  • Patent number: 5185173
    Abstract: The invention is concerned with pumpable bread improver compositions comprising a liquid glyceride oil, in which solid fat particles are dispersed together with bread improver ingredients. The content of total solid particles of these compositions is at least 18 wt. %. The dispersed solid fat has a particle size of 0.01-0.05 mm and preferably has a melting point of at least 40.degree. C. Processes for the preparation of these compositions are also described. In one process, all ingredients are mixed and milled together at a specific temperature so that the particle size of the solid components will be less than 0.05 mm. In another process, the small fat particles are made separately by spray-crystallisation and are mixed with the rest of the milled bread improver composition, optionally in the form of a dispersion in a liquid oil.
