The present disclosure relates to a foodstuff composition, in particular a spreadable food composition, more in particular an olive oil-based functional spread fat composed by olive oil fortified with a functional ingredientthe olive pomace active ingredient. This functional ingredient is a mixture of bioactive compounds, in particular hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol, sterols, tocopherols, triterpenes, coenzyme Q10, K, Mg and Ca, among others, obtained from olive pomace by mechanical pressing.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a composition used for producing a whipped cream which can have improved water separation while maintaining moderate overrun, and which further can stably retain a state of cream. The objective is achieved by an oil-in-water type composition for whipped cream, comprising hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, an oil, a non-fat milk solid and water, wherein a ratio of interfacial elastic modulus to interfacial viscous modulus of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is equal to or higher than 2.0 when measured with a tensiometer at 25 C. using a 0.2% by mass aqueous solution; and the like.

This disclosure relates to a method for improving a sensory characteristic of a carotenoid composition including providing a carotenoid composition into a reaction vessel and holding the carotenoid composition at a holding temperature between 50 C. to 180 C. while purging atmosphere from the reaction vessel for a suitable time to remove volatile odor-causing impurities from the carotenoid composition. This disclosure also relates to carotenoid food additive formulations prepared according to the above method.

A lipid composition includes, by weight of the lipid composition: from 30 wt % to 70 wt % a first lipid component; from 10 wt % to 40 wt % a sweetening substance; from 5 wt % to 20 wt % water; from 0.1 wt % to 1.2 wt % an emulsifier; and 1.5 wt % to 11 wt % a second lipid component. The emulsifier has a SFA content of less than 90 wt %. The second lipid component has a SFA content of at least 90 wt %, and fully saturated fatty acids with a carbon chain of more than 16 carbons comprise C22:0 and account for at least 33.3 wt % of the SFA content of the second lipid component by weight. The lipid composition has a SFA content of at least 40 wt %, and fully saturated fatty acids with a carbon chain of more than 16 carbons account for at least 12.5 wt % of the SFA content of the lipid composition by weight.

The technology disclosed in this specification pertains to a powdered chickpea-protein based emulsifier comprising a soluble chickpea protein and a gelatinized but otherwise unmodified amylopectin. The soluble chickpea protein is not hydrolyzed, and the emulsifier is obtainable by drying the amylopectin and the chickpea protein together. The emulsifier is useful in high oil load and low oil load emulsions and provides emulsions stability against oil separation for at least several months.
