VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG EINES ESSBAREN PRODUKTS MIT FRÜCHTEN, MEHRFACH UNGESÄTTIGTEN OMEGA-3-FETTSÄUREN UND EISEN

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing microbiologically stable edible products containing fruit a source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 PUFA) such as fish-oil, and a source of iron, which method allows for these products to be easily manufactured and wherein the obtained product does not develop an objectionable off-flavour when stored in a refrigerator for up to several weeks. According to the invention this objective can be realised by employing a manufacturing process in which a source of omega-3 PUFA is pre-mixed with a fruit component, following which this pre-mix is added to a previously pasteurised or sterilised protein base (e.g. yogurt or milk) containing iron.
