Problems solved by technology

However, the air pool is usually large and the inflation is not easy to control
If the chocolate is above its melting temperature, the chocolate foam is unstable, and therefore coating, dipping and rolling, which are normally used for chocolate applications, cannot be applied to chocolate foam prepared by this method

Embodiment 1 and 2

[0057] At 65° C., sucrose stearate (available from Ryoto S370 (70% sucrose stearate; melting temperature 51° C., and HLB=3) of Tokyo Mitsubishi Chemical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) was mixed with 50 g of chocolate (by Barry Dark chocolate supplied by Callebaut (UK) Ltd) was mixed well to make a slurry which was then diluted with other chocolate up to a total weight of 500 g. The concentration of Ryoto S370 in the mixture was 1.5% or 3% by weight. The mixture was stirred for one hour at 65°C and then aerated using a Kenwood KMX50 mixer at maximum speed (speed 7) for 5 minutes at a temperature of 65°C. The aerated mixtures were then cooled to room temperature and their expansion rates were measured at room temperature before and after rethawing. It was observed that the overrun was maintained after rethawing. The results are summarized in Table 1.

Embodiment 3-10

[0062] At the temperatures shown in Table 2, sucrose stearate (Ryoto S270 (melting temperature 52°C; and HLB=2), S570 (melting temperature 50°C; and HLB=5), all available from Tokyo, Japan, was used Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation), 500 g of each example was prepared and gassed as described above. The aerated mixtures were cooled to room temperature and their expansion rates were measured at room temperature before and after rethawing. The results are summarized in Table 2.

[0063] The results show that using various emulsifiers with an HLB value of 1-9, a chocolate foam composition with a satisfactory overrun can be obtained. Also, the expansion rate after remelting is the same as before remelting, so the expansion rate is very stable after remelting.

Embodiment 11

[0069] A further example (Example 11) comprising 3% by weight of Ryoto S370 (sucrose stearate) was prepared as above but at a temperature of 55°C. The aerated mixture was cooled to room temperature and its expansion rate was measured. The results are given in Table 3 and show that using Ryoto S370 it is possible to obtain chocolate foam compositions with satisfactory overrun at various aeration temperatures.

Abstract

This invention relates to aerated chocolate composition having an overrun of between 40% and 200%, preferably greater than 50%, more preferably greater than 60% wherein the aerated chocolate composition contains 1-10%, more preferably 1 -5% w / w, of at least one sucrose ester having an HLB value of below 9.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the Chinese patent application 201180047418.2 filed on September 1, 2011, with the title of invention "Aerated Chocolate Composition and Its Preparation". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to aerated chocolate compositions and their preparation, especially stable chocolate foam compositions and their preparation. Background technique [0003] Pleasant taste and fine texture are two main characteristics of chocolate. Chocolate must be solid at room temperature, yet melt quickly in the mouth at 37°C to give a smooth mouthfeel. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate are the three main flavors. [0004] In the food industry, chocolate is commonly used as a coating. The inventors have investigated ways to reduce the calorific value of chocolate without compromising the sensory experience provided by the chocolate coating. [0005] Aerated or foamed chocolate is a well known product in the ...
