Rapid prototyping and fabrication method for 3-D food objects
InactiveUS6280785B1Versatile and Realistic Rapid PrototypingRapid productionLayered productsConfectioneryFree formControl signal
A freeform fabrication method for making a three-dimensional food object from a design created on a computer, including: (a) providing a support member by which the object is supported while being constructed; (b) operating a material dispensing head for dispensing a continuous or intermittent strand of food composition in a fluent state; this food composition including a liquid ingredient and a primary body-building food material and the dispensed food composition having a rigidity and strength sufficient for permitting the food composition to be built up layer by layer into a three-dimensional shape in a non-solid state; and (c) operating control devices for generating control signals in response to coordinates of the object design and controlling the position of the dispensing head relative to the support member in response to the control signals to control dispensing of the food composition to construct a 3-D shape of this object. The method optionally includes an additional step of applying a heat treatment to the 3-D shape after this 3-D shape is constructed. This method can be used to form an intricate shape of a cake mix, which is then baked in an oven. It can also be used to form a custom-designed decorative shape on the top surface of a pre-made cake.

Sealed, edible film strip packets and methods of making and using them
The invention provides, in one aspect, a method of making a confectionery packet or sachet formed with an edible film and enclosing a center composition. The packet or sachet can be designed to be placed in the mouth, where the film dissolves and the center composition is released. In preferred embodiments, the center composition comprises a sugar alcohol, such as xylitol, that creates a cooling sensation. Many other flavors and / or colors or sensates can also be used in the center composition, and some embodiments include breath-freshening, anti-bacterial, nutriceutical, or pharmaceutical compositions in the center composition. The invention also comprises the edible packets or sachets, especially those composed of film with a desired retained water level suitable for producing a self-sealing film and / or an edible film packet that is stable at room temperature for at least six to twelve months.

Reduced digestible carbohydrate food having reduced blood glucose response
ActiveUS20050118326A1Hypoglycemic responseReduced digestibleDough treatmentLeguminous plant bakery productsAdditive ingredientFood material
Reducing the digestion of digestible carbohydrates in a digestible carbohydrate-based material, and reducing the absorption of the digestion product(s) of digestible carbohydrates (that is, simple sugars) within the small intestine. The undigested digestible carbohydrate and the unabsorbed digestion products pass through the small intestines and into the colon, where they are fermented. In effect, the food materials made by practicing the present invention cause a controlled amount of digestible carbohydrate to by-pass the small intestine, resulting in the fermentation of digestible carbohydrates in the colon. The invention also provides for processing of a digestible carbohydrate-based ingredient with a non-digestible food film material, to form a reduced digestible carbohydrate food having a protective food film network, which can inhibit or prevent digestion of the digestible carbohydrate. The present invention also provides for processing of a digestible carbohydrate-based ingredient with a non-digestible food film material, to provide a resulting reduced digestible carbohydrate food containing a viscosity-building component that contributes to the formation of a viscous intestinal chyme that can inhibit or prevent digestion of the digestible carbohydrate and can inhibit adsorption of digestion products of digestible carbohydrates in the small intestine.

Method and apparatus for applying aqueous coating to cooked foods
A cooked snack food or cooked edible core material, such as roasted nuts, or baked snack chips, while still hot from the cooking step, is tumbled and sprayed with an aqueous solution of a water-soluble, film-forming coating component, such as a maltodextrin. The tumbling and spraying is performed immediately after cooking so that latent heat from the cooked edible core material, reduces the moisture content of the applied aqueous solution to form a dry, thin film coating of the coating component on the edible core material. The need for a separate, subsequent drying step or forced air drying equipment to reduce the moisture content is eliminated by evaporative cooling of the hot cooked snacks and flashing of the applied aqueous coating solution. The dry, coated cooked snack may be cooled to obtain a snack food having a thin, uniform coating which enhances appearance, texture, taste and shelf life.

Sandwich and method for the production thereof
The invention relates to a sandwich consisting of two toasted slices of bread and an edible filling placed between said slices. According to the invention, the filling is essentially arranged in the inner region of the surfaces of the slices of bread and the slices of bread are pressed together in a peripheral edge area with greater force than in the inner region so that the slices of bread adhere to each other and form a cohesive sandwich arrangement, whereby the filling is packed between the slices of bread. The invention also relates to a method for the production of a toasted sandwich that consists of two slices of bread and an edible filling placed between said slices. According to the invention, the filling is initially and essentially arranged in the inner region of the surface of a first underlying slice of bread. A second slice of bread is subsequently placed thereon. The sandwich arrangement is pressed together in an edge area with greater force than in the inner region under the effect of heating, whereby the slices of bread and the filling placed therebetween form a cohesive sandwich arrangement whose peripheral edge areas are closed. The invention further relates to a device for the production of an inventive sandwich.
