An apparatus for continuously tempering chocolate masses and the like includes at least one tempering circuit (17) for a tempering medium and a plurality of chambers (9), at least one of the chambers (9) being connected to the tempering circuit (17). The chamber (9) includes an entrance (15) for the tempering medium being arranged at the periphery of the chamber (9) and an exit (16) for the tempering medium being arranged at the periphery of the chamber (9). At least one first separating wall (29, 29') is arranged inside the chamber (9), and at least one second separating wall (30, 30') is arranged inside the chamber (9). The first and second separating walls (29, 29'; 30, 30') are arranged in the form of at least two spirals defining a spiral-like canal (32) therebetween for the flow of the tempering medium from the entrance (15) toward the exit (16). The separating walls (29, 29'; 30, 30') each extend from an outside region of the chamber (9) toward an inside region of the chamber (9).
