Abstract: Described herein are soluble rice flour compositions having desirable chemical properties and solubility and viscosity functionality for use in food products such as, beverage mix, infant food, a medicinal product, an emulsion, convenience foods, or a snack-based filling. Such compositions can be used as a partial or complete replacement of maltodextrin and offer a more clean-label alternative.

Abstract: A method of forming a sucrose-6-ester includes in sequence the steps of: a) contacting sucrose with a organotin-based acylation promoter in a solvent in the presence of a base selected from amines and basic alkali metal salts; b) removing water to form a tin-sucrose adduct; and c) contacting the tin-sucrose adduct with an acylating agent to form the sucrose-6-ester. The sucrose-6-ester may then be converted to sucralose.

Abstract: A sweetener particle includes a solid core, a first solid layer on the solid core, and a second solid layer on the first solid layer, the second solid layer defining an outermost surface of the particle. The solid core includes a first edible carbohydrate, the first solid layer includes a non-carbohydrate sweetener and optionally a second edible carbohydrate, and the second solid layer includes a sweet carbohydrate but no non-carbohydrate sweetener. The particles may be made by a) applying to a particulate core material including a first edible carbohydrate a solution of a non-carbohydrate sweetener and optionally a second edible carbohydrate in a solvent, and removing the solvent to form a first solid layer on the core material; and b) applying to the product of a) a solution of a sweet carbohydrate in a solvent and removing the solvent to form a second solid layer on the first solid layer.
