METHOD FOR REDUCING LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT SPECIES IN CARAMEL

摘要

The present invention provides a method for forming caramels having reduced low molecular weight species such as 4-MeI. The low-4-MeI caramels produced by this method have improved stability and taste relative to those known in the art. The invention also extends to the caramels produced by the disclosed methods and the use of such caramels in food and beverages.
