For sale is this used / secondhand candy cut and twist wrapper. The seller has outlined its condition is: Very good. This model K kiss cut and twist wrap machine was purchased completely reconditioned from the USA so is in as new working condition.

Is very easy to use and candy rope that is fed through is at a lower temp. It has one (1x) sizing wheel and the cut size from memory is about 12mm x 18mm diameter and can be altered to a differing size. After the candy is cut and wrapped the finished product then falls on to the outfeed chute at the front of machine where a container is placed for collection. Contact parts look like chromed steel and brass (the knife that cuts the candy is toughened steel, could replace it with stainless steel one) and there are no wear points. Is on wheels so easy to move round. Requires single phase, 240V power supply and is ½ hp, 1725 rpm.

It was imported with the intention of manufacturing in front of customers for them to see, smell and buy product and to also wholesale out to other businesses as well. Is purely on the market due to a break up with my partner so this never eventuated and the machine was put into storage. I did 4 test batches though works perfectly It is a twist wrap type. It can twist wrap in wax paper or cellophane. In the USA the type of candy it twist wraps is called salt water taffy, whereas we would call it a chew like minties.

The same exact machine now reconditioned and landed in NZ would be about $35,000. The following is a Youtube link which is good as you see exactly the same machine going which is still widely used especially in the USA: www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8TIzXS8iqo
