SHELF STABLE, HIGHLY AERATED REDUCED CALORIE FOOD PRODUCTS

摘要

The invention relates to a highly aerated fatty composition and food products made therefrom that are smooth and creamy, storage stable, and resistant to slump and collapse. The fatty composition comprises at least about 5% by weight fat substitute selected from sugar fatty acid esters and sugar alcohol fatty acid esters, where the sugars and sugar alcohols contain from 4 to 8 hydroxyl groups, and where each fatty acid group has from about 2 to about 24 carbon atoms. The fatty composition is aerated to contain from 5% to 75% by volume edible gas dispersed uniformly in the composition.
