A filling, coating or spread for use in food applications comprising a structured fat system, wherein the structured fat system comprises from 10 w/w % to 90 w/w % of a lipid and from 10 w/vv % to 90 w/w % of an edible porous particle, wherein the lipid is present as a continuous phase in said structured fat system. The use of a structured fat system for reducing the trans- and saturated fat content of a filling, coating or spread, wherein the structured fat system comprises from 10 w/w % to 90 w/w % of a lipid and from 10 w/w % to 90 w/w % of an edible porous particle, wherein the lipid is present as a continuous phase in said structured fat system.

A vegetable edible fat composition has a vegetable fat present in an amount of 50 to 90 percent by weight of the edible fat composition, an oat-derived material having dry matter in an amount of 1 to 10 percent by weight of the edible fat composition, and water. The pH of the composition is in the range from 4 to 6.5, and the composition is in form of an emulsion having an aqueous phase of water in a fat phase of the vegetable fat. The composition can be used as a spread or food preparation. A process is for manufacturing a vegetable edible fat composition.

The invention relates to a structured fat system for use in food applications. The invention also relates to the use of a structured fat system for reducing the trans- and saturated fat content of a food product.

In accordance with the invention, it was found, surprisingly, that a polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)-comprising biomass with other feedstuff components can be extruded at a low energy input of 12-28 Wh/kg to give an extrudate with a very high oil load capacity.

Disclosed are hydrated fat compositions comprising a water-in-oil emulsion comprising (a) a continuous phase comprising: a solid fat comprising a fully-hydrogenated vegetable oil, a stearine fraction of a vegetable oil, or a mixture thereof, in an amount ranging from about 5 wt. % to about 40 wt. % of the hydrated fat; and a low trans-fat liquid vegetable oil in an amount ranging from about 20 wt. % to about 80 wt. % of the hydrated fat composition; (b) a dispersed phase comprising water in an amount ranging from about 5 wt. % to about 60 wt. % of the hydrated fat composition; and (c) an emulsifier.

This document relates to food products containing highly conjugated heterocyclic rings complexed to an iron ion and one or more flavor precursors, and using such food products to modulate the flavor and/or aroma profile of other foods. The food products described herein can be prepared in various ways and can be formulated to be free of animal products.

This invention relates to alkyl 5-acyloxydecanoate having formula (1) as follows: ##STR00001##
wherein R.sub.1 denotes a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having one to four carbon atoms, R.sub.2 denotes an alkyl group having one to four carbon atoms, with the proviso that the case where R.sub.1 is a methyl group and R.sub.2 is a methyl group or an ethyl group is excluded, which is capable of giving to food products or the like a characteristic flavor, or a sensory impression, of milk, fat or cream, and to the use of the same in flavoring compositions.

Process to manufacture edible aerated water-in-oil emulsion comprising: from 0.5 to 50 wt. % of micronized fat powder comprising hardstock fat; from 10 to 85 wt. % of liquid oil; from 10 to 85 wt. % of water-phase; from 2 to 100 vol. % of gas-phase; wherein the gas has an average solubility in water at 20 degrees Celsius and at 1 bar of pressure of at most 0.75 gram gas per kg water; and wherein the gas has an average solubility in sunflower oil at 20 degrees Celsius and at 1 bar of pressure of at most 0.75 gram gas per kg oil; comprising the step of: mixing the fat powder, the liquid oil, the water-phase and the gas-phase to provide the edible aerated water-in-oil emulsion.
