Low calorie fat compositions

摘要

By this invention, low calorie fat compositions comprising the use of acylated glycerides are provided. Of particular interest is the use of triglyceride compositions having a at least one acylated fatty acid. Preferably, the acylated fatty acid has a melting temperature above 40° C. The acylated glyceride compositions find use as low calorie fat ingredients in food compositions. The low calorie fat compositions of the present invention demonstrate a caloric value of less than 6.5 kcal/g. Such low calorie fat compositions find use in the preparation of food compositions wherein at least a portion of the fat ingredients have been replaced with a acylated glyceride compositions of the present invention.
