Abstract: The present invention is directed to an alcohol containing bulk frozen dessert product that is formed by adding an alcohol containing composition to a frozen dessert product premix after the premix has been pasteurized. The alcohol containing composition is comprised of an alcohol, a water based mixer, and a stabilizer and/or emulsifier. The alcohol containing bulk frozen dessert product may have an alcohol content from about 2 to about 10% and will be able to be stored and consumed at temperatures for traditional bulk frozen dessert products.

Abstract: A process for making an alcohol-containing frozen comestible substantially devoid of ice crystal agglomerations and/or ice crystal striations and/or trapped air and/or liquids is provided. The process includes substantially flash freezing an alcohol-containing liquid composition so as to produce a substantially single-phase solid alcohol-containing composition. The solid alcohol-containing composition, and/or pieces thereof, are then exposed to an environment having temperature of from about ?15° C. to about ?30° C. so as to soften the solid alcohol-containing compositions and/or meld the pieces thereof into a single mass. The temperature of the single mass is then reduced so as to harden the single mass. Also, a process for incorporating a frozen alcohol-containing liquid composition into a non-alcohol-containing fraction is provided. Alcohol-containing liquid compositions suitable for use in the process are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a single phase alcohol based frozen product. The single phase product is manufactured by introducing a premix, which includes alcohol, into a body of cryogen which freezes the premix rapidly. The single phased product does not include any liquid or gaseous components. The invention elevates the melting and fusing temperature of the pellets such that the storage temperatures of the pellets are similar to bulk frozen desserts. The invention may utilize the ingredients of bulk frozen desserts with the addition of alcohol. The invention is stable at retail and home freezer situations. The formulation and manufacture of the single phase product is different from bulk frozen desserts as well as other alcohol containing frozen products. The result is a product that maintains the desired individuality of the pellets while maintaining structure, such that fusing is inhibited at the storage and serving temperature.
