Abstract
A flavored comestible spread consisting essentially of an oil-in-water dispersion of water; a partial glyceride ester composition containing about 38-48% diglyceride, monoglyceride in the ratio of about 1:5 to 1:1.5 based on the diglyceride content, and triglyceride in an amount less than the mono- and diglyceride contents combined, said partial glyceride having a Capillary Melting Point less than about 120.degree. F.; surface active cellulosic thickener; and at least a threshold proportion of flavorant and/or colorant.
Claims8
A flavored comestible spread consisting essentially of an oil-in-water dispersion of
- (a) water;
- (b) a partial glyceride ester composition containing about 38-48% diglyceride, monoglyceride present in the ratio monoglycerides to diglycerides of about 1:5 to 1:1.5 based on the diglyceride content, and triglyceride in an amount less than the mono- and diglyceride contents combined, said partial glyceride having a Capillary Melting Point less than about 120.degree. F.;
- (c) surface active cellulosic thickener;
- and
- (d) a flavoring proportion of flavorant;
- the weight proportions of (a), (b) and (c) being about 30-100:10:0.5-2, sufficient to produce a plastic consistency and Brookfield viscosity of at least about 100,000 cps through a temperature range of about 38.degree.-90.degree. F.
