An object of the present invention is to provide an oil and fat composition with unprecedentedly strong oxidative stability by using a simple method. The invention has been completed with the findings that an oil and fat composition shows an extremely strong oxidation stabilizing effect, the antioxidant oil and fat composition comprising an aqueous phase containing a water-soluble antioxidant and a carbohydrate and having a certain degree or more of water-soluble solids content, the aqueous phase being dispersed in an oil phase, wherein the antioxidant oil and fat composition contains a certain amount of water.

[Problem] To provide a method for producing an oil and fat composition in which it is possible to enhance the flavor of a flavor oil.

[Solution] This method for producing a powder oil and fat composition includes a step for heating an oil mixture including a vegetable ingredient and an edible oil or fat at a temperature that is at least 45 C. and less than 100 C., and a step for obtaining the powder oil composition from a raw-ingredient mixture including the flavor oil and a diluent.

The invention relates to edible spreadable emulsion with a fat content of between 10 and 90% (w/v) wherein the combination of phytosterol ester, hardstock and liquid oil in the fat fraction consists of 10-50% (w/w) of a phytosterol ester, comprising at least 65% (w/w) phytosterol oleate, 0-20% (w/w) hardstock, and liquid oil up to 100%.

Spreadable fat-containing food products, such as confectionery spreads, with improved structural stability and good organoleptic properties, and methods of their production are disclosed. The products include glyceride compositions which are characterized by having a healthy fatty acid profile, such as a reduced level of saturated fatty acids (SAFA).

A method of preparing an encapsulated phospholipid oil-in-water emulsion comprising: preparing an oil-in-water pre-emulsion comprising a phospholipid-containing oil and mixing the oil-in-water pre-emulsion with an encapsulant material.

A composition and method for supplementing food, nutrition, and diet systems with omega-6 to omega-3 balanced oils comprising a synergistic blend of at least two oils. The composition further comprises a synergistic blend of long chain omega-3 oil as a means to further increase the nutritional value. The composition provides an effective increase in therapeutic and pharmacological properties in nutrition and diet systems.

The present invention provides a method for preparing a filled bakery product, the method comprising: providing a filling composition comprising at least one powdered food ingredient and a fat blend comprising from 15 to 67 wt. % of a temper hard fat and from 85 to 33 wt. % of a liquid oil, tempering the filling composition to form a tempered filling composition, depositing the tempered filling composition on to at least one surface of a bakery product to form a filled bakery product, wherein the surface of the bakery product has a temperature of less than 36 C., and actively cooling the deposited filling composition, wherein in the step of depositing the tempered filling composition, the tempered filling composition is deposited at a deposition temperature of from to 33 C. and, in the step of actively cooling the deposited filling composition, the deposited filling composition is cooled to a temperature of at least 4 C. below the deposition temperature, wherein the temper hard fat has a solid fat content of at least 60 wt. % at 20 C., wherein the liquid oil has a solid fat content of less than 15 wt. % at 20 C., and wherein the fat blend has a saturated fatty acid residue content of from 16 to 42 wt. % and a polyunsaturated fatty acid residue content of less than 40 wt. %, based on the total weight of fatty acid residues of the fat blend.

The objective of the present invention is to provide compositions containing vegetable oils and an anti-oxidant system to prevent oxidation of the triglycerides in the vegetable oil in food products, in particular in products which are often stored for a long time. The antioxidant system should not give an undesired colour, and neither an undesired taste, to a food composition. Additionally, it should be a natural compound and/or common food ingredient, and fitting to the food composition with regard to taste and colour. This has been achieved by providing a food composition containing vegetable oil, wherein the composition comprises a source of organic acids, one or more organic acids other than acetic acid, amino acids, and one or more phenolic compounds. More in particular the source of organic acids comprises organic acids other than acetic acid to total organic acids in the source of organic acids at a weight ratio ranging from 0.5% to 60%; and the weight ratio of one or more amino acids to total organic acids in the source of organic acid ranges from 0.03% to 20%.

The objective of the present invention is to provide compositions containing vegetable oils and an anti-oxidant system to prevent oxidation of the triglycerides in the vegetable oil in food products, in particular in products which are often stored for a long time. The antioxidant system should not give an undesired colour, and neither an undesired taste, to a food composition. Additionally, it should be a natural compound and/or common food ingredient, and fitting to the food composition with regard to taste and colour. This has been achieved by providing a food composition containing vegetable oil and apple cider vinegar, wherein the weight ratio of citric acid and malic acid to total organic acids in the apple cider vinegar is more than 2%.

Novel compositions comprising omega-3 fatty acids and uses thereof are disclosed.
