Abstract: A filler cream containing soybean oil is disclosed which has an improved "get away" property resulting in a rapid burst of flavor when consumed. The filler cream ingredients are mixed, aerated, and cooled simultaneously to obtain a specific gravity of between about 0.85 and about 1.20. The resulting filler cream is utilized as a filler for sandwich cookies or other baked goods.

Abstract: A sandwich cream filling composition of improved creaminess comprising a fat matrix consisting essentially of a plastic fat of defined SFI profile and melt point and a high stability oil also of defined SFI profile and melt point, said composition being characterized as having good stand-up throughout a wide temperature range from about 50.degree. F. to about 90.degree. F. and an imperceptible solids content at temperatures above about 98.5.degree. F.

Abstract: A non-aqueous, lipid-based, stable, flavored coating having a smooth, non-grainy texture, spreadable at room temperature but capable of form retention when applied to a substrate at a temperature up to about 110.degree. F.; comprising about 10-70% of a hydrogenated vegetable oil having a Wiley Melting Point less than about 90.degree. F.; about 30-90% of a particulate friable, non-hygroscopic bulking agent; about 0 to a flavoring amount of a flavorant; and about 0.1 to about 8% of a lipid stabilizer having a Capillary Melting Point in the range of about 125.degree.-150.degree. F., said vegetable oil and stabilizer defining on cooling a lipid matrix for the bulking agent, said bulking agent being substantially impalpable in the lipid matrix.

Abstract: There is disclosed a sandwich cream filling composition comprising a fat matrix consisting essentially of a plastic fat of defined SFI profile and melt point and a hard butter also of defined SFI profile and melt point. The composition is characterized as having good stand-up throughout a wide temperature range from about 50.degree. F. to about 90.degree. F. and an imperceptible solids content at temperatures above about 98.5.degree. F.

Abstract: A filler cream is disclosed which has a rapid "get away" that is achieved by aerating and mixing the filler cream to a specific gravity of between about 0.70 and about 0.82. The resulting filler cream utilizes fat or oleaginous compositions with specifically identified solid fat indexes. Specific oleaginous compositions suitable for use with this invention are disclosed.

Abstract: There is disclosed non-sweet, savory, flavored baking chips (e.g., cheese baking chip), a process for making the same, and use of the chips in a variety of food items, such as cookies, cakes, and other baked products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel, edible lauric hard butter compositions suitable for the preparation of confectionery coatings, and particularly to a novel emulsifier ester blend found to be beneficial in improving the performance of lauric hard butters in confectionery coatings, towards obtaining unexpectedly high gloss and gloss retention.
