COMPOSITION CONTAINING VEGETABLE OIL, CARAMEL AND PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition comprising vegetable oil, caramel and one or more phenolic compounds. The caramel and one or more phenolic compounds together prevent oxidation of the vegetable oil, such that the amount of EDTA in the composition can be reduced. The caramel has been heated such that it does not impart a dark colour to the composition. The invention also relates to a method to prepare the composition. Finally the invention relates to use of caramel and one or more phenolic compounds to decrease the oxidation of vegetable oil.
