Tips for using the manual candy making machine for confectionery ball forming

To get the most out of the Martellato Ball Former Machine, follow these tips for effective use and optimal candy quality:

1- Prepare the candy mix carefully: Before feeding your candy mixture into the machine, ensure it’s at the right temperature and consistency. Hard candies need to be pliable enough to mold but firm enough to hold their shape. Pre-portioning the candy dough will make it easier to load into the machine and form evenly sized balls.

2- Operate with a steady rhythm: The manual operation means that your pace will affect the consistency of the results. Maintain a steady rhythm while turning the handle or lever to achieve a consistent size and shape. This approach is particularly useful when working with multiple batches and ensures a professional, uniform appearance.

3- Allow candies to cool and set properly: Once the candy balls are formed, place them on a cooling rack or parchment-lined tray to let them set. Proper cooling is essential to preserve their shape and texture, especially if you plan to coat or decorate them further.
