Use of high acyl gellan in whipping cream.

This disclosure relates generally to whippable food products and methods for making the whippable food products and for making whipped food products therefrom. In one embodiment, a whippable food product has less than 5% by weight fat and includes about 0.5% to about 30% by weight of a dietary fiber; about 50% to about 95% by weight of water; up to about 5% by weight of a protein; up to about 5% by weight of a food starch; up to about 5% by weight of an emulsifier; and up to about 5% by weight of a hydrocolloid. The total amount of the protein, food starch, emulsifier, and hydrocolloid is within the range of about 0.25% to about 20% by weight. In certain embodiments, the whippable food product is substantially free of emulsifier. Such a whippable food product can be capable of being aerated, for example, to a stable foam having an overrun in the range of 100%-700%.

The invention includes a composition when used for the subsequent preparation of an egg white foam, characterised in that the composition includes an amount of egg white material and at least one thickener. The amount of thickener(s) is at least about 2.0% w/w in the composition and the composition has been heat treated at or above about 40° C. prior to preparing the egg white foam. The invention also encompasses method of use, novel food products, cooked or uncooked, and methods of manufacture.

The invention relates to an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions that can be aerated to produce foamed emulsions. The O/W emulsions of the present invention consist of: 20-45 wt. % water; 4-40 wt. % oil; 3-12 wt. % of cyclodextrin selected from alpha-cyclodextrin, beta-cyclodextrin and combinations thereof; 20-60 wt. % of saccharides selected from monosaccharides, disaccharides, non-cyclic oligosaccharides, sugar alcohols and combinations thereof; 0-30 wt. % of other edible ingredients; wherein the emulsion contains at least 80% of the saccharides by weight of water. The O/W emulsions of the present invention are capable of forming foamed emulsions with high firmness and excellent shape retaining properties. These foamed emulsions further offer the advantage that they exhibit excellent stability.
