Encapsulation kit for filled cookies

Related tags Butter Baker perkins

An encapsulation system enabling high-value filled cookies to be made on any Baker Perkins wirecut machine is now available.

For the first time, filled cookies totally enclosed by dough can be made on a module attached to a standard wirecut machine – previously, a separate unit was necessary.

Fillings can include any ingredients that are low enough in viscosity, including chocolate, caramel, cream, peanut butter or jam.

The optional encapsulation module and iris cutter can be fitted to any new or installed Baker Perkins wirecut to convert the machine from a standard unit to one that can do both cookies and encapsulated cookies.

The process involves pumping a continuous stream of filling into the centre of the dough cylinder formed at the wirecut die. A set of iris-die cutters crimp the dough and filling, forcing the dough to completely enclose the filling.

Once the encapsulated cookies are on the conveyor band they pass under a tamping or gauging roll, which flattens them slightly. This ensures that the cookies achieve a uniform thickness.
