The invention comprises a method for packaging a dispensable substance, such as a food product, whipped cream, a hydrocarbon, or an air freshener, the method comprising the steps of: placing a first product component into a container, the container comprising a valve dispensing port; adding a second product component into the container, the second product component comprising at least one of: (1) a solid form of the second product component and (2) a liquid form of the second product component; sealing the container; and warming, after the step of sealing, the second product component in the container at least ten degrees Celsius, where the step of warming results in a phase change of all of the second product component into a gas phase, at least a portion of the gas phase of the second product component dissolving into the first product component to form the dispensable substance.

A device for emulsifying liquid or solid products, in particular food products such as milk or ice cream, including a pump having at least one suction duct adapted for sucking a product to be emulsified and an emulsifying gas, and a delivery duct adapted for dispensing an emulsion obtained starting from the product to be emulsified and from the emulsifying gas, where the pump has a double worm screw arranged between the suction duct and the delivery duct, the double worm screw being adapted for emulsifying the product and the gas to obtain the emulsion and to push the product, the gas and/or the emulsion with a flow substantially parallel to the axis of the screws of the double worm screw from the suction duct to the delivery duct. Moreover, the device comprises cooling means associated with the pump in an area comprised between the suction duct and the delivery duct and adapted for cooling the product, the gas and/or the emulsion present in the area of the pump comprised between the suction duct and the delivery duct.

The present invention is providing a whipping cream composition comprising combination of fats, protein, sweetener, stabilizer, emulsifier and water. The whipping cream composition is a low-fat, non-dairy whipping cream composition that is stable at high temperature. The whipping cream composition having increased heat stability such as rosette stability, bench stability, high overrun, and no cracking on finished cakes at high temperature.

The invention comprises an apparatus and/or a method of use thereof for dispensing whipped cream, comprising: a profi including a pressure containment housing, a first receiving port integrated into the pressure containment housing, a dispensing port integrated into the pressure containment housing, and at least a first pressure cartridge containing at least a liquid form of nitrous oxide, where the pressure cartridge includes a pressure gas delivery port and where a connection between the receiving port and the pressure gas delivery port form: (1) a section of a pressure containment unit encompassing contents of the pressure containment housing and the pressure cartridge and (2) an open path between the pressure containment housing and the pressure cartridge.

The invention relates to a foamable or whippable food composition, in particular a cream, comprising at least 12 wt. % fat, protein, water, a citric acid ester of a mono- or diglyceride of one or more fatty acids comprising an unsaturated acyl chain and a lactic acid ester of a mono- or diglyceride of one or more fatty acids, the total content of substances other than water being at least 15 wt. % of the total weight of the composition.

Method and device for producing milk froth, in particular for preparing beverages containing milk froth using coffee machines. The beverage, preferably cold milk, is at least partially introduced into a container before the preparation. The introduced beverage, in the container positioned on a placement surface of a station, is guided through at least one line, which leads away from the station, to a device for preparing milk froth or hot milk. The beverage is subsequently led back into the container, and this circulation is repeated until the beverage has a certain temperature and/or consistency. Using this method, a container can be used by operating personnel in a conventional way for preparation of the beverage, because the beverage can thus be prepared manually and specifically in accordance with the desires of the guest, while the milk froth or the like can be produced and served with constant and high quality.

The invention comprises an apparatus and/or a method of use thereof for dispensing whipped cream, comprising: a profi including a pressure containment housing, a first receiving port integrated into the pressure containment housing, a dispensing port integrated into the pressure containment housing, and at least a first pressure cartridge containing at least a liquid form of nitrous oxide, where the pressure cartridge includes a pressure gas delivery port and where a connection between the receiving port and the pressure gas delivery port form: (1) a section of a pressure containment unit encompassing contents of the pressure containment housing and the pressure cartridge and (2) an open path between the pressure containment housing and the pressure cartridge.

A whipped cream machine includes a source of whipping cream, a source of gas, a mixing portion connected to the source of whipping cream and the source of gas to form a whipping cream and gas mixture at an elevated pressure that is a whipped cream, an expansion device to relieve the pressure and expand the gas in the whipped cream to form expanded whipped cream that has been expanded to the desired overrun, and a dispenser to dispense the expanded whipped cream.

The invention comprises an apparatus and/or a method of use thereof for dispensing whipped cream, comprising: a profi including a pressure containment housing, a first receiving port integrated into the pressure containment housing, a dispensing port integrated into the pressure containment housing, and at least a first pressure cartridge containing at least a liquid form of nitrous oxide, where the pressure cartridge includes a pressure gas delivery port and where a connection between the receiving port and the pressure gas delivery port form: (1) a section of a pressure containment unit encompassing contents of the pressure containment housing and the pressure cartridge and (2) an open path between the pressure containment housing and the pressure cartridge.

A beverage preparation device, in particular for preparing coffee, tea or milk beverages, having a milk system for dispensing milk and/or milk froth, and having a control unit for controlling the beverage preparation device to dispense beverages portion by portion. The milk system here has a connectable conveying line to a milk container, and a milk pump which is attached to the conveying line. A first mechanical flow meter is arranged in the conveying line, this flow meter meters the volume of milk conveyed by the milk pump and is connected in terms of signaling to the control unit.
