It is described a capsule (10) for dispensing a beverage comprising: a main body (20) suitable for containing a product (P) to be dispensed, which comprises a bottom (22) and a side wall (24), extending from said bottom (22) and ending with an edge (26); a closing member (30) suitable for sealably closing said main body (20); and at least one first valve means (40) suitable for allowing the beverage to come out from the capsule (10) or for allowing a liquid to enter into the capsule (10). The main body (20) is made from cellulose pulp, the closing member (30) is made from biocompatible material and the capsule (10) further comprises a first sealing film made from edible material comprising at least one salt of alginic acid (23) and positioned inside said bottom (22) of the main body (20) at least at said at least one first valve means (40). It is also described a method for manufacturing a capsule for dispensing a beverage, as defined above.

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for manufacturing a solid formulation for oral administration, comprising an edible substrate portion on which a composition comprising a first pharmaceutical active ingredient is deposited, and solid formulations made thereby. The methods comprise providing an edible substrate in the form of a film comprising a plurality of portions, spraying a liquid formulation comprising the active ingredient and a solvent onto an edible substrate portion and evaporating the solvent to form a solid composition deposited on the edible substrate portion; measuring the quantity of active ingredient supported by the edible substrate portion and comparing to a predetermined value, and dividing the edible substrate into the plurality of portions.

The present invention provides a rice wrapper, in which an outer film divided into two can be easily removed. One side part of the rice wrapper 10, which includes one part of the outer film divided along the dividable section and an inner film 16a connected to the one part thereof, is separated from the other side part of the rice wrapper, which includes the other part of the outer film divided and an inner film 16b connected to the other part thereof, when the outer film 14 is divided along the dividable section 12, and a part of the dividable section 12 is connected to the one side part, and the one side part can be separated from the other side part, in one action, by pulling the dividable section 12.

A seasoning bag for seasoning a foodstuff that includes an edible adhesive adhered to an interior of the seasoning bag and a seasoning adhered to the interior of the seasoning bag via the edible adhesive. The seasoning bag may be used in connection the preparation and/or cooking of foodstuffs. The bag may be used to season, marinade, and store a foodstuff. The bag may also be a cook-in bag, suitable for roasting, microwaving, slow cooking, and/or boiling.

Disclosed in one aspect is a pickled vegetable-based edible packaging paper, the raw material of which is composed of the following components in parts by weight: 92-95 parts of a high dietary fiber-level pickled vegetable, a compounding thickener (0.6-0.8 parts of pectin, 0.6-0.8 parts of potato starch, and 0.2-0.4 parts of soy protein), and a compounding plasticizer (3-4 parts of sorbitol, and 0.5-1.5 parts of citral); and further disclosed in another aspect is a method for preparing a pickled vegetable-based edible packaging paper. The pickled vegetable paper of the present invention is a novel pickled vegetable-based product having both edible and practical functions, which product is rich in dietary fibers, retains the unique flavor and color of the pickled vegetable, has toughness and non-stickiness to teeth, and is soft and easy to process after being wetted.

The invention relates to an edible and biodegradable package material composition and uses thereof. Specifically, the invention relates to a package material composition comprising a polysaccharide component, a protein component, or a combination thereof, in order to produce a transformational package that is both edible and naturally biodegradable. The package material composition of the invention provides a structural integrity to serve a full range of uses for packaging and shipping of both wet and dry products.

Technical Problem

A problem of the present invention is, in one aspect, to provide a capsule formulation including an active ingredient and the like that may deteriorate upon contacting an acid, wherein the capsule formulation makes it possible not to deteriorate the active ingredient and the like by a gastric acid which enters into a capsule film.

Technical Solution

A capsule formulation comprising an active ingredient and oil, wherein said capsule of said formulation is an enteric capsule comprising a water soluble film forming polymer and gellan gum; said oil is an oil acceptable for pharmaceuticals or foods; and said active ingredient is encapsulated in said capsule together with said oil, and the production method thereof, are provided.

Embodiments include edible containers and an example method for making the edible containers. In one possible embodiment, a mixture of seeds, vegetables, fruits, spices, and water is blended to create a paste. The paste is then deposited onto a mold of the desired container shape, and smoothed to a consistent thickness. The mold and paste are then dehydrated, and the container separated from the mold. The container is then dehydrated further to a desired moisture content. The process may be automated by using a rotating table with the mold, and an automatic dispenser.

The present disclosure relates to low-sugar, and preferably sugar-free, edible and/or biodegradable materials, and to edible and/or biodegradable vessels for holding foods and liquids for consumption. Specifically, the disclosure relates to sugar-free edible and/or biodegradable cups, straws, and other vessels, capable of holding hot and/or cold liquids for extended periods of time. The present disclosure and its embodiments further relates to a sugar free edible and/or biodegradable vessel made from natural ingredients. The vessel may have an extended shelf life, and is sturdy enough to be used for a variety of applications.
