  • Publication number: 20140037799
    Abstract: Agglomerated flavor clusters comprising a binder syrup, grain, sweetener, and flavoring agent, and hot cereal compositions comprising the agglomerated clusters are described. The agglomerated flavor clusters are hydroscopic and can be directly consumed similar to granola or mixed into a bulk hot cereal composition. When heated, the agglomerated flavor clusters liquefy and coat the grain components of the hot cereal composition providing a flavored hot cereal composition. As the agglomerated clusters exhibit reduced settling in hot cereal compositions, each single serving of the bulk hot cereal compositions of the disclosure comprises substantially the same flavor intensity and nutritional value.
