturer outputs 30 million packages a year, and they contain over 80 different types of assorted cookies. This manufacturer needed a solution that could support the wide variety of products and a high throughput. The Astor line of robots was chosen. The Astor features a vision-guided delta robot that can pick and place 140 units per minute. In this cookie packaging installation, there are eight robot cells on the plant floor that collectively sort 1120 cookies per minute. Each cell sorts one

CASE STUDIES IN ROBOTICS By Angus Kennedy or two cookie varieties for the package. As the blister tray passes each work cell, the robot stacks three or four cookies in the appropriate section of the blister tray. The robot cell is powered by a CELL in-house designed PC. Before a batch is packaged, an operator specifies the products and tray type that the robot will handle. A Sony XC-HR50 greyscale camera is installed inside an enclosure at the top of the machine. As the cookies travel, a Matrox 4Sight M embedded vision system signals the camera and a Matrox Meteor-II/MultiChannel frame grabber acquires the images. The image acquisition and analysis software is based on the Matrox Imaging Library (MIL). Geometric pattern matching algorithms determine the shape and locate the specific cookies the robot must pick up. Greyscale analysis subsequently determines the quality of the cookie and even the quality of the chocolate coating on the cookie. The analysis results also prevent the robot from placing broken or over-baked cookies into the package. Finally, the robot must place the top cookie right-side up in the tray; the image analysis ensures that the upside-down cookies don’t make it to the top position in the stack.

Then ProSweets Cologne is the trade fair for you, with like-minded people and all the recipes for success that you could ever need. The fair runs parallel to ISM and it’s quick and easy to get to us from there. Come along – and bring your sweet tooth with you. If you want to find out more or want to let us know what you would like to see at ProSweets Cologne, we’d be happy to help.

Sprinkles, nuts, and other challenges “The project demanded a lot of flexibility from a software standpoint,” said Dragojlovic, project manager, Bosch Packaging. “We needed the vision system to adapt to the variety of cookie shapes and sizes as well as colour and shade to check for doneness. And with each circle, square, rectangle, triangle, heart and cigar located in an image, we had to be sure that the acquired image is accurate,” he added. Good image results depend on proper illumination, and Dragojlovic says “illuminating the work cell was a challenge”. Chopped nuts and sugar sprinkles create shadows on cookies. Shiny chocolate coatings reflect light. Shadows and reflections are an image’s worst enemy because they can interfere with the results. The software also had to account for parallax. In addition, the operator interface used during deployment required flexibility and simplicity, so the plant staff could easily set up the system for a different product on the feed line, “ he said.

Be wise when you advertise As a rule, our advertisers don't trust their marketing budgets to random passers by or lottery tickets. No... they put it our way because ABC audited circulation figures show exactly where every penny of their advertising spend goes. Unless Daddy owns the company, we imagine you also care enough about your job not to fritter away your own budget.

CANDID Light and virtually fact free...

CANDID Light and virtually fact free

shouldn’t strictly do this but I would like to make an announcement that sells Kennedy’s a little. Candid is normally strictly sales free and self-PR free too. But every now and then, as in this instance, I simply ran out of editorial space like a kid that keeps on running at sports day and goes whizzing on past the finish line. So listen up, as he says unravelling the scroll and standing on the street corner. “Kennedy’s is launching a new magazine to the international food industry called Food and Drink Production.” It’s a long story, but many of you will remember the Healthy Foods and Snacks Magazine (est. 1981) that we publish and it’s quite clear that we needed to offer a more regular magazine that meets the growing needs of the international reader within the food production sector. A journal that is as good as, well, Kennedy’s Confection! We believe we have come up with just the answer.

“THANK YOU IN ADVANCE” It’s rather like launching a confectionery product. You have this feeling it’s right, the world says no, but you just can’t shed the feeling that if it’s done well, then it’s a yes, and there is certainly room for a fully international food and drink production journal. A magazine, I might add, that people do actually enjoy reading too. Are we getting carried away? Perhaps we are? But no one goes forward without a risk and already, the response to this wonderful journal has been most positive. The new magazine based on our original journal, will come out 6 times next year and we will be at FIE presenting it for 2010 and the Jan 2010 issue will be available at ProSweets too. So I thank you in advance for considering this new magazine from Kennedy’s.

“WHY ARE THEY LAUGHING?” Finally I do not want to disappoint you by not offering you a good dose of complete nonsense to bring us back down to earth. It’s good to laugh and with Christmas shopping on the horizon I think its completely essential. Last Sunday, I went to London for a walk in the park with the family. My kids had some hand puppets and decided to put them on their heads. OK so what? They put them on their heads as it would be quote, ‘more funny’. Unwittingly, as I was walking ahead of them, I did not realise why all the people walking past us were falling over themselves pointing and laughing at us. I turned around and saw (pictured below) my two kids re-inventing the toy. These puppets were made to go on kids hands but it was interesting to see that they had become an instant hit when worn as a hat. I made more friends in that afternoon than in the whole of 2009! I think I will wear one myself when I go Xmas shopping and perhaps I might be able to spend less this year! Best wishes, Angus
