How do they put the chocolate on maltesers?

Just wondered - any ideas?

It's like that when they pick them off the malteser trees. That's how you know if they are ripe.

I'm glad I looked:

"The same way Brits or Yanks are made. A male and female get together and - presto! - nine months later a little Malteser appears."

Making Maltesers is easy. How do they make "Aero"?

edit: it gets better!!

This is to weed out the lumpy maltesers; apparantly they don't roll properly and end up at the bottom of the track. But I saw some siamese maltesers get through successfully.

Best answer wins a do-nut.
E-E in the lead so far, although the Guardian is a close second with the male/female comment

They fill a rabbit with chocolate, and then force feed it big rice crispies..
Hey Presto!
HTH.

· Firstly the malt dough (same as horlicks) is baked in a special 'fan bed' oven which keeps the honeycomb centres suspended above the oven bed on a cushion of hot air (this ensures perfectly spherical centres). After 22mins and 30 secs the air is cooled, hardening the centres. The centres are left to cool for a further hour, creating the correct surface for perfect chocolate adhesion. Then the clever bit! A special 'tennis style' ball feeder is used to propel each centre at an approximate velocity of 5.7m/s through 5 banks of fine chocolate spray, each 10cm apart (approx). After the 5th spray is a cold air blast that ensures all the chocolate has solidified. A team of 'expert' catchers (each equipped with left and right handed baseball gloves) then 'pluck' the maltesers from mid air and drop them into the feeder for the packaging machine. PS- I was fired for catching too many with my mouth.

Impressive!
