Gelatin-free frozen confections

摘要

A high quality, gelatin-free frozen confection which is ready-to-eat at freezer temperatures is disclosed. The frozen confection maintains its shape on a stick during normal consumption, exhibits excellent storage stability, and delivers a refreshing, texturally-pleasing eating experience. The elimination of gelatin from previous frozen confection formulations has been found in the invention to improve upon the heavy-bodied texture of past formulations, and to enable a reduction in the total hydrocolloid level required to fully bind the water in the frozen confection.
