  • Shortening replacing and fresh slice improving agents for yeast-raised bakery products
    Patent number: 4695469
    Abstract: Agents and methods of use thereof for replacing the conventional triglyceridal shortening in yeast-raised bakery products, particularly pan breads, with resulting fresh slice characteristics which are at least acceptable comprise from about 2.5% to about 97.5% by weight succinylated monoglycides, or edible salt derivatives thereof, and a remainder portion of either sodium stearoyl lactylates, calcium stearoyl lactylates, lactylic stearate, or mixtures thereof. Preferably, the triglyceridal shortening of the bakery products is totally replaced by the agents in powdered form.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 17, 1983
    Date of Patent: September 22, 1987
    Assignee: Breddo, Inc.

  • Stearoyl lactylate salt composition having improved physical properties and method of production
    Patent number: 4544569
    Abstract: A stearoyl lactylate salt composition and method of production thereof wherein the composition has improved handling and storage characteristics. The lactylate salt is thermally mixed with from about 2% to about 30% (by weight) of hydrogenated stearin which has from about 50% to 100% (by weight of fatty acid) C.sup.18 fatty acid and an iodine value of less than 7.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 29, 1982
    Date of Patent: October 1, 1985
    Assignee: Top-Scor Products, Inc.
    Inventor: Curtis J. Forsythe
  • Shortening replacing and fresh slice improving agents for yeast-raised bakery products
    Patent number: 4399155
    Abstract: Agents and methods of use thereof for replacing the conventional triglyceridal shortening in yeast-raised bakery products, particularly pan breads, with resulting fresh slice characteristics comprising about 20% by weight succinylated monoglycides, or edible salt derivatives thereof, and a remainder portion of a combination of sodium stearoyl lactylates and calcium stearoyl lactylates. Preferably, the triglyceridal shortening of the bakery products is totally replaced by the agents in powdered form.

  • Esterification rate in production of acyl lactylate salts
    Patent number: 4146548
    Abstract: A method of producing, at an improved reaction rate, acyl lactylate salts, such as sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate, calcium stearoyl-2-lactylate and mixtures thereof, which involves the addition of from about 2% to about 30% (by weight of final salt composition) of substantially fully hydrogenated stearin comprising at least 50% (by weight of fatty acid) C.sub.18 fatty acid and having an iodine value of less than about 7. The intermediate reaction charge is also disclosed.
