Abstract: A frozen confection comprising: 25 wt% to 40 wt% freezing point depressants having a number average molecular weight of 200 g mol-1 to 275 g mol-1; distilled monoglycerides in an amount of 0.04 wt% to 1 wt%; and soluble fibre in an amount of 1.4 wt% to 15 wt%.

Abstract: A frozen confection comprising 20 wt % to 40 wt % freezing point depressants having a number average molecular weight of 200 g mol?1 to 275 g mol?1; and 0.5 wt % to 10 wt % protein comprising pulse protein and milk protein in a weight ratio of 1:2 to 1:6.

Abstract: A process for producing a frozen confectionery product comprising a frozen composition which contains inclusions in the form of frozen particles is provided, the process comprising: preparing a mix of ingredients having a total solids content of from 5 to 25% and containing from 0.2 to 2.0 wt % of one or more stabilisers; optionally pasteurising and/or homogenising and/or ageing the mix; freezing the mix to form frozen particles in a fragmented ice maker comprising a refrigerated barrel and a screw auger; and dosing the frozen particles into the frozen composition.

Abstract: A process for preparing an ice confection having a total solids content of from 8 to 25 wt % and an overrun of from 10 to 100% is provided, the process comprising the steps of: aerating and partially freezing a mix of ingredients; producing a slurry comprising the aerated, partially frozen mix and frozen particles which have a size of from 0.1 to 1 mm; wherein the amount of frozen particles is from 10 to 70% by weight of the slurry; and further freezing the slurry in a low temperature extruder. An ice confection is also provided.

Abstract: A process for making a frozen confection having a total solids content of less than 10% by weight of the frozen confection is provided, the process comprising: a) preparing a mix of ingredients comprising water and having a total solids content of at least 12% by weight of the mix; b) partially freezing the mix in a dynamic freezer; c) drawing the partially frozen mix from the freezer; d) combining the partially frozen mix with an amount of frozen particles to form a frozen confection; wherein the total solids content of the frozen particle is less than 1% by weight of the frozen particles; the mean size of the frozen particles is greater than 0.5 mm; and the amount of frozen particles is chosen such that the total solids content of the frozen confection is less than 10% by weight of the frozen confection. A frozen confection is also provided.
