Abstract: A process for manufacturing aerated and grained sugar-free boiled sweets comprises the steps consisting of boiling a syrup comprising, relative to the dry mater content, at least 60% by weight of a hydrogenated disaccharide so as to obtain a massecuite; beating the massecuite until cooling below the melting point of the hydrogenated disaccharide is obtained; working the resulting mass and aerating the mass; forming the aerated mass and allowing it to harden so as to obtain an aerated boiled sweet; and carrying out a forced graining in a moist medium so as to obtain an aerated grained sugar-free boiled sweet. Further includes is providing aerated grained sugar-free boiled sweet, wherein the sweetening dry matter content comprises at least 60% by weight of a hydrogenated disaccharide.

Abstract: A process for producing a low DE starch hydrolysate, involves fractionating a starch hydrolysate comprising a DE greater than about 18 using a nanofiltration membrane, having a molecular weight cut-off of less than about 4,000 daltons, under nanofiltration conditions effective to result in a low DE starch hydrolysate comprising a DE of less than about 25. A process for producing a low DE starch hydrolysate blend involves combining the product produced by the process of the present invention with At least one other substance in a predetermined blending ratio to result in a low DE starch hydrolysate blend. A process for hydrogenating a low DE starch hydrolysate produced by the process of the present invention to result in an hydrogenated low DE starch hydrolysate. A process for producing a substantially thermal and shelf-life stable emulsion comprising forming a mixture of the low DE starch hydrolysate of the invention with an effective concentration of at least one ingredient to result in an emulsion.
