Film-like lozenge and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses film-like lozenge. The lozenge is characterized by consisting of the following components in percentage by weight: 16 to 30 percent of pullulan gum, 60 to 75 percent of modified starch, 2.5 to 4.9 percent of sodium alginate, 3 to 5 percent of glycerol and 0.5 to 1 percent of menthol. Meanwhile, the invention also discloses a manufacturing method of the film-like lozenge. The film-like lozenge prepared by adopting the components safe and beneficial to human bodies is long in quality guarantee period, difficult to oxidize and damp and convenient to store and transport.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of food production, in particular to a lozenge with long shelf life and a special method for making the lozenge. Background technique [0002] Mouth and throat are important passages for all nutrients and food to enter the human body. Due to physical and chemical stimuli such as air, food, tobacco, and alcohol, problems in the mouth and throat are relatively common. Menthol or peppermint oil is extracted from mint, a plant of the Labiatae family. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-itching, swelling and pain-relieving effects.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Most of the existing candies are in the form of larger granules, which is inconvenient in terms of packaging, carrying, and storage. At the same time, due to the large size of the individual, it takes a long time to finish eating the candies. It is inconvenient to achieve the effect of cooling and refreshing the throat and mouth, and fresh and pleasant breath within a certain period of time.

Therefore, the article with this effect needs to be made into film-like lozenges. However, because this type of product contains ingredients such as sugar, its shelf life is short, and it is easy to be wet and oxidized, which affects the appearance of the product and is also easy to deteriorate. adverse effects on human health

In order to prolong the shelf life and enable the product to be stored for a long time, some plasticizers are added during production to enhance the plasticizing effect of the product and prolong the shelf life. Although its dosage is very small, long-term consumption will cause serious damage to human health. In the near future On the issue of food safety, the hazards of plasticizers are also often reported in the newspapers
