CREAMY BASED PROCESSED DAIRY PRODUCT CONTAINING GELATINE

摘要

Processes and products are based on a creamy based component with ingredients selected from cream, artificial cream, thickened cream, cream cheese and mixtures thereof and mixtures with capable incidental ingredients. In one embodiment the ingredients are aerated to produce an overrun and intimately mixed with a hot, aqueous solution of gelatin under conditions which cause intimate distribution of the gelatin to obviate breakdown or collapse of the aerated base. One method then further comprises establishing elevated temperature conditions such as boiling conditions so that intimate distribution of a further food product into the base is achieved whereby upon cooling a product of good shelf life is produced. Embodiments also include reducing aeration in a final processing step e.g. by mechanical agitation, and hot filling of containers.
