Benefits of technology

[0011]Still another embodiment provides a gel-based dessert product that includes a structured fat component, water, and an edible starch. The structured fat component comprises citrus pulp fiber and an edible oil and it has a solid fat content of no greater than 5 wt % at 0° C. The gel-based dessert product may be devoid of hydrogenated lipids and have an FDA saturates content of no more than 20%, e.g., less than 15% of the total fat content of the gel-based dessert produ...

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, partial hydrogenation increases the trans fat content.
For many years, problems with the disposal of waste fruit material have prompted attempts to utilize this waste material.

Preblend System

[0088]This example describes certain useful preblend systems, including freeze-dried dry blend systems. A series of six combinations were prepared using different proportions of edible oil, citrus pulp fiber, and water, as set forth in Table 1. The oil was a high-oleic rapeseed oil commercially available from Cargill under the trademark CLEAR VALLEY 65, which has a SFC 0 of less than 5 wt %, less than 3% trans fat and less than 15% FDA saturates. The citrus pulp fiber (designated “CPF” in Table 1) was prepared in accordance with the processes described in United States Patent Application Publication No. US 2006 / 0115564.

Pudding Systems

[0091]A dairy pudding, namely a ready to eat (RTE) finished pudding, prepared with one of the dry blend systems of Example 1 was compared to three other formulations. All four of the formulations had the same basic formula shown in Table 2, but differed in terms of the nature of the fat component. In particular, the fat component of a first formulation (Pudding 2A) was a conventional vegetable bakery shortening sold under the trade name GOLD CUP by Vandemoortele NV of Gent, Belgium. The fat component in a second formulation (Pudding 2B) was CLEAR VALLEY 65 canola oil. The fat component in a third formulation (Pudding 2C) was the dry blend system produced as sample 1.3 in Example 1. The fat component in the fourth and final formulation (Pudding 2D) was 10 parts by weight CLEAR VALLEY 65 canola oil for each part of the same citrus pulp fiber used in Example 1, but these components were added separately rather than forming a dry blend system following the process of Exam...

Alternative Dry Blend System

[0097]This example describes certain useful preblend systems, including dry blend systems prepared using a fluidized bed dryer. For each of four tests, a wet blend system was prepared using citrus pulp fiber, edible oil, and water. The oil was a high-oleic rapeseed oil commercially available from Cargill under the trademark CLEAR VALLEY 75, which has a SFC 0 of less than 5 wt %, less than 3% trans fat and less than 15% FDA saturates. The citrus pulp fiber is commercially available from Fiberstar, Inc. of Willmar, Minn., USA under the trade name CITRI-FI 100M40. This wet blend system was then dried in a fluidized bed using varying amounts of a particulate starch as a carrier as set forth in Table 3. In each case, the particulate carrier was about 40 wt % POLARTEX 05735 and about 60 wt % POLARTEX 06754, both of which are modified food starches commercially available from Cargill.

Abstract

Gel-based dessert systems, e.g., pudding systems, and preblend systems include an edible lipid and citrus pulp fiber. One particularly useful dry mix is made by homogenizing a combination that includes citrus pulp fiber, an edible lipid, and water to form a homogenized product. The combination includes 1-20 parts by weight of the lipid for each part by weight of citrus pulp fiber. The homogenized product is then dried to form a dry blend system. It has been found that such a dry blend system can be used to replace shortenings used in puddings and the like to reduce trans and saturated fats while retaining or even improving rheology and stability of the pudding.
