Status of sugar production and consumption

Status of sugar production and consumption

Major raw sugar producing countries and regions include: Brazil, EU, India, China, Thailand, Australia, Cuba, South Africa, etc. Global raw sugar production reached a record 131.62 million tons in 1998/99 and is expected to be 131.3 million tons in 1999/00. The world's major markets for trading sugar include the United States Coffee, Sugar, and Cocoa Exchange (CSCE), the London Commodity Exchange (LCE) in the United Kingdom and the Tokyo Sugar Exchange in Japan. my country's sugar production has shown an increasing trend in recent years. It was 5.41 million tons in 1994/95, 6.25 million tons in 1995/1996, 6.8 million tons in 1996/97, 8.16 million tons in 1997/98, and 8.83 million tons in 98/99. /2000 annual production will decline. The origin of sugar in my country is mainly concentrated in: Guangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan, Hainan, Fujian, Heilongjiang, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and other provinces and autonomous regions. Cane sugar is in the south, beet sugar in the north, and cane sugar accounts for more than 80% of the national sugar production. Guangxi has ranked first in the country for 5 consecutive years in sucrose production, with an annual output of 3.82 million tons in 1998/1999. Due to the rapid development of the domestic food industry, beverage industry, catering industry and other sugar-using industries, the consumption of sugar has increased significantly in recent years, and the total social consumption has increased from 3.8 million tons in 1980 to more than 8 million tons in 1999; per capita intake Sugar is 6.7 kilograms, but it still only accounts for about 1/3 of the per capita sugar consumption in developed countries; according to experts, as the population continues to grow and living standards improve, my country's sugar consumption will further increase.

Hard candy making features

Hard candy making features

The basic material for hard candy is granulated sugar, which accounts for 60% to 75% of hard candy. The problem of hard candy manufacturing is how to turn crystallized sugar into an amorphous solid. After the sugar is dissolved in water, it changes from a crystalline state to an amorphous state, which needs to be dehydrated and concentrated. When the pure sugar solution is dehydrated and concentrated, the final product is still a crystal. In order to obtain an amorphous and non-crystalline substance, it must be added. Substance, this substance can improve the solubility of granulated sugar solution, so that the granulated sugar solution does not crystallize when it is supersaturated. On the other hand, by increasing the viscosity of the sugar solution, the molecular motion of the granulated sugar solution to rearrange into a crystal form can also be slowed down.

Sugar cooking machine safety operation rules

Sugar cooking machine safety operation rules

1 Preparation: 1.1 Turn on the power. 1.2 Open the steam valve and remove the condensed water in the pipeline. 1.3 Open the compressed air valve] 1.4 Open the cooling water valve 1.5 Turn on the jacket insulation temperature control switch, set the control temperature, and heat the water to the set value. 2 Production: The machine has four working modes, namely "single-action", "semi-automatic", "full-automatic", "cleaning". "Single-action operation, the operator can press the feeding according to the process requirements", "boil" , "vacuum", "unloading", "slow stirring", fast stirring", accessories", "seasoning", ", unloading", reset and other buttons to operate, the reset button is often used to end the current work during the operation . Note: When single-action operation is strictly prohibited, click the unloading button before the sugar mass in the stirring pot is fully discharged, otherwise the sugar body will be scrapped. 3 Cleaning: It is essential to clean the equipment after each shift. 3.1 Place the function switch on the electrical control panel to "Clean" 3.2 Press the feed switch; the machine will pump the hot water in the "storage bucket" into the sugar boiling pot", after the water in the storage bucket is pumped out, press the reset button to stop feeding or press the boil Press the button to start the cooker and stop the feed at the same time. 3.3 Press the "Boil" button, the "Boiler" starts to heat, and when the water in the "Boiler" boils, press the "Reset" button to stop heating or press the "Boil" button to stop and turn on the heating Unloading valve. When cleaning, the unloading valve is set to jog work, so it needs to be manually pressed when unloading. Press the feeding button to open the feeding valve, and it is required to move several times when feeding, so that the feeding valve can be washed clean. 3.4 Press the "auxiliary material button, open the auxiliary material" valve, and manually clean the hopper with hot water. 3.5 Press the "quick stirring button" to make the rotor in the stirrer rotate rapidly to clean the stirrer. After fast stirring for 3 minutes, press the reset button to stop stirring. 3.6 Press the "unloading button", the machine will automatically close the "auxiliary valve" and the exhaust valve" and start to the mixer, and open the unloading valve at the same time. The discharge button is required to be moved several times during the discharge process, so that the discharge valve can be cleaned. 4 Safety matters: 4.1 Before starting the machine, remove all tools and other irrelevant objects in the operating area. 4.2 Compressed air, steam and power must be turned off when the machine is not in use. 4.3 Never make the machine run at a speed, pressure or temperature that exceeds the specified limits.

Candy Industry Market Research Candy Industry Prospects

Candy Industry Market Research Candy Industry Prospects

As one of the two traditional pillar snack industries in my country, the candy industry has maintained rapid growth and its potential market share has continued to expand. In terms of output, China's candy output in 2021 will be 3.0132 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 2.36%. In terms of production distribution, Chinese candies are mainly distributed in Fujian, Guangdong, Hubei, Shanghai and Sichuan. In 2021, Fujian candy production will be 903,000 tons, Guangdong candy production will be 662,000 tons, Hubei candy production will be 326,000 tons, Shanghai candy production will be 203,000 tons, and Sichuan candy production will be 179,000 tons. From the perspective of market share, foreign brands have long dominated my country's candy market, namely Mars, Nestle, Alps, Mondelez International and Ferrero, and domestic brands Hsu Fu Chi and Golden Monkey have also been acquired by foreign companies Nestle and Hershey. For a long time, my country's candy industry has been surpassed by foreign capital due to lack of innovation, insufficient branding and lack of marketing methods. From the perspective of the candy industry chain, the upstream industries mainly include raw materials such as sugar, starch, and dairy products, as well as food additives, food packaging materials, etc.; The downstream of the industry is the sales link, which is sold through various channels such as supermarkets, convenience stores, and e-commerce platforms, and finally sold to end consumers. With the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of consumption power, the domestic market is constantly being developed, and the emergence of new products not only promotes economic growth, but also further promotes the diversified distribution of the market. my country's candy industry is facing the demand pattern of small products and large markets. Candy production enterprises are in the stage of structural adjustment, product renewal, survival of the fittest and corporate restructuring. As the market operation of confectionery is completed from product competition to marketing, the candy industry has entered the era of brand competition.
