摘要:
The present invention is a new mesomorphic polycrystallite product and a process for making the same. In the present invention amorphous sugar is transformed to a mesomorphic product having polycrystallites therein by a completely anhydrous process rather than by hydrating and then dehydrating the sugar. The product of the present invention is unique in shape and size, and possesses a high degree of uniformity. The properties of the polycrystallite make it possible to replace some or all of the fat in comestibles such as frostings and fillings and to provide fondants of extraordinarily fine grain.

摘要:
The present invention is a new method of making a confectionery mass, such as a nougat, by hydrating sufficiently to form the mass without the need for cooking to drive off moisture. The present invention also includes a product prepared by positively hydrating a mixture of confectionery ingredients including a hydrobinding component and shearform product.

摘要:
A process for producing a sorbitol coated comestible is disclosed. The process comprises applying to a substantially anhydrous edible core at least two coating solutions comprising sorbitol to coat the edible core,wherein the first coating solution comprises:(a) about 77 to about 81 wt % sorbitol solution comprising about 65 to about 75 wt % sorbitol;(b) about 9.5 to about 12.5 wt % crystalline sorbitol powder;(c) about 0.25 to about 1.5 wt % of at least one film-forming agent; and(d) about 0.1 to about 5.0 wt % of at least one crystallization retardant; andwherein the second coating solution comprises:(a) about 82 to about 92 wt % sorbitol solution comprising about 65 to about 75 wt % sorbitol;(b) about 1.0 to about 2.5 wt % crystalline sorbitol powder;(c) about 0.05 to about 2.0 wt % of at least one film-forming agent; and(d) about 0.1 to about 0.3 wt % of at least one crystallization retardant; andafter application of each coating solution, the solution is dried to prepare a final product which is a smooth, hard, and crunchy comestible.
摘要:
A method of producing a chewy confectionery involves high or low shear mixing with no cooking to produce a mass which is well hydrated and yet has no phase separation of moisture. A bioaffecting agent included in the confectionery is effectively taste-masked, even one that is typically organoleptically unpalatable.
摘要:
A beverage composition has a source of fiber, as well as one or more additional nutrients. The composition is in the form of a shearform matrix as a result of flash-flow processing. The beverage composition is highly storage stable.

The present invention is a method of preparing a system for delivering a bio-affecting agent and the composition prepared thereby. The invention includes forming a molecular dispersion of the bio-affecting agent in an increased energy state in a water-soluble polymer which is compatible with the bio-affecting agent. As a consequence of transforming the bio-affecting agent to an increased-energy condition and freezing it in such condition in a water-soluble polymer, the bio-affecting agent is made available (“bio-available”) to a bio-system upon dissolution of the polymer. This method and composition has been found extremely effective for delivery of otherwise substantially non-soluble drugs and other bio-affecting ingredients.
摘要:
The present invention is a method of entrapping an additive within carbohydrate bodies. The additive is drawn into the internal structure as a fluid during transformation of the bodies from a substantially amorphous state to a crystalline state. The present invention is also a delivery system including a carbohydrate body having an internal free volume space defined by an at least partially crystalline structure at equilibrium conditions, and an additive loaded within the carbohydrate body.
摘要:
The invention relates to the film products and methods of their preparation that demonstrate a non-self-aggregating uniform heterogeneity. Desirably the films disintegrate in water and may be formed by a controlled drying process, or other process that maintains the required uniformity of the film.
