Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved apparatus and process for packaging discrete food products in a single serving container, to the containers and to the discrete food products themselves .
- discrete food product is meant a unit (eg a portion, helping or serving) of a food product which may satisfy a typical individual .
- US-A-47984273 discloses one such single serving container comprising a triangular frangible arrangement which is easily opened and readily allows removal of a discrete food product.
- FR-A- 2681576 An apparatus and process for packaging discrete food products (eg fresh or frozen products) is disclosed in FR-A- 2681576.
- a fully automated system for cutting and packaging discrete food products is described which improves the desired quality and output by utilising very high pressure, water jet cutting systems. This proves to be particularly useful for less robust food products where excessive manual handling may adversely effect product presentation and marketability.
- the present invention is based on the recognition that certain edible materials may be used during packaging of a discrete food product in a single serving container to improve the longevity of the discrete food product.
- the present invention provides a process for packaging a discrete food product in a single serving container comprising the steps of: individualising a discrete food product on the base member of the single serving container; positioning an upper closure member on the base member; characterised in that the process comprises delivering (eg spraying) an edible material to a portion of the base member and/or to the surface of the discrete food product individualised on the base member of the single serving container.
- the present invention provides an apparatus for packaging a discrete food product in a single serving container comprising: a means for delivering (eg spraying) an edible material to a portion of a base member of the single serving container and/or to the surface of the discrete food product individualised on the base member of a single serving container.
- an edible material is delivered to the surface of the discrete food product on the base member to combat the penetration of oxygen.
- a thin film of edible material may be sprayed onto the discrete food product to close its pores and prevent oxygen penetration. This advantageously lengthens the shelf life of the discrete food product.
- an edible material is delivered to a receiving portion of the base member of the single serving container. Thereafter, the upper closure member may be positioned on the base member with the assistance of the edible material which may provide a substantially airtight seal between the base member and the upper closure member.
- the edible material withstands ingress of oxygen and other deleterious materials such as moisture and bacteria and the shelf-life of the discrete food product is therefore increased.
- a preferred edible material comprises a fat (eg vegetable or animal fat) in a suitable form (eg an emulsion) .
- a fat eg vegetable or animal fat
- a suitable form eg an emulsion
- the edible material is product- related ie tailored according to the discrete food product being packaged. It may be, for example, an ingredient of the discrete food product so that the process advantageously does not affect the taste or appearance of the discrete food product.
- hardened vegetable fat is a preferred edible material.
- preferred edible materials are coconut fat or particularly cocoa butter.
- Aspic or a spicy vegetable are preferably used.
- the edible material may be chosen to directly influence the appearance and taste of the individualised discrete food product as desired.
- the edible material eg vegetable fat
- the edible material may be pre- prepared at a temperature above its melting point and delivered in fluid form so that in contact with the single serving container or discrete food product (eg a chilled food product typically at 6°C) it solidifies.
- the solidified edible material thereby assists in sealably connecting the base member and upper closure member of the single serving container.
- cocoa butter melts at 32°C and at 20- 22°C has a gluing effect. It is therefore useful for packaging chilled or frozen discrete food products.
- an edible material When an edible material is delivered onto a discrete food product in accordance with the invention, it has the effect of closing pores on the surface as hereinbefore described. However, in some instances, it may also preserve the integrity of the discrete food product itself and allow delicate food products to be packaged in a discrete form. Thus the quality and appearance of the discrete food product is improved.
- canapes open faced sandwiches
- the upper closure member is provided with integral upstanding pillars which penetrate the canape thereby providing further support to the delicate canape until the consumer opens the package.
- a preferred embodiment of the process of the invention comprises a step in which indicia are plotted on the individualised food product. This may be conveniently carried out after the delivering (eg spraying) step. If the product is cold, the warm edible material hardens rapidly thereby allowing plotting with coloured spray indicia such as names or decorations.
- the present invention provides a single serving container comprising a base member for holding the discrete food product and an upper closure member, wherein said base member incorporates a receiving portion capable of receiving an amount of an edible material, wherein said receiving portion engages a complementarily shaped portion of said upper closure member.
- the receiving portion of said base member encapsulably engages said complementarily shaped portion of the upper closure member. This may be achieved by a pushing or sliding action or the like.
- the base member comprises a floor with an upstanding wall around the perimeter thereof which is provided with an outwardly disposed lip, wherein said lip is provided with a receiving channel (eg a recess or groove) into which edible material may be delivered.
- the upper closure member is provided with an upstanding flange whose shape complements that of the receiving channel in the base member.
- the base member may be formed of a heatable (eg microwaveable) material so that the discrete food product may be heated in si tu on the base member and consumed therefrom.
- a heatable eg microwaveable
- the upper closure member may be provided with one or more upstanding pillars which penetrate the discrete food product and help maintain its integrity when the upper closure member is positioned on the base member to form the single serving container.
- the container is provided with a tamper indicator such as a label extending over the exterior of the container eg over a portion of the upper closure member and a portion of the base member.
- a tamper indicator such as a label extending over the exterior of the container eg over a portion of the upper closure member and a portion of the base member.
- the discrete food product when packaged may be an integral part of a "multi-pack" ie a package in which the separately packed discrete food products are located on a common base member (eg a tray) .
- the step of individualising discrete food products comprises one or more successive cutting steps using a high pressure water jet (eg as described in FR-A-2681576) . Thereafter, individualisation may be continued in a separate packaging unit where the discrete food product may be introduced onto a base member of the single serving container (eg as described in FR-A-2681576) . If desired, prior to cutting, the food product may be chilled or frozen and the process carried out at low temperature to maintain the chilled or frozen state.
- the apparatus according to the invention is provided with one or more adjustable means for spraying edible material onto the discrete food product located on the base member and/or into the receiving portion of the base member of the single serving container.
- the apparatus may also be provided with spray generating means eg heating means and a compressor.
- the one or more adjustable means may take the form of one or more adjustable nozzles.
- the or each adjustable nozzle is capable of three- dimensional adjustability to allow the appearance and taste of the discrete product to be optimised.
- a discrete food product eg a cheesecake
