摘要:
An edible product having a thin inorganic coating on at least a portion of its surface. The coating preferably forms a moisture/oxygen barrier to result in a coated edible product having an improved shelf-life. The edible products include food and pharmaceuticals. The inorganic materials used for the coating include SiO2, SiO, MgO, CaO, TiO2, ZnO and MnO. Processes and apparatuses for depositing a thin film of inorganic material onto an edible substrate are also disclosed. The preferred processes include sputtering and vapor deposition. The preferred apparatus provides for the continuous production of coated edible products.
摘要:
A low or no fat confection is prepared containing 80% soluble solids wherein at least 70% of the solids are carbohydrates. The mixture containing carbohydrate, a cationic reactive and thermalsensitive hydrocolloid and an edible cation containing material is cooked or its solids concentration adjusted to 80% solids while hot. The molten mixture is then cooled to form a solid confection having a water activity being 0.30 to 0.65 Aw and a pH from 3.0 to 8.5.
摘要:
hard candy confection is disclosed which offers an extended effervescent reaction and improved shelf stability, by the incorporation of separate reactive components achieving an in situ neutralization and effervescent reaction within the candy on its consumption. The respective ingestible reactive acid component and ingestible reactive base component are incorporated into separate portions of the candy base, and the resulting portions are thereafter positioned adjacent each other, and may be further incorporated one into the other. The ingestible reactive acid component may comprise citric acid and the ingestible reactive base component may comprise sodium bicarbonate. The separation of these reactive components in the resulting hard candy promotes a controlled release of the effervescent sensation with a corresponding improvement in shelf stability.
