The present invention is directed to an edible coating comprising milled rhodoxanthin having an average particle size D(v,0.5) in the range of from 400 to 650 nm, more preferably in the range of from 500 nm to 600 nm, measured by Laser Diffraction; Malvern Mastersizer 3000, MIE volume distribution. This milled rhodoxanthin is preferably added to the edible coating during its manufacture in the form of a dispersion. The edible coating is preferably used for coating confectionary such as chocolate lentils. The present invention is also directed to precursors of such edible coatings such as sugar syrup and sugar-free alternatives, both comprising such a milled rhodoxanthin.

Alcohol water-based, edible ink formulations comprising scalenohedral calcium carbonate particles are provided. The calcium carbonate particles can act as a white pigment to impart white color properties to the edible ink formulations which provide improved print quality and durability. The edible ink formulations can be printed onto a variety of surfaces, including the surfaces of food products such as confectionery products and snack food products.

The invention is rooted in the food industry and relates to a composition which provides a physiologically cooling effect for imparting freshness in the used preparations and comprises 2 to 10% cooling agent (A), 0 to 35% alcohol (B), 55 to 95% hydrophobic compound (C). Furthermore, the invention relates to the production and use of the composition according to the invention in oral preparations, in particular chewing gums and sweets.

A frozen coffee custard hybrid product is disclosed, along with several formulations and manufacturing methods. A single product serving has a caffeine content equivalent to a serving of coffee, and formulations are provided using various dairy, fiber, and sweetener sources that are combined to create a creamy and smooth texture similar to premium ice cream. As a frozen product, consumers can enjoy their daily serving of coffee by simply opening the freezer. Additionally, the formulations utilize natural sweeteners to mitigate the adverse health effects of consuming processed sugars and fiber to improve digestive and heart health. The preferred embodiment discloses a frozen coffee custard hybrid product comprising whole milk in an amount in the range of 25 to 75 wt. %, heavy cream in an amount in the range of 5 to 20 wt. %, skim powder in an amount in the range of 0.5 to 5 wt. %, an emulsifier in an amount in the range of 1 to 20 wt. %, sweetener in an amount in the range of 10 to 30 wt. %, and coffee in an amount in the range of 0.8 to 5 wt. %.
