<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a food ingredient or entire food product containing fat or oil, and flavor capsules dispersed with the fat or oil. <P>SOLUTION: The flavor capsule comprises a microorganism, a surrounding matrix component and at least one flavor which is mainly present in the microorganism. The food or food ingredient may be used as such, or be used as coatings or fillings of ordinary food products. The fat or oil-based food ingredient has increased flavor intensity compared with similar food ingredients in which the flavor is not encapsulated. The flavors are immediately released upon intake of the food or food ingredient. Owing to the particular encapsulation of flavors, the food ingredient is sufficiently resistant to flavor evaporation caused by elevated temperatures during food manufacturing processes. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
