Abstract: The invention is a high fat biscuit mix as well as dough and biscuit products resulting therefrom. The mix comprises flour, a leavening agent, and emulsifier along with a protein supplement and shortening. The shortening has a high initial solids content at low temperatures (50.degree. F.) and a melting point of 104.degree. F. or less resulting in a biscuit product having an improved moistness, flakiness and uniform height. The protein supplement and emulsifier generally provide a product having an improved outer crust layer, improved height and shape, and an interior which is tender without being doughy. The mix and resulting dough comprise a high concentration of fat and further a high concentration of fat contributed by shortening chips within the dough.

Abstract: Aerated foam food products of the frozen dessert type are provided with improved stability and smoothness, thereby allowing them to be stored and distributed at 0.degree. F. (-18.degree. C.) without loss of quality. Improved stability is achieved by using a protein bridging edible multivalent cation containing electrolyte.
