The present invention relates to the production of edible wafers comprising (i) 100 parts by weight of a flour that comprises at least 5% by weight of the total flour of a non-wheat flour (such as millet; maize, barley, oats, rice, rye and/or soybeans) and/or at least 5% by weight of the total flour of a soluble fibre; (ii) an amount of water so the weight ratio of total amount of water to total amount of flour in the batter (denoted herein as R[w/f]) is no more than 1.5; and (iii) at least one enzyme comprising a cellulase in an amount of at least 0.0001 parts by weight; where the batter has a viscosity of from 200 to 1900 cps so it can be both pumped and baked on a heated surface without spillage. Preferably the flour has a low amount of (preferably is free of) gluten and/or gliadin proteins.

The invention describes products, uses thereof, compositions thereof, and methods to prepare products formed from Maillard reaction products from a sugar donor and/or sweet tea extracts, stevia extracts, swingle (mogroside) extracts, one or more sweet tea extract components, one or more steviol glycosides, one or more mogrosides, one or more glycosylated sweet tea glycosides, one or more glycosylated steviol glycosides or one or more glycosylated mogrosides and an amine donor/reactant.

A Stevia extract made from leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant is described. The extract has desired levels of steviol glycosides and is useful in food, beverage, and other consumable products.

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition for skin whitening.

A method of reducing oil and/or fat uptake of a fried food comprises the steps of: A) contacting food i) with a batter comprising starch and a cellulose ether or ii) with a breading composition comprising a cellulose ether or iii) first with a batter comprising starch and then with a breading composition comprising a cellulose ether, B) contacting the battered or breaded food obtained in step A) with an aqueous liquid being different from the batter and breading composition in step A), C) optionally freezing the battered or breaded food obtained in step B), and D) frying the battered or breaded food obtained in step B) or C).

Ingredients include tapioca starch, tigernut flour, and cassava flour OR almond flour, fruit power, or dried fruit, or spices of ginger, nutmeg, cloves, or cocoa powder or chocolate chips, and/or tree nuts, cream of tartar, baking soda, sea salt, cinnamon spice, pure powder vanilla, pure V50% mongroside monk fruit powder.

For each mix, start with tapioca starch that serves as a “binder” for the grain free flours. Tigernut flour is added to each mix to prevent finished product from being gummy and not bready. Add Cassava flour or Almond flour to create two different mixes with carbohydrate alternatives.

To each mix, add cream of tartar, baking soda, sea salt, pure powdered vanilla (no fillers), cinnamon spice (do not add to chocolate mix), V50% mongroside powered monk fruit. Add desired dried fruit powder, dried fruit, or spices to include cloves, ginger and nutmeg, or cocoa powder, and/or chocolate chips, and/or tree nuts or no nuts.

An oil- or fat-processed starch, exhibiting a solubility of equal to or higher than 9.5% by mass and equal to or lower than 45% by mass, and an emulsifying capacity of equal to or higher than 50% and equal to or lower than 100%.

Lower calorie multiphase foodstuffs comprising oligosaccharides, or mixtures thereof, with a perceived sweetness to humans that is at least as sweet as a higher calorie foodstuff are provided herein.

Dough compositions that can be baked to provide baked articles (e.g., cinnamon rolls) having an extended shelf life of about 7 days or greater (e.g., about 14 days, about 21 days, or about 28 days or greater). The dough composition may be a developed dough compositions or an under-developed dough compositions. The dough compositions may include one or more shelf life enhancing agents.
