Abstract:
The invention provides the use of a 4-hydroxydihydrochalcone of the formula (I) wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 each, independently, represent H, OH or O-alkyl, with the proviso that at least one of the groups R 1 , R 2 or R 3 represents OH, - a salt of such a 4-hydroxydihydrochalcone of the formula (I), - a mixture containing or consisting of two or more different 4-hydroxydihydrochalcones of the formula (I), wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are each defined in the way given above, - a mixture containing or consisting of salts of two or more different 4-hydroxydihydrochalcones of the formula (I), wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are each defined in the way given above or - a mixture containing or consisting of a 4-hydroxydihydrochalcone of the formula (I) or two or more different 4-hydroxydihydrochalcones of the formula (I), wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are each defined in the way given above, and a salt of a 4-hydroxydihydrochalcone of the formula (I) or two or more salts of different 4-hydroxydihydrochalcones of the formula (I), wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are each defined in the way given above, to enhance the sweet taste of a sweet-tasting substance or the impression of a sweet smell of a flavouring that gives an impression of a sweet smell.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an oleaginous composition containing an especially antioxidative, flowable active ingredient, as an additive for an oil that is principally used for food preparations, the viscosity of the composition being between the viscosity of the active ingredient and the viscosity of the oil.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a water-free low viscous liquid bread improver, which comprises a liquid emulsifier based on esters of hydroxy polycarboxylic acid derivates, a glyceride based stabilizer and additive(s) and less than about 20 % oil, to the use thereof and to a process for producing a liquid bread improver. The liquid bread improver according to the present invention may be used in e.g. variety of products in bakery industry or in extruded snacks.
Abstract:
Fat-like protein compositions for use in foods and cosmetics comprising a protein of gelatin and a water-soluble albumin, a carbohydrate, and a phospholipid wherein said gelatin, albumin, carbohydrate, and phospholipids are in the form of a water-insoluble complex coacervate, and processes for making the same. Preferred are compositions wherein some or all of the ingredients are optionally crosslinked.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method for decreasing the lag time in a fermentation of a culture medium to prepare a target substance, wherein the target substance is not yogurt and wherein the fermentation results in formation of acid or ethanol, which method comprises the steps of providing, to a suitable culture medium, a fermentation starter culture comprising a microorganism which liberates acid or ethanol, adding a potato protein protease inhibitor to the culture medium, culturing the microorganism, and obtaining the target substance. It has been found that addition of potato protein protease inhibitor to a fermentation feed significantly reduces the lag time of the fermentation. The invention further pertains to a fermented food product which is not yogurt, comprising potato protein protease inhibitor.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods for producing esterified propoxylated glycerols and eutectic mixtures containing one or more esterified propoxylated glycerols and one or more digestible fats. Food products containing the eutectic mixtures are also disclosed.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an enriched food product, such as a calcium- enriched chewable food product in which at least one piece of the food product provides the recommended daily DRI of elemental calcium. The enriched food product has a mouth feel, texture and taste substantially similar to a non-enriched food product. The food product may also provide Vitamin D3 in a range of 100-2400 IU and optionally may be enrobed with a flavored coating. The present invention is also directed to a method for producing the enriched food product.
Abstract:
A low calorie, diabetic safe, water soluble, tooth friendly, synergistic sweetening composition containing intense sweeteners; bulk sweeteners; a small amount of simple sugar sweeteners to help with the browning of the baked food products; anti-flatulent agents used to help to break up the gas created as the polysaccharides metabolized by the intestinal microflora; and flavoring agents. The present invention is very stable under processing conditions including heat, pH, and moisture. The composition is a one-to-one substitution for granulated sugars, brown sugars, and powdered sugars. The sweetening composition can be used in all types of "ingestible food". These ingestible foods retain their sweetness, appearance, texture and good taste when compared to food preparations made with regular granulated, brown and powdered sugar.
