Claims24
A food product comprising an aqueous based non-sweet binder composition, the binder composition comprising soluble fiber, protein, and fat, and being essentially free of added high calorie sweetener,
- wherein, the binder composition has a first viscosity at a first temperature effective for being mixed with the food product components and, the binder composition has a second viscosity at a second temperature effective for binding the food product components.
A method of preparing a food product comprising an aqueous based non-sweet binder composition comprising soluble fiber, protein, fat, and being essentially free of added high calorie sweetener, the method comprising:
- heating a binder composition to a first temperature such that the binder composition has a first viscosity effective for being mixed with the food product components;
- mixing the heated binder composition with the food product components to form a mixture of binder composition and aggregated food product components;
- and
- cooling the mixture to a second temperature such that the binder composition has a second viscosity effective to bind the aggregated food product components.
