Abstract:
A stabilizer composition for food and beverage products comprises (a) from 15 to 85 weight percent of a methylcellulose, (b) from 10 to 80 weight percent of a carboxymethyl cellulose, and (c) from 5 to 20 weight percent of a carrageenan, all percentages being based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c). Food and beverage products which comprise this stabilizer composition have a good overrun and good organoleptic properties.
Abstract:
The invention provides carbohydrate compositions and products comprising the carbohydrate compositions, such as dry products or a low-viscosity reduced-sugar syrup, methods of making the carbohydrate compositions and products, and uses thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of producing an aerated dairy product. Specifically, the invention relates to a method of producing an aerated soured dairy product. The present invention relates also to an aerated dairy product. The present invention also relates to a method of producing a premix for an aerated dairy product. The present invention relates also to a premix for an aerated dairy product.
Abstract:
What is proposed is a food composition in powder form, obtainable by subjecting a preparation comprising or consisting of (i) carbohydrates, (ii) lipids, (iii) milk products and (iv) emulsifiers (a) first to a temperature treatment, (b) homogenizing the temperature-treated product, (c) concentrating the homogenized product, (d) crystallizing the concentrated product, (e) and freeing the crystallized product from residual water on a vacuum belt dryer.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a process comprising: (i) extracting ≧50% by weight of all carrageenan from a carrageenan-containing seaweed material to obtain a cellulose-containing seaweed residue; and (ii) purifying the cellulose-containing seaweed residue by at least one of hydrolysis or bleaching. The present invention is also directed to the cellulose obtained from the process, as well as products containing the cellulose-containing seaweed material.
Abstract:
Processes for the production of reduced calorie sweetening compositions having a natural sweetener such as a steviol glycosides (e.g., rebaudioside A) and sucrose as the major components is described, as well as the product of such processes having unique physical and sensory characteristics. In particular, a co-crystallization process of manufacturing a reduced calorie sweetening composition that comprises both sucrose and at least one natural sweetener as a co-crystallized product is disclosed, as well as the free-flowing powder product resultant therefrom.
Abstract:
Provided is the novel sweetener and sweetness enhancer iso-mogroside V, compositions comprising the sweetener/sweetness enhancer for use in consumables (food products and products place in the oral cavity including mouth wash and other dental hygiene products), and sweetened or sweetness enhanced food products comprising the novel sweetener/sweetness enhancer.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a frozen aqueous-based ice confectionary product including a center of water ice with a fruit content of 60 to 95 wt.-% and having a degree of overrun of 20 to 80% and an outer shell and top coating of water ice with a fruit content of 60 to 95 wt.-%.
Abstract:
A frozen sheeted icing comprising 2 to 10% by weight water; 10-30% by weight fat; 60-75% by weight sweetener solids; and 0.2 to 5.2% by weight of one or more gums. The composition can be prepared by mixing the ingredients to form an icing composition. The composition is then sheeted into desired shape, size and thickness. The sheeted icing is frozen and can be stored in the freezer until use. Also a method for icing a food product comprising the steps of providing a frozen sheet of icing; disposing the frozen sheet of icing on a surface of the food product; and exposing the disposed frozen sheet of icing to a temperature such that the frozen sheet of icing becomes sufficiently pliable and conforms or can be conformed to a surface of the food product. This results in forming an icing layer on the desired surfaces of the food product.
Abstract:
Sweeteners on the basis of a simultaneously transglucosylated sweet glycoside mixture of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni are prepared. The transglucosylation was developed in the presence of starch under the action of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase. The remaining maltodextrins are transformed to the fructose-terminated oligosaccharides by the addition of sucrose. The sweeteners are purified to not less than 98% content of sweet glycosides and derivatives. The preparations are almost non-caloric, non-cariogenic, non-bitter, non-lingering sweeteners, which may be advantageously applied in foods, beverages, cosmetics and milk products.
