Cold desserts incorporating gelatin-based (gummy) components are provided in this paper. In particular, stick-mounted cold desserts, edible-cone cold desserts, and container-served desserts with gelatin-based components are described. The gelatin-based components of these desserts are made from gelatin-based candy material that is specially-formulated for consumption at cold temperatures. The gelatin-based components may be used with other components of a cold dessert such as with flavored water ice, ice cream, sherbet, sorbet, and the like as described throughout this paper.

The present invention relates to solid, at least three-phase active substance preparations, in which two separate phases are embedded multiparticulately into a coherent, active substance-free and antioxidant-free phase, where one of the embedded phases comprises at least one oxidation-sensitive active substance and the second comprises at least one antioxidant. The invention also relates to a method for producing these active substance preparations, and to the use thereof in food supplements, foods, feeds, body care products, and pharmaceuticals.

A method for producing a collagenous material in particle form, comprises: extracting a collagen- and fat-containing animal raw material using an aqueous extraction solution; optionally separating at least one part of the aqueous phase from the extraction residue; separating the extraction residue into a collagenous solid phase, an aqueous phase, and a fat phase; mixing at least one part of the collagenous solid phase with at least one part of the aqueous phase; at least partly drying the mixed phases; and comminuting the dried phases in order to obtain the collagenous material in particle form.

The present invention pertains to a method of preparation of chewy candies includes branched maltodextrins and crystalline allulose particles in such a way to maintain chewiness, to bring the body of the chew, to limit sandiness, to avoid hardening with time and to lower stickiness textures, and even in such a way to avoid cold flow.

In one embodiment, a confectionary comprises 50 to 75 wt. % erythritol, 0 to 75 wt. % of at least one additional sweetener, at least one stabilizer, water, and a first active ingredient. The water may comprise 0.5 to 3 wt. % of the confectionary. The water may have a water activity of from 0.3 to 0.5. The confectionary may be aerated such that the density of the confectionary is 0.05 to 0.3 grams per cubic centimeter.
