CA 2368635

A food composition comprising soluble solids in the range of about 50 % to about 90 % by weight, at least 70 % by weight thereof being a sweetening comprising sucrose and non sucrose sweeteners in a weight ratio of sucrose to non sucrose sweeteners of 0:100 to 95:5, wherein the non sucrose sweetener is of a DE (Dextrose Equivalent) of at least about 30, a carrageenan component in an amount sufficient to form a gel, and water to balance, and wherein the gelation temperature of said composition is < 95 °C. Said food composition may be produced by a process comprising: (a) dispersing carrageenan in a syrup of a non sucrose sweetener at a temperature sufficient to disperse the carrageenan in said syrup while stirring; (b) adding water and heating the mixture to the boiling point thereof; (c) adjusting the soluble solids content to from about 50 % to about 90 % by weight, (d) depositing said mixture and (e) cooling said mixture to below the depositing temperature of said mixture. The food composition gels rapidly and forms a gel at temperatures of below 95 °C. The food composition is especially confectionery products such as soft candies, marshmallows or glazings.

L'invention porte sur une préparation alimentaire comportant: des solides solubles à raison d'environ 50 à 70 % en poids; au moins 70 % en poids d'un système d'édulcorants dans un rapport sucrose/non sucrose compris entre 0/100 et 95/5, l'édulcorant non sucrose, de la DE (équivalent Dextrose), représentant au moins 30 %; un composant de carraghénine en quantité suffisante pour former un gel; et le reliquat d'eau, la température de gélification de ladite préparation étant inférieure à 95 DEG C. Ladite préparation peut s'obtenir par un procédé comprenant: (a) dispersion de la carraghénine dans un sirop d'édulcorant non sucrose à une température suffisante pour la disperser par agitation; (b) adjonction d'eau puis chauffage au point d'ébullition; (c) adjonction de solubles solides pour qu'ils représentent entre environ 50 et environ 90 % du poids; (e) et refroidissement du mélange jusqu'à une température inférieure à celle de dépôt. Ladite préparation, qui se gélifie rapidement à des températures inférieures à 95 DEG C, sert spécialement en confiserie, à la confection de bonbons mous, de marshmallows, ou de glaçages.
