Perfect Chocolate Through Precise Temperature Control
For the launch of a new chocolate stroopwafel, Daelmans Stroopwafels from Nieuwkuijk was looking for a reliable way to ensure that the chocolate stroopwafels hardened under controlled conditions. Fat bloom—the white discoloration that occurs in chocolate—must be prevented. Since the process was new, Daelmans deliberately chose to rent the equipment: to gain experience first, fine-tune the process, and ensure quality. Coolworld developed two custom-built tempering chambers that allowed the temperature to be precisely raised and maintained at a stable level for 48 hours.
How did Coolworld help Daelmans?
- Mastering a new production process for chocolate stroopwafels, in which temperature is crucial to prevent fat bloom.
- The stroopwafel is heated in a controlled manner from +18 °C to +27 °C and then kept at exactly that temperature for 48 hours. Finally, the stroopwafels are cooled back down to +18 °C.
- Two custom-built tempering chambers made it possible to deliver consistent quality and provide full transparency into the process.
Solution for Stable Temperature Control
When launching a new chocolate stroopwafel, precise temperature control is essential. Daelmans needed a solution that could not only be deployed quickly but also provide maximum control over the entire tempering process. Coolworld translated the customer's production requirements into an intelligent technical control system, fully tailored to the chocolate stroopwafel and Daelmans' production process.

Required Temperature Range
+18°C to +27°C
The stroopwafels enter the chamber at +18°C, are gradually heated under controlled conditions, and then maintained at a stable +27°C for 48 hours to prevent fat bloom on the chocolate.
-
Custom-Configured Tempering Chambers
Coolworld supplied two temporary, fully equipped tempering chambers featuring intelligent controls, monitoring and data logging, including clear graphical reports for quality assurance.
-
Compliant with Hygiene and Safety Standards
The tempering chambers offer a temperature range from -70°C to +50°C. They are configured entirely to your specifications and meet the strictest HACCP requirements.
-
24/7 service
Daelmans can rely on Coolworld’s dedicated service team to resolve any issues quickly and efficiently, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
-
Space, Process and Product
The two tempering chambers are configured to accommodate two batches of six pallets per cycle. This enables a controlled and repeatable process that would be difficult to achieve in a standard storage space.
“We really enjoyed working with Coolworld. They took the time to understand our production process and responded quickly, even under tight deadlines. The technical solution is perfectly tailored to our chocolate stroopwafels and gives us complete control over product quality.”
Continuous Process
The introduction of a new product requires certainty, flexibility, and complete process control.
For Daelmans, this meant a smart solution for perfectly tempering their chocolate stroopwafels without compromising on quality.
By opting for a rental solution, they were able to get started quickly while simultaneously optimizing their process.
With custom-built tempering cells and precise temperature control, the risk of fat bloom was effectively prevented.
In addition, real-time monitoring provided continuous insight and added assurance at every stage of production.
The result: a stable, reproducible process and consistent product quality.
