Micro analysis - Sweets & Confectionary
Started by poppysnoss, Jan 20 2010 10:06 PM
Hi All.
I am starting to think about my next assignment for my course and wondered if anyone could answer my query.
I want to do something on the micro analysis of confectionery, such as chocolate, boiled sweets, fudge, mints, jellies - that type of thing.
Where could I find information on parameters for micro analysis on this type of high sugar, low water activity (fairly low risk) product. I would do salmonella on the chocolate and osmo yeats & mould on all the sweets, but I can't find any guidance specifically related to sweets.
Anyone know where I can look?

Thankyou Charles. Your links are useful in backing up some of the data I have managed to source.
