The dragee lentil line uses cooled rollers to form chocolate lentils. Chocolate is dosed between the rollers, where the embossed surfaces shape the product. The rollers are cooled to help set the chocolate as it passes through.

The rollers are cooled to a low temperature, helping the chocolate set as it passes between them.
