  • Publication number: 20080305239
    Abstract: One aspect of the present invention relates to particulate flavouring compositions having, based on the total weight of the composition, 0.1-40 wt % of flavouring substances, 10-90 wt % of one or more hydrocolloids, and 0.1-50 wt % of a lipid material having a melting point above 75° C. These flavouring compositions are particularly suitable for application in food products (including beverages), the preparation of which involves one or more heat processing steps, as well as in confectionery products such as chewing gum. Other aspects of the invention relate to a method of producing a particulate flavouring composition, to a food product containing such a flavouring composition and to a process of manufacturing a reconstitutable food product.

  • Publication number: 20070031582
    Abstract: The invention relates to a moisture and oxygen stable composition comprising inert core particles and a partial or complete coating thereon of at least one active compound encapsulated in a carbohydrate matrix, which matrix is characterised by 5 to 95 wt. % high molecular weight film forming carbohydrate; 5 to 30 wt. % mono, di and trisaccharides; and 0 to 30 wt. % maltodextrin. based on the total weight of the carbohydrate matrix, wherein the coated particle is further coated with a modified cellulose. The active compound to be encapsulated in the carbohydrate matrix can be selected from the group consisting of flavourants, fragrances, pharmaceuticals and wash-active components.
