    摘要: The invention relates to a particulate acidulant composition comprising 20-70 wt.% malic acid, 3-40 wt.% lactic acid and 0-40 wt.% of food acid selected from citric acid, fumaric acid, adipic acid, tartaric acid and acetic acid and combinations thereof, wherein the acidulant composition comprises:
    • 40-90 wt.% of M-particles comprising co-crystal of malic acid and partially neutralized polycarboxylic acid selected from malic acid, citric acid, fumaric acid, adipic acid, tartaric acid, and combinations thereof, said M-particles containing at least 30 wt.% malic acid and at least 30 wt.% of the partially neutralized polycarboxylic acid;
    • 5-60 wt.% of L-particles comprising co-crystal of lactic acid and at least partially neutralized lactic acid, said L-particles containing at least 30 wt.% lactic acid and at least 30 wt.% of the at least partially neutralized lactic acid; and
    wherein the combination of M-particles and L-particles constitutes at least 50 wt.% of the acidulant composition.
    The invention also relates to a particulate coating composition, to a method of preparing a food ingredient or a food product and to a confectionery product.
