Chocolate Filling Production
Build industrial filling production lines for pralines, bars, and baked goods. Specify, configure, and integrate systems with Premier Forrester.
Fillings are at the centre of many chocolate and confectionery products, providing flavour, texture, and differentiation. From pralines and truffles to bars with layered centres, fillings must be produced with consistency and controlled viscosity to ensure smooth integration into moulded shells or baked goods.
For manufacturers, the challenge lies in achieving reliable dosing at scale while maintaining flexibility for different recipes and formats.
At Premier Forrester, we make sure every system is specified to meet your throughput, footprint, and recipe requirements, ensuring repeatable results across different product ranges.
Chocolate filling production process
The production of fillings begins with preparing a base mixture, often using chocolate, fat compounds, nut pastes, or fruit preparations.
The base is blended to the correct viscosity and aeration level, ensuring it can be deposited cleanly into shells, bars, or enrobed products.
Stabilisation steps such as tempering or controlled cooling follow, giving the filling the correct texture and shelf life.
Depending on the application, fillings may be whipped, layered, or combined with inclusions before final packing.

Chocolate filling production - need to know
- Blockers and bottlenecks: Inconsistent viscosity or poor temperature control can lead to inaccurate dosing and waste.
- Product variations: Fillings range from smooth ganache to aerated centres or chunky inclusions, each requiring different equipment setups.
- Batch size: Small batches allow recipe flexibility, while large-scale production demands robust controls to maintain quality and reduce downtime.
Talk to Premier Forrester about filling production
Producing fillings at scale requires more than the right machinery – it takes knowledge of recipes, process integration, and downstream handling. With more than 25 years in the chocolate and confectionery sector, Premier Forrester helps manufacturers design, configure, and support filling lines.
