Provided herein are purified hemicellulose compositions, sweetener compositions including purified hemicellulose compositions, as well as methods for making the same. Also provided are uses of the compositions.

The present invention concerns the use of a fat composition for sustaining an enhanced palatability of a food for pet over time, wherein said fat composition has a C12:0/C10:0 fatty acid weight ratio from about 0.85 to about 2.5 and/or a C14:0/C12:0 fatty acid weight ratio from about 0.45 to about 4.3. The present invention further concerns the use of said fat composition for preparing other enhanced palatability-sustaining fat compositions as well as foods for pet, all compositions and foods having an enhanced palatability sustained over time.

The invention provides a method for treating root—or tuber juice, comprising a) a pretreatment of the root—or tuber juice to remove root—or tuber lipids to a level below 28 g/kg dry weight; b) cooling the root—or tuber juice to a temperature of −0.3° C. to −16° C. to form ice crystals; and c) separating the ice crystals from the root—or tuber juice to obtain, as a first root—or tuber juice product, a concentrated root—or tuber juice. In addition, the invention provides methods to obtain protein depleted root—or tuber juice products, as well as products comprising root—or tuber free amino acids, and uses thereof.

Encapsulated active components for delivering a desired amount of the active component includes at least one active component encapsulated within a delivery vehicle obtained by cryogenically treating plant material. The active may be a desired flavor that is added to a consumable base to prepare a consumable product, such as food or beverage product, or to prepare an oral care product. Methods for making the delivery systems containing the active component and products containing the encapsulated active component delivery systems are also disclosed.
