Abstract: A coated food product is produced by combining a plurality of dry ingredients to form a dry mix and combining the dry mix with water to form a dough. A plurality of base pieces is formed from the dough. A slurry is prepared by combining at least sucrose, fruit purée and calcium carbonate. The slurry is combined with the plurality of base pieces to coat the plurality of base pieces and form a plurality of coated base pieces. After preparing the slurry and before combining the slurry with the plurality of base pieces, the slurry is stored or held for at least 30 minutes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel treatment composition and process for use thereof in treating food products and food intermediates to prevent acrylamide formation therein. The treatment composition may be used in single, home use settings as well as commercial applications for larger scale treatment of food products in the course of manufacture. The treatment composition of the present invention uses at least one of alpha-cyclodextrin, beta-cyclodextrin, gamma-cyclodextrin or combinations and modified derivatives thereof along with a suitable carrier such as in an aerosol, liquefied mister and the like.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel treatment composition for use in treating food products and food intermediates. The treatment composition may be used in single, home use settings as well as commercial applications for larger scale treatment of food products in the course of manufacture. The treatment composition of the present invention uses a primary amine, such as the amino acid lysine or combinations of amino acids and modified derivatives thereof in order to limit the formation of acrylamide in food products and food intermediates without sacrificing taste or other organoleptic properties of the food product.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel uses of cyclodextrins, to reduce acrylamide levels in food products and food intermediates after the food product or food intermediate has been cooked or otherwise treated to make it suitable for human or animal consumption, as well as to enhance the hypocholesterolemic benefit either individually or synergistically with other components.
