The present invention concerns a solid, palatable composition and its preparation process which, relative to the total weight of the composition, comprises: 5 to 30%, preferably 8 to 20% by weight of at least one fat chosen from among a liquid oil, a fat, wax or mixture thereof, the liquid oil not to represent more than 8% by weight of the composition; 0.001 to 85% by weight of at least one active substance; and 20 to 95%, preferably 40 to 70% by weight of at least one palatable material,
for use thereof as medicinal product, nutraceutical or food supplement, for oral administration to mammals, except man, in particular for domestic animals such as dogs, cats or horses. The said solid composition is obtained by mixing the components, vaporising the fats, calibrating the dry, fluid granular material and compressing the granular material in a stock cube press.

Disclosed is a method for the manufacture of a spray-dried powder consisting essentially of 3-fucosyllactose, the spray-dried powder, its use for the manufacture of nutritional compositions, and nutritional compositions containing the spray-dried powder.

The disclosure relates to a three-dimensional printer coupled with microwave and a printing method applied for food design. A microwave heating probe embedded in the inner wall of a barrel releases microwaves at the front end, and in combination with the setting of a vertical distance between the front end of the microwave heating probe and an extrusion nozzle, the effect of instant curing of an extruded material is realized. A cooling device is disposed so as to ensure that a material to be printed in the barrel is not cured by microwave heating before the material to be printed enters the extrusion nozzle.

A solid paste composition for cooking that contains beans is provided. The solid paste composition contains 3% by mass or higher, on a dry mass basis, of an insoluble dietary fiber, 10% by mass or higher, on a dry mass basis, of a starch, 4% by mass or higher, on a dry mass basis, of a protein, and after isothermally treating the solid paste composition in 40 times as much water at 90° C. for 5 minutes, the Haze value of the water being 25% or lower.

A food processor is disclosed and includes a main body, a grinding container mounted in a portion of the main body and forming a space therein, a grinder rotatably disposed in the grinding container, a grinding motor for rotating the grinder, a drying container mounted under the grinding container inside the main body and forming a space therein, a heating device for supplying heated air to the drying container, and a discharge container detachably mounted under the drying container inside the main body and forming a space therein. The grinding container has a surface facing the drying container that is openable toward the drying container, and the drying container includes one side surface formed so as to be openable toward the discharge container.

The present invention relates to a method for the production of an edible object, comprising providing an edible powder composition and at least one edible liquid, wherein the edible powder composition comprises a water soluble protein, a hydrocolloid and a plasticizer, and subjecting said composition to powder bed printing by depositing the edible liquid by spraying it onto the powder and thereby obtaining the edible object. Also food products obtainable with the method of the invention, particularly, a pasta, a cake object and a protein bar are disclosed.
