A shelf stable liquid composition for sweetening, flavoring, and lightening coffee, comprises a sweetener system, a dairy-based lightener system, flavor, water, shortening, and a second emulsifier component. The ingredients are cooked to form a liquid composition that is shelf stable for at least three months at room temperature.

In some examples, a method of manufacturing a coffee flavoring or coffee substitute, include providing a predetermined amount of blackseeds, providing a predetermined amount of asafoetida, and roasting the predetermined amount of blackseeds and the predetermined amount of asafoetida.

Pharmaceutical preparations are proposed, comprising bitter-masking acting substances for reducing and/or inhibiting gastric acid secretion induced by food constituents.

A method designed to clarify the coffee oil contained in coffee grounds or in whole and/or damaged coffee beans. Said objective is achieved by way of a method that starts with inoculation of the coffee grounds or coffee beans with macromycetes, especially with white rot fungi, continuing with an incubation step that allows complete population of the coffee grounds or coffee beans by the fungal mycelium to be achieved, and finishing with steps of drying and extracting the coffee oil. The method disclosed allows colourless or pale yellow coffee oil to be produced, favouring the use thereof in cosmetic and food products, amongst others.

The present invention is in the field of the flavouring of foods. In particular, the present invention is directed to a process for the encapsulation of flavours and/or aromas. The particles are then later incorporated into the end preparation (the food), such as, for example, instant coffee. The focus is in particular firstly to obtain particles with high aroma loading in order to ensure a long-lasting aroma protection during storage, and secondly to control the particle properties in such a way that an optimum miscibility of the particles with foods is made possible. Decisive aspects in this connection are primarily shape, size and particle density. These aspects together are intended to bring about an improved taste experience for the end consumer when consuming the particles.

Pressurized non-dairy compositions that can be expelled from a pressurized container, typically through an actuator, into a beverage are described. Upon combining the non-dairy composition with the beverage, a portion of the non-dairy composition provides a stable foam on top of the beverage (“foaming”) and a portion of the non-dairy composition is mixed into and remains in the beverage (“creaming”).

Provided are new alkenyl carbonothioates of formula (I), their manufacture and their use as flavours and fragrances. Also provided are flavour and fragrance compositions and edible products, in particular coffee products, comprising the new alkenyl carbonothioates. ##STR00001##

A product having an internal substance protected by a rugged exterior shell is disclosed. The internal substance is reactive with the exterior shell but is separated therefrom by a coating on an interior surface of the external shell so that the product can be stored for a long period of time without the internal substance reacting with the exterior shell. The coating is meltable so that, when desired, the product may be heated (e.g. immersed in hot water or exposed to heat) in order to melt the coating so that the internal substance can react with the external shell so that the internal substance can excrete out of the exterior shell.
