Abstract: Compositions comprising soluble oligosaccharides and insoluble saccharides are provided. Methods for the formation of the compositions, food products, baked goods, or sweeteners, including the enzymatic production of the saccharides, the mixtures with various ratios and properties of the saccharides, and the uses of the same are also provided.

Abstract: Flavoring precursor compositions including a first oligosaccharide component and a second oligosaccharide component are provided. The first oligosaccharide component may include cello-oligosaccharide. The second oligosaccharide component may include an oligosaccharide that is not cello-oligosaccharide. Also provided herein are cooked food products.

Abstract: Compositions comprising soluble oligosaccharides and insoluble saccharides are provided. Methods for the formation of the compositions, food products, baked goods, or sweeteners, including the production of the saccharide particles, the saccharide particles with various ratios and properties of the saccharides, and the uses of the same are also provided.

Abstract: Compositions comprising polysaccharides and oligosaccharides are provided. Methods for the formation of the compositions, including the enzymatic production of the oligosaccharides, and the uses of the compositions in foodstuffs, cosmetics, and nutraceuticals are also provided.

Abstract: Lower calorie multiphase foodstuffs comprising oligosaccharides, or mixtures thereof, with a perceived sweetness to humans that is at least as sweet as a higher calorie foodstuff are provided herein.

Abstract: Methods of forming an ingredient for human consumption are provided herein. The methods may include isolating one or more soluble polysaccharides from a biomass, generating one or more oligosaccharides from the biomass, and combining the one or more isolated soluble polysaccharides with the generated oligosaccharides to form the ingredient. Methods of pretreating a biomass are also provided. The methods may include administering a physical pretreatment to a biomass, administering a gentle pretreatment to the physically pretreated biomass, and administering a strong pretreatment to the gently pretreated biomass. Ingredients for human consumption are also provided.

Abstract: Compositions that can be used in foodstuff, cosmetic, or nutraceutical products, and consumer products comprising such compositions are provided. The compositions may comprise at least one or more oligosaccharides and one or more components. The compositions may comprise a sweet taste and may be suitable to be used as sweeteners, binders, and/or fiber content enhancers in finished products such as consumable products. The compositions may provide a favorable sweet taste, a desirable texture, or other desirable characteristics.
