Abstract: Use of particles of insoluble water-absorbing food ingredient, such as dietary fibre, as carrier for a humectant, such as water of glycerol, for the introduction of the humectant into a chocolate product. Furthermore, a tropicalizing agent comprising discrete particles of insoluble food ingredient material, such as citrus fibre particles, loaded with water or humectant. That tropicalizing agent is dispersed in liquid fat, such as cocoa butter. The tropicalizing agent is used to make chocolate products heat resistant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to amorphous porous particles comprising sugar, a bulking agent and surfactant, having a closed porosity of between 20 to 60%. Further aspects of the invention relate to a food product comprising the amorphous porous particles; a process of making the amorphous porous particles and a fat based confectionery product containing them; and the use of the amorphous porous particles as bulk sugar replacers in food products such as fat based confectionery products for example, chocolate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to amorphous porous particles comprising sugar, a bulking 940 agent and surfactant, having a closed porosity of between 20 to 60% a sphericity of at least between 0.8 and 1. In a further aspect the present invention relates to a process of making said amorphous porous particles and their use as bulk sugar replacers in food products such as fat based confectionery products for example, chocolate.
