Starch mogul

[1] These softer candies and centers are made by filling a tray with cornstarch, stamping the desired shape into the starch, and then pouring the filling or gel into the holes made by the stamp.

[1] The starch mogul system is a method of molding candy that allows for the use of materials that are more runny compared to normal processes.

During this time, the starch helps absorb excess water, making the candy moldings handleable.

[2] Finally, the trays are dumped and the candy is separated from the starch, which is then dried and reused by the machine.
