Abstract: A thin puff dough biscuit for a refrigerated or frozen food product. The biscuit has a laminar structure containing 6 to 10 sheets of puff dough and a maximum thickness of at most 2 mm. The biscuit is baked between two heated surfaces so as to prevent the development of the puff dough, and it is coated with a composition, in particular a fatty composition, which serves as a moisture barrier. This biscuit serves as an inclusion or an annex in a composite frozen cake that has at least one layer of the preceding biscuit included in a mass of cream and in which the layers of biscuit are separated from each other by layers of cream.

Abstract: To prepare instant food products having a long storage life, such as soups or sauces incorporating a garnishing, including vegetables having intermediate moisture content which are stabilized microbiologically and organoleptically without the aid of humectants such as polyols and sugars and which, when prepared in the soups or sauces, resemble freshly prepared products, the vegetables are blanched or cooked, partially dehydrated and dry mixed with salt. Glutamate and anti-mycotic agents may be added and the vegetables may be compacted to further enhance their stability.
