Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a food or drink, and more particularly to a food or drink containing a sweetener, which has an improved sweetness quality. [Background technology]

[0002] Sweetness is an important factor in the taste of food and beverages, and many consumers prefer foods and beverages with a good sweetness. Generally, sugars such as sucrose are added to foods and beverages to impart sweetness. Sucrose is highly useful in foods and beverages because it imparts a desirable sweetness. However, sucrose is high in calories, and excessive intake of sucrose has been linked to obesity, diabetes, and other adult diseases, which have been implicated as health risks.

[0003] As the need for low-calorie foods and beverages increases, high-intensity sweeteners are being used in foods and beverages to meet this need. High-intensity sweeteners have a much higher sweetness than sucrose, so they can impart sweetness to foods and beverages with smaller amounts than sucrose. Taking advantage of this property, many foods and beverages containing high-intensity sweeteners have been developed and are sold on the market.

[0004] However, it is known that foods and beverages using high-intensity sweeteners have a distinctive off-flavor that is different from that of sucrose, such as unpleasant bitter or astringent tastes, and have a worse aftertaste than foods and beverages containing sucrose. For this reason, technological developments have been conducted to improve the quality of sweetness while still using high-intensity sweeteners (Patent Documents 1 and 2).

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-345810 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-235496 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] As described above, there is a demand for a reduction in the amount of sucrose used in foods and beverages, and high-intensity sweeteners are used as substitutes, but the quality of the sweetness of high-intensity sweeteners cannot be said to be better than that of sucrose. Several techniques for improving the quality of the sweetness of high-intensity sweeteners have been reported, but not all of them necessarily provide a fully satisfactory sweetness. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to improve the quality of sweetness in foods and beverages containing sweeteners. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] As a result of intensive research to solve the above problems, the present inventors have found that the sweetness quality of a food or drink containing a sweetener can be improved by blending dihydrochalcones and minerals and adjusting the contents of these components within a predetermined range. Based on this finding, the present inventors have completed the present invention.

[Effects of the Invention]

[0009] The present invention can improve the quality of sweetness in foods and beverages containing sweeteners. In particular, when sucrose is used as a sweetener, not only can the intensity of the sucrose sweetness be increased, but the overall quality of the sucrose-based sweetness, including factors other than intensity, can be improved. Furthermore, when a sweetener other than sucrose, such as a high-intensity sweetener, is used, an excellent sucrose-like sweetness can be imparted to the foods and beverages. By utilizing the technology of the present invention, it is possible to provide foods and beverages in which the amount of sucrose used is reduced (so-called reduced-sugar foods and beverages), yet still have a sufficient sucrose sweetness. Furthermore, the technology of the present invention can provide foods and beverages that contain a high-intensity sweetener, yet still have a sucrose-like sweetness.

[0014] The form of minerals is not particularly limited as long as they are contained in the food and drink of the present invention in an ingestible state, but for example, they may be in the form of salts, and the minerals in the food and drink of the present invention may be derived from salts. Examples of mineral salts include, but are not limited to, chlorides, hydroxides, citrates, malates, lactates, tartrates, ascorbates, carbonates, bicarbonates, sulfates, alginates, gluconates, glutamates, and aspartates. In the present invention, the mineral salt is preferably gluconate. Preferably, the minerals are derived from gluconates.

[0015] When minerals are in the form of salts in the food and beverage of the present invention, the content is calculated by converting them into free forms. The above content refers to the content of each mineral, not the total content of multiple minerals. The mineral content in the food and beverage of the present invention can be measured using atomic absorption spectrometry.

[0016] (sweetener) The food and drink of the present invention contains a sweetener. The sweetener may be either a low-intensity sweetener or a high-intensity sweetener, or may contain both a low-intensity sweetener and a high-intensity sweetener. Here, a low-intensity sweetener refers to a compound having a sweetness equivalent to that of sucrose (specifically, less than 5 times, for example, 0.1 to 5 times). A high-intensity sweetener refers to a compound having a sweetness stronger than that of sucrose (specifically, a compound having a sweetness 5 times or more that of sucrose).

[0020] The content of the sweetener in the food or drink of the present invention can be appropriately set depending on the type of sweetener. Although not particularly limited, when the food or drink of the present invention is a beverage, the sweetener can be blended so that the sweetness of the beverage is 12.5 or less. Here, the sweetness is an index of the sweetness of a beverage, with the sweetness of a beverage containing 1g of sucrose per 100g of beverage being set at "1". The sweetness of a beverage is calculated by converting the content of each sweet component into an equivalent amount of sucrose based on the relative ratio of the sweetness of that component to the sweetness of sucrose (1), and then adding up the sucrose-equivalent amounts of all sweet components contained in the beverage (including sweet components derived from fruit juices, extracts, etc.). The sweetness of a sweet component can be determined by the sweetness level provided by the manufacturer that produces or sells that component, or by sensory evaluation.

[0021] When the food or drink of the present invention is a beverage, the sweetness of the beverage is, for example, 0.5 or more, 1 or more, 1.5 or more, or 2 or more, preferably 2.5 or more, 3 or more, 3.5 or more, or 4 or more, and more preferably 4.5 or more. The sweetness is, for example, 12.5 or less, 12 or less, 11.5 or less, or 11 or less, preferably 10.5 or less, 10 or less, or 9.5 or less, and more preferably 9 or less.

