An oil-free, non-dairy, shelf-stable liquid whitening composition having a whitening agent and a stabilizing system is disclosed. The stabilizing system includes a hydrocolloid component, preferably of a blend of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and carrageenans, in an amount sufficient to suspend the whitening agent both in the liquid whitening composition and in an aqueous media to which the liquid whitening composition is added; and a buffer to ensure sensory quality. The stabilizing system maintains the liquid whitening composition in a homogeneous state in the composition for at least about 9 months at ambient temperatures, and further maintains the whitening composition in suspension when added to the aqueous media.

The invention provides co-agglomerates of sucralose and a polyol, wherein the co-agglomerate comprises grains of polyol onto which sucralose has been dried, as well as methods for making such co-agglomerates. In general, the methods comprise contacting a dry powder of polyol with a liquid solution of sucralose in a food acceptable solvent under conditions which moisten, but not dissolve the polyol powder, to form a moist mixture, and drying the moist mixture to form a co-agglomerate comprising grains of agglomerated polyol onto which sucralose has been dried. Also provided are artificial sweetener carriers comprising bentonite which comprise sucralose. The invention features pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food compositions, especially chewing gum, comprising a co-agglomerate of the invention, comprising a bentonite carrier, or comprising both. The invention further features methods of enhancing the sweetness perception during the onset phase of chewing, a method of enhancing the sweetness build-up in sweetness perception and a method of enhancing the maximum sweetness perception of food, pharmaceutical or cosmetic compositions.
摘要:
Ultra-fine microcrystalline cellulose compositions are disclosed which comprise co-attrited microcrystalline cellulose and a hydrocolloid. The compositions have a mean particle size of less than 10 microns. The compositions are prepared by subjecting a high solids mixture of microcrystalline cellulose and a hydrocolloid to high shear forces in the presence of an anti slip agent preferably an aqueous solution of an inorganic salt. The compositions are especially useful in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic and industrial applications.
摘要:
A method of providing a comestible plant material taken orally by coating a micronized plant material with a first layer of polysaccharides or proteins, then a second layer of polysaccharides or proteins is disclosed. A bi-encapsulated plant material produced by this process is also disclosed.
摘要:
A low-calorie, no laxation bulking system and a method for preparation of same is disclosed. Erithritol and at least one gum are combined to form a dry-blended mixture. The dry-blended mixture is added to water, forming a first mix, and the first mix is heated to a first temperature. A first liquid mixture comprising modified polydextrose is formed. The first liquid mixture is added to the first mix to form a second mix, and the second mix is heated to a second temperature. A second liquid mixture comprising at least one acid is added to the second mix, and the resultant solution is maintained in a predetermined temperature range. The resultant solution is then preferably stirred constantly and held in a kettle or mixing tank for panning or molding as desired.
摘要:
Solutions and methods of preparing aqueous solutions containing beta-glucans and gums are described. The solutions demonstrate enhanced rheological properties including improved shear tolerance that provide improved viscosity characteristics enabling the use of the solutions in a number of applications including the beverage industry.
摘要:
The invention relates to a foodstuff having creamy to pasty characteristics comprising one or more biopolymers and water and having a homogeneous microstructure wherein the biopolymers are present in a very fine microscopic distribution and without discernible coarse clusters. This foodstuff is produced by mixing the constituents of the foodstuff to form a starting mixture of liquid to pasty consistency; cooling the starting mixture to a product temperature of below 0° C. with simultaneous continuous mixing and without aeration to produce a freeze-texturized homogenous mixture of the constituents of the foodstuff; and allowing the product temperature to rise to a distribution and consumption temperature of 4° C. and above.
