To provide a method for improving the body taste-imparting effect of a γ-glutamyl peptide. By using an edible oil/fat composition that is produced by dispersing an aqueous solution of a γ-glutamyl peptide in an oil/fat, the body taste-imparting effect of the γ-glutamyl peptide is improved.

A process is disclosed for modifying citrus fiber. Citrus fiber is obtained having a c* close packing concentration value of less than 3.8 w %, anhydrous basis. The citrus fiber can have a viscosity of at least 1000 mPa.Math.s, wherein said citrus fiber is dispersed in standardized water at a mixing speed of from 800 rpm to 1000 rpm, to a 3 w/w % citrus fiber/standardized water solution, and wherein said viscosity is measured at a shear rate of 5 s-1 at 20 C. Citrus fiber can be obtained having a CIELAB L* value of at least 90. The citrus fiber can be used in food products, feed products, beverages, personal care products, pharmaceutical products or detergent products.

Methods and compositions for the production of non-meat consumable products are described herein. A meat substitute is described which is constructed from a muscle analog, a fat analog, and a connective tissue analog.

The invention provides a water-in-oil emulsion for the preparation of a frozen confection, the emulsion comprising a weight ratio of water phase to oil phase of from 94:6 to 70:30 wherein: the oil phase comprises at least an edible oil and an emulsifier, the emulsifier having an average HLB of from 0.1 to 5; the water phase comprises at least water and one or more freezing point depressors; the emulsion comprises at least (W×A) wt % emulsifier by weight of the emulsion where: W is the proportion of the water phase in the emulsion expressed as the weight percentage of the total emulsion; and A is 0.0001; the emulsion comprises at most (O×0.2) wt % emulsifier by weight of the emulsion where: O is the proportion of the oil phase in the emulsion expressed as the weight percentage of the total emulsion; the emulsion comprises from 4 to 40 wt % of one or more freezing point depressors by weight of the emulsion; and the temperature at which the edible oil contains 25 wt % solid fat by weight of the edible oil is less than temperature at which the water phase contains 25 wt % ice by weight of the water phase.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing a freeze-dried composition selected from infant formula, follow-on formula or growing up milk, said composition comprises large lipid globules, preferably coated with polar lipids.

The present disclosure is directed to cannabinoids infused coffee beans, roasted nuts, and roasted seeds consumables and methods of producing the cannabinoid infused consumables. The consumables are infused in an overall two-step process, in which cannabinoids from a Cannabis species are first infused into coconut oil, which in turn is used to infuse a food or beverage of choice with cannabinoids to generate the cannabinoids infused consumables.

This document relates to food products containing highly conjugated heterocyclic rings complexed to an iron ion and one or more flavor precursors, and using such food products to modulate the flavor and/or aroma profile of other foods. The food products described herein can be prepared in various ways and can be formulated to be free of animal products.

Coconut oil, coconut oil blends that are high in MCTs such as LouAna® liquid coconut oil, pure MCT oils, Omega-3 oils, cannabidiol (CBD), hemp extract, tree nut oil, macadamia oil, almond oil, cashew oil, avocado oil, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), fish oil, and/or conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) may be emulsified to create an emulsified oil or blend that may take the form of a creamy shot or a cream substitute. These oils and/or blends may be emulsified using an emulsifier that may be selected from the following: sunflower lecithin, sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL), acacia gum, beta-cyclodextrin, and combinations of same. By emulsifying these oils/oil blends, a good tasting creamy shot or a cream substitute can be formed.
