<p>This invention relates to cream-style soup which can be rendered drinkable by microwave heating from a frozen state without recourse to stirring. The soup comprises an aqueous phase substantially uniformly dispersing a starch system and an oleaginous system, the aqueous phase containing at least one dissolved freezing point depressant to provide some free water substantially uniformly dispersed throughout the product. The oleaginous system includes at least one fat in the form of particles of sizes less than 10 microns and the starch system comprises at least one starch in a partially gelatinised state and at least one humectant to act as a water activity depressant.</p> |
