An anhydrous fat-based discrete flavoring additive is provided for incorporation into baked goods. The discrete flavoring additive product comprises from substantially 0% to 2% by weight of moisture, from about 3% to about 30% by weight of a finely ground natural flavoring agent comprising coffee and optionally cocoa, from about 25% to about 35% by weight of a bakery-compatible oil that is substantially liquid at about 35 degrees C. to about 40 degrees C., with the balance being sugar. The bakery- compatible oil is selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils, cocoa butter, liquid butter fats etc., and mixtures thereof, which exhibit a solid fat index curve characteristic which is preferably similar to that of cocoa butter. The bakery-compatible oil or fat system has finely ground coffee, optionally cocoa or other optional flavoring agents, held in suspension. This suspension is mixed with sugar, and is then cooled to effect solidification. The product, when solidified, will remain substantially solidified at temperatures below about 35 degrees C., and particularly at room temperature of about 20 degrees C., and forms a discrete final product which can be used as a coffee or mocha-flavored additive in the production of bakery goods. |
