Description
A23G encompasses processing, formulation, and manufacturing technologies for chocolate, cocoa-based products, confectionery items, chewing gum, and ice-cream, including methods for preparation, treatment, and preservation of these products. The classification covers cocoa substitutes and functional additives integrated into sweet foodstuffs, as well as equipment and processes specific to their production. It excludes non-food applications of cocoa derivatives and addresses the technical aspects of formulation, texturing, and preservation rather than nutritional or therapeutic claims.
