The present invention relates a sugar reduced wafer composition comprising, 60-80 wt. % of flour, 10-23 wt. % of sucrose, 0.5-8.0 wt. %, preferably 0.5-5 wt. % of oil or fat and 5-20 wt. % of non-digestible fibers wherein the total amount of mono and disaccharides is 10-25 wt. %; all wt. % being in weight percentage of the composition dry mass. The invention also relates to a baked sugar reduced wafer such as a wafer cone or edible container made with this composition and a process for manufacturing the sugar reduced wafer.

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.

The invention is a flavored croissant and method of making same, more specifically, a banana nut croissant, an apple cinnamon walnut croissant, a coconut macadamia croissant and a cherry pecan croissant. The invention is further directed to a flavored croissant product that can be stored frozen.

A food supplement for helping alleviate the side effects of cancer and cancer treatments is disclosed which is formed from a mixture including at least one edible oil, at least one chopped fruit or fruit paste; at least one ground nut or seed meal or ground nut or seed butter; and honey. The food supplement has a volume of less than three cubic inches and provides at least 100 kilocalories of energy, making it small in volume but with a high energy density. The food supplement can have a high fat content which can make the food supplement moist and easy to eat while providing the necessary calories need for patients combatting cancer and undergoing cancer treatments who often have a severely reduced appetite.

A flavor delivery system including comminuted seeds, comminuted nuts, or mixtures thereof and a liquid flavor. A method for protecting a liquid flavor from oxidation by combining the liquid flavor with comminuted seeds, comminuted nuts, or mixtures thereof. A method for making a food product including adding a flavor delivery system including comminuted seeds, comminuted nuts, or mixtures thereof and a liquid flavor to an edible base. A food product including a flavor delivery system including comminuted seeds, comminuted nuts, or mixtures thereof, and a liquid flavor, and an edible base.

An essentially carbohydrate-free, protein-based flour substitute and methods for preparing the same are disclosed herein. The flour substitute may be used to make pizza crusts, chips, taco shells, tortillas, crackers, sandwich thins, and other food products that are traditionally flour based. The organoleptic properties of the disclosed flour substitute preferably resemble the organoleptic properties of traditional baked goods and are substantially different from the organoleptic properties of traditional meat products. The disclosed flour substitute comprises a meat or nut flour, a flavor-masking spice, salt, and a vegetable, fruit, or plant-based oil or an oil-based spray. The disclosed flour substitute is used to make substitute food products that preferably resemble, in both appearance and taste, the traditional food products that the substitute food products are replacing. The flour substitute is preferably fiber-free and does not contain any other non digestible carbohydrates. Methods of preparing the disclosed flour substitute are also disclosed herein.

A baked food composition is provided that exhibits an unexpectedly loose, crunchy texture and multi-textural chew. The baked composition comprises a high amount of expanded inclusions and shredded root vegetable, which are agglomerated by a binder component comprising low amounts of oil, added sugar, and flour. The food composition is preferably free of hydrocoiloid gums and sugar syrups.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a method for producing an almond-flavored oil and fat with which it is possible to reduce an amount of almond flour used in making confectionery. It was found that an oil and fat having a good roasted almond flavor can be obtained by a production method including heating an oil and fat in the presence of 0.6 to 20% by mass of an almond-derived raw material with respect to the oil. In particular, a stronger and better flavor could be obtained by using blanched almond flour and heating a reaction system purged with an inert gas.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of food processing. Use of sucrose and maltose as binders in the existing energy bars leads to high hardness and adhering tooth in energy bars. Aiming at the problem, the present disclosure provides a preparation method of a low-sugar whole potato flour energy bar. Using starch gel and sugar alcohol as binders, whole potato flour and dried honey powder are added to prepare the energy bar; the starch is gelatinized, the sugar alcohol is dissolved, and gelatinized starch and a sugar alcohol solution are mixed in a mass ratio of 2:1 to 1:1 to prepare the binder; the binder is mixed with stir-fried whole potato flour and the dried honey powder, stirred evenly, and subjected to mold pressing or cool forming to obtain the energy bar.