[0022] Furthermore, when the food or drink of the present invention is a beverage, the sweetness of the beverage may be, for example, 0.5 to 1, 0.5 to 1.5, 0.5 to 2, 0.5 to 2.5, 0.5 to 3, 0.5 to 3.5, 0.5 to 4, 0.5 to 4.5, 0.5 to 5, 0.5 to 5.5, 0.5 to 6, 0.5 to 6.5, 0.5 to 7, 0.5 to 7.5, 0.5 to 8, 0.5 to 8.5, 0.5 to 9, 0.5 to 9.5, 0.5 to 10, 0.5 to 10.5, 0.5 to 11, 0.5 to 11.5, 0.5 to 12, 0.5 to 12.5, 1 to 1.5, 1 to 2, 1 to 2.5, 1 to 3, 1 to 3.5, 1 to 4, 1 to 4.5, 1 to 5, 1 to 5.5, 1-6, 1-6.5, 1-7, 1-7.5, 1-8, 1-8.5, 1-9, 1-9.5, 1-10, 1-10.5, 1-11, 1-11.5, 1-12, 1-12.5, 1.5-2, 1.5-2.5, 1.5-3, 1.5-3.5, 1.5-4, 1.5-4.5, 1. 5~5, 1.5~5.5, 1.5~6, 1.5~6.5, 1.5~7, 1.5~7.5, 1.5~8, 1.5~8.5, 1.5~9, 1.5~9.5, 1.5~10, 1.5~10.5, 1.5~11, 1.5~11.5, 1.5~12, 1.5~12.5, 2~2.5, 2~3 , 2~3.5, 2~4, 2~4.5, 2~5, 2~5.5, 2~6, 2~6.5, 2~7, 2~7.5, 2~8, 2~8.5, 2~9, 2~9.5, 2~10, 2~10.5, 2~11, 2~11.5, 2~12, 2~12.5, 2.5~3, 2.5~3.5, 2.5~4, 2 0.5~4.5, 2.5~5, 2.5~5.5, 2.5~6, 2.5~6.5, 2.5~7, 2.5~7.5, 2.5~8, 2.5~8.5, 2.5~9, 2.5~9.5, 2.5~10, 2.5~10.5, 2.5~11, 2.5~11.5, 2.5~12, 2.5~12.5 , 3~3.5, 3~4, 3~4.5, 3~5, 3~5.5, 3~6, ​​3~6.5, 3~7, 3~7.5, 3~8, 3~8.5, 3~9, 3~9.5, 3~10, 3~10.5, 3~11, 3~11.5, 3~12, 3~12.5, 3.5~4, 3.5~4.5, 3.5~5, 3 .5~5.5, 3.5~6, 3.5~6.5, 3.5~7, 3.5~7.5, 3.5~8, 3.5~8.5, 3.5~9, 3.5~9.5, 3.5~10, 3.5~10.5, 3.5~11, 3.5~11.5, 3.5~12, 3.5~12.5, 4~4.5, 4~5, 4~5.5、4~6、4~6.5、4~7、4~7.5、4~8、4~8.5、4~9、4~9.5、4~10、4~10.5、4~11、4~11.5、4~12、4~12.5、4.5~5、4.5~5.5、4.5~6、4.5~6.5、4.5~7、4.5~7.5、4.5~8、4.5~8.5、4.5~9、4.5~9.5、4.5~10、4.5~10.5、4.5~11、4.5~11.5、4.5~12、4.5~12.5、5~5.5、5~6、5~6.5、5~7、5~7.5、5~8、5~8.5、5~9、5~9.5、5~10、5~10.5、5~11、5~11.5、5~12、5~12.5、5.5~6、5.5~6.5、5.5~7、5.5~7.5、5.5~8、5.5~8.5、5.5~9、5.5~9.5、5.5~10、5.5~10.5、5.5~11、5.5~11.5、5.5~12、5.5~12.5、6~6.5、6~7、6~7.5、6~8、6~8.5、6~9、6~9.5、6~10、6~10.5、6~11、6~11.5、6~1. 2, 6~12.5, 6.5~7, 6.5~7.5, 6.5~8, 6.5~8.5, 6.5~9, 6.5~9.5, 6.5~10, 6.5~10.5, 6.5~11, 6.5~11.5, 6.5~12, 6.5~12.5, 7~7.5, 7~8, 7~8.5, 7~9, 7~9.5, 7~10, 7~10.5, 7~11 , 7~11.5, 7~12, 7~12.5, 7.5~8, 7.5~8.5, 7.5~9, 7.5~9.5, 7.5~10, 7.5~10.5, 7.5~11, 7.5~11.5, 7.5~12, 7.5~12.5, 8~8.5, 8~9, 8~9.5, 8~10, 8~10.5, 8~11, 8~11.5, 8~12, 8 ~12.5, 8.5~9, 8.5~9.5, 8.5~10, 8.5~10.5, 8.5~11, 8.5~11.5, 8.5~12, 8.5~12.5, 9~9.5, 9~10, 9~10.5, 9~11, 9~11.5, 9~12, 9~12.5, 9.5~10, 9.5~10.5, 9.5~11, 9.5~11.5 , 9.5 to 12, 9.5 to 12.5, 10 to 10.5, 10 to 11, 10 to 11.5, 10 to 12, 10 to 12.5, 10.5 to 11, 10.5 to 11.5, 10.5 to 12, 10.5 to 12.5, 11 to 11.5, 11 to 12, 11 to 12.5, 11.5 to 12, 11.5 to 12.5, or 12 to 12.5.
