This invention relates to compositions comprising cellulose particles and methods for making and using same. This invention also relates to compositions comprising a fluid and particles comprising cellulose. Thus, disclosed herein are methods of manufacture, isolation, purification, and handling of cellulose particles. Also disclosed are uses for cellulose particles as additives in leavened or leavenable food products, or in an emulsion or emulsifiable product, or as a suspension aid, or in a thickened composition, or in a meat or meat analog product, or in a personal care formulation, or in a beauty formulation, or in a cosmetic formulation, or in a skin care formulation. Also disclosed are uses for cellulose particles in subterranean treatment compositions. Also disclosed are uses for cellulose particles in metal working compositions, cutting compositions, and stamping compositions. Also disclosed herein are resuspendable particles comprising cellulose. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

The present invention provides a method for producing a low trans-fatty acid butter-like food characterized by including: respectively heating an animal milk and a vegetable processed fat having a melting point of from 30° C. to 35° C., to a temperature equal to or higher than the melting point of the vegetable processed fat; adding from 40% by mass to 60% by mass of the heated vegetable processed fat to from 40% by mass to 60% by mass of the heated animal milk and performing emulsification; cooling an animal milk emulsion obtained by the emulsification; subjecting a creamy substance obtained by the cooling to churning or cavitation, and separating the creamy substance into an aqueous phase and an oil phase; and kneading and homogenizing an oil phase solid obtained by removing the aqueous phase.

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.

A process for preparing a low fat water-in-oil emulsion which emulsion comprises water, oil and a hardstock fat. The process involves combining an aqueous phase and a fat phase, wherein the fat phase comprises the hardstock fat and which fat phase is at a temperature such that the fat phase is liquid, followed by subjecting the obtained mixture to high shear mixing effected a high shear mixing device, and wherein the product exiting the high shear mixing process the product is packed without having been subject to any further mixing or working process.

A food composition in the form of a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion, the food composition comprising water, an oil phase comprising vegetable oil and fat crystals, and an oil-in-water emulsifier, and a process for preparing the same.

Baking ingredients that can be used as a fat replacement in dough compositions and baked goods are described. Baking ingredients include a thermo-reversible hydrocolloid and can be included in a dough composition or layered with a laminated dough. The baking ingredients lead to improved flavor, improved appearance, improved texture, and improved lubricity in reduced fat bakery products. Methods of making and using baking ingredients are also described.
