Production process outline.
Sugar is ground very fine in the grinder. It is then mixed with the required
quantities of edible gum, water, flavours, emulsifiers and then extruded in the
extruder. The resulting product emerges in the form of strips which is cut to
desired lengths and wrapped in the wax paper by the wrapping machine. The
product passes through a cooling tunnel wherein the product acquires a rigid
texture. The strips are then covered with a paper wrapper and then packed in
cartons for dispatch.
