Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a new Chiyokolate confectionery that can not only help infants and children acquire counting knowledge, but also help adults relieve their silence during group trips. It is.

Chiyokolate confectionery is especially popular among young and old men and women, especially infants and children, but in recent years, in line with the diversification of tastes, it has become popular in addition to the conventionally mainstream chiyoko and table chiyoko. various shapes (e.g. geometric figures, coins, umbrellas, mushrooms, etc.)
Products shaped like animals, human faces, hats, etc. are becoming popular. However, these are hobbies in themselves, and do nothing more than stimulate customers' curiosity and desire to purchase; they have no special utility other than that.

The present inventor has arrived at the present invention as a result of various considerations in order to actively utilize the versatility of Chiyokolate confectionery beyond mere hobby satisfaction.

The essence of this invention is that compared to Chiyokolate sweets,
It has an added function as stones or pieces for Go, Gomoku, or Othello games.

The Chiyocolate confectionery of the present invention may be made from plain Chiyocolate, but if it is necessary to produce it at a low cost, Chiyocolate can be poured over the core of biscuits, drops, etc. Furthermore, if it is desired to increase the surface hardness, it is advisable to apply a sugar coating to the tyokolate and, if necessary, to apply a waterproof layer such as silica on the sugar coating layer. The Chiyokolate dough to be used should preferably have a high melting point and is suitable for summer use.

When coloring the confectionery, if it is white, you can use the white chiyocollate dough as is. However, by applying sugar coating, it is possible to give the stone a pure white, shiny appearance similar to that of real white Go stone. On the other hand, black coloring can be achieved by using the black cloth as it is without any special coloring, but if necessary, the black food coloring may be used to color the black cloth. In addition, when applying sugar coating, the black color can be obtained by first coloring the syrup for sugar coating with black pigment, or by applying sugar coating using a sugar syrup that gives a translucent sugar coating, such as invert sugar, and applying the sugar coating to the base color. This is achieved by making it transparent. Note that the bill for the Othello game with a white front and a black back can be obtained by combining a half made of white fabric and a half made of black fabric.

The size of the Chiyocolate confectionery according to the present invention can be freely selected depending on the purpose. However, considering the fact that the main consumers of the proposed confectionery are infants and children, and that it is difficult to secure a sufficient surface area even if the confectionery can be played in a car, the confectionery is smaller than the standard Go stones or Othello game pieces. It is preferable that the diameter is 10.
It would be appropriate to choose within the range of ~20mmφ. The concept of "black" as used in this invention is conceptual, as can be seen from the above explanation.
It should be noted that it is not limited to physical black.

In principle, the confectionery consists of the same number of black and white stones or pieces, which are stored separately as needed in containers with competition squares displayed on the front or back.

The proposed Chiyokolate sweets can be played according to the exact same rules as traditional Go, Gomoku, or Othello games, or according to simpler rules such as Pincer Go, but the stones and pieces taken from the opponent can be eaten as spoils. If you set rules that allow you to do things, you can forget about time and have fun while on a long car ride or on a boat. In addition, if the target person is a toddler or a schoolchild in the lower grades, they may be asked to count the number of stones or pieces they have stolen.
Learn addition and subtraction by arranging stones etc. on a Go board,
It also has great educational value, such as helping students learn the concepts of coordinates and numbers.

Examples of the present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings.
Of course, this is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the idea of the invention.

FIGS. 1 and 3 show an example in which the main body of the confectionery of the present invention is formed into the shape of a white and black Go stone. Confectionery body 1 of this example,
1', for example, as shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, it is coated with uncolored and black colored sugar coating layers 2 and 2', respectively, to produce a sugar coated tyokolate confectionery. At the time of sale, a fixed number of each of these (for example, 180 black and white pieces) are stored separately in containers with a grid pattern on the surface of the lid.

Figure 4 shows an example of a piece resembling an Othello game piece. In this example, the disk-shaped piece is made by combining each half of each black and white plane piece (or white piece piece in the case of white). A shaped confectionery main body 3 is illustrated. The surface of the Chiyocolate confectionery body 3 of this example is coated with a thin Sierra coating 4 to prevent the surface from becoming contaminated or wet.

FIG. 5 shows an example of the packaging form of the confectionery main body shown in FIG. It can be used as a board.
