Abstract:
Food products comprising a solid comestible component, wherein the solid comestible component has an oil content less than or equal to about 15 grams/ounce; and a fat-emulsifier component topically applied to the solid comestible component, wherein the fat-emulsifier component comprises an edible fat component; and an emulsifier component with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value less than or equal to about 9 or a lecithin component with an acetone insolubles (AI) percentage in the range of from about 20 to about 90 and a phosphatidylcholine (PC) percentage of from about 20 to about 90, wherein the emulsifier component or lecithin component is dispersed or solubilized in the edible fat component. Methods of producing such food products by dispersing or solubilizing the emulsifier component or lecithin component in the edible fat component to obtain the fat-emulsifier component; and topically applying the fat-emulsifier component to the solid comestible component.
