Abstract:
The present invention relates to a filled chewy sugarfree confectionary product comprising erythritol, maltitol, a fat and a hydrocolloid, wherein the erythritol content is in the range of 30 80 wt% of the total dry weight of the product, as well as to a process for manufacturing the confectionary product. The process according to the invention comprises (a) cooking a mixture comprising erythritol, maltitol, hydrocolloid and a fat, (b) optionally dehydrating the mixture; (c) preferably dry blending further erythritol with the cooked and optionally dehydrated mixture; (d) cooling the cooked and optionally dehydrated mixture, prior to, during or after step (c); (e) pulling the cooled mixture to obtain a dough; (f) filling the dough with a filling; (g) shaping the filled dough into single units.
Abstract:
La présente invention a pour objet une confiserie gélifiée à teneur réduite en sucres, plus particulièrement un bonbon tendre ou une gomme dure allégé en sucres. L'invention concerne également l'utilisation de maltooligosaccharides pour remplacer une partie des sucres contenus dans une confiserie gélifiée, plus particulièrement une gomme tendre.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is drawn to naturally sweet fibrous blends as well as fibrous saccharide blends. The naturally sweet fibrous blend can include from 15 wt% to 85 wt% natural isomalto-oligosaccharide, from 10 wt% to 75 wt% by weight of tagatose, and from 0.05 wt% to 20 wt% of a natural sweetener extract, for example. In another examples, the fibrous saccharide blend can include a polysaccharide having an average degree of polymerization by weight ranging from greater than 9 to 14, and an oligosaccharide having an average degree of polymerization by weight ranging from 3 to 9. The fibrous saccharide blend can have a polysaccharide to oligosaccharide weight ratio of 50:50 to 90:10. These blends can be used to sweeten various food products.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to compositions comprising gymnemic acid, together with a form of zinc to block the unpleasant bitter taste of gymnemic acid as well as to extend the sweet taste blocking properties of gymnemic acid, resulting in palatable compositions for delivery to the oral cavity to block sweet taste receptors located therein. The present disclosure also relates to methods of reducing sugar consumption and reducing calorie intake via administration of such compositions to a subject.

Abstract:
La présente invention concerne une nouvelle confiserie gélifiée, plus particulièrement un bonbon tendre ou une pâte à mâcher comprenant un agent gélatinisant procurant aux dits bondons leur masticabilité. Plus particulièrement, la présente invention concerne une nouvelle confiserie gélifiée contenant peu ou pas de gélatine. La présente invention concerne également un procédé de préparation d'une telle confiserie.
Abstract:
The invention relates to mixtures which contain (a) at least one phenylalkenal of formula (I) wherein R1 and R2 independently represent hydrogen, a methyl or phenyl group, R3 represents hydrogen, a phenyl group, alkenyl group or a linear or branched alkyl group with 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and the broken double lines independently represent a single bond or a double bond, and (b) at least one physiological cooling agent.
Abstract:
A method of preparing an orally ingestible hard boiled product, comprising: i) heating a sugar material to a first temperature sufficient to liquefy the sugar material; ii) cooling the liquefied sugar material to provide a cooled sugar material having a solid or semi-solid form; iii) heating the cooled sugar material to a second temperature, which is lower than the first temperature; iv) combining the sugar material with one or more temperature sensitive ingredients before, during, or after said heating step iii), but after said cooling step ii), such that an intimate mixture of the second liquefied sugar material and the one or more temperature sensitive ingredients is provided; and v) cooling the intimate mixture to form an orally ingestible product. Orally ingestible hard boiled products prepared according to this method are also provided.
