Claims15
A gelled comestible product having a gel melting point of from 0.degree. C. to 45.degree. C. comprising a gelling agent composition consisting essentially of xanthan and depolymerized guar.
A gelled comestible product having a gel melting point of from 0.degree. C. to 45.degree. C. comprising a gelling agent composition consisting essentially of xanthan and guar.
A method of making a gelled comestible product having a gel melting point of from 0.degree. to 45.degree. C. comprising disolving or dispersing a gelling composition consisting essentially of xanthan and guar in an aqueous fluid at an elevated temperature above the gel melting point, and then lowering the temperature of the resulting solution or dispersion to bring about the gelling thereof.
A method of making a gelled comestible product having a gel melting point of from 0.degree. to 45.degree.
