Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a foaming compound cream that is substantially free of phosphates and interesterified fats and oils, and to a whipped compound cream obtained by whipping the same. [Background technology]
[0002] Whipped cream is required to have a good melt-in-the-mouth texture and maintain a moderate hardness, while the whipping cream that is the raw material for whipped cream is required to have a good concentrate stability and whipping ability. Furthermore, whipped cream is often mixed with fresh cream to give it a rich, milky flavor or to improve whipping properties, resulting in whipped compound cream.
[0003] Conventionally, lauric fats have been widely used as raw material fats for whipping creams in terms of meltability in the mouth. However, creams containing a large amount of lauric fats have difficulty maintaining their firmness after whipping, and the price of lauric fats fluctuates greatly. Furthermore, the temperature range from the start to the end of melting is lower and narrower than that of milk fat. Therefore, when lauric fats are added to a compound cream containing fresh cream, the melting occurs in two stages, resulting in an unnatural melting sensation in the mouth.
[0004] In recent years, palm oil, which is inexpensive and has a stable supply, has been used as a substitute for lauric oil. However, when palm oil is blended in large amounts in an oil, coarse crystals are formed, which tends to deteriorate the stability of the concentrate, whipping properties, and hardness after whipping, and also to deteriorate the melt-in-the-mouth texture. To improve these issues, phosphates and interesterified oils have been blended into whipping creams. However, phosphates have a bitter taste and are undesirable for health, and interesterified oils have high production costs, reduce the richness of the flavor, and deteriorate the melt-in-the-mouth texture.
[0005] A whipped compound cream that is substantially free of phosphates and trans fatty acids and has good shape retention and melt-in-the-mouth properties after whipping has been disclosed (Patent Document 1). However, because this whipped compound cream is mainly made of palm-based oils and fats, its melt-in-the-mouth properties are inferior to those of whipped compound creams mainly made of lauric oils and fats, and its hardness after whipping is insufficient.

[Effects of the Invention]
[0010] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a foamable compound cream that is substantially free of phosphates and transesterified fats and oils, has a low content of lauric fats and oils, and a high content of palm fats, yet has good stock solution stability and whipping properties, and a whipped compound cream obtained by whipping the foamable compound cream that melts naturally and quickly in the mouth, has a good hardness, and has a strong milky flavor. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0011] The present invention will be described in further detail below. The whipping compound cream of the present invention is characterized by being substantially free of phosphates and interesterified fats and oils, containing a specific amount of fats and oils, containing a specific amount of a specific emulsifier A in the aqueous phase, and containing specific amounts of milk fat and two specific fats and oils (fat A and fat B). The whipped compound cream of the present invention can be obtained by whipping the whipping compound cream.
[0012] The less phosphate contained in the foaming compound cream, the better, preferably less than 0.02% by weight of the entire foaming compound cream, more preferably less than 0.01% by weight, and even more preferably no phosphate at all. Examples of the phosphate include sodium phosphate and sodium metaphosphate, and at least one selected from these groups can be used.
[0013] The foamable compound cream preferably contains 25 to 50% by weight of fats and oils based on the total weight of the foamable compound cream. It is more preferably 30 to 45% by weight, and even more preferably 35 to 40% by weight. If the content is less than 25% by weight, whipping properties and hardness after whipping may be poor, while if it is more than 50% by weight, the melt-in-the-mouth texture after whipping may become unnatural or the stability of the concentrate may be poor. The fats and oils include at least milk fat, fat A, and fat B.
[0014] The content of interesterified fats in the foaming compound cream is preferably less than 1% by weight, more preferably less than 0.5% by weight, and even more preferably no interesterified fats at all, based on the total amount of fats and oils contained in the foaming compound cream. If the content of interesterified fats is 1% by weight or more, the cost may increase and the hardness after whipping, the quickness and naturalness of melting in the mouth may be impaired.
[0015] In the present invention, interesterified fats and oils refer to fats and oils obtained by the interesterification of edible fats and oils. Examples of such edible fats and oils include vegetable fats such as rapeseed oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, coconut oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, and olive oil, and animal fats such as beef tallow, lard, and fish oil. These may also be processed by hardening, fractionation, interesterification, or other processes. The method for producing the interesterified fats and oils is not particularly limited, and they can be produced using conventional methods. For example, a chemical method in which 0.01 to 1.0 wt % of sodium methylate or sodium ethylate is added to the raw fat and oil to cause a random interesterification reaction, or an enzymatic method in which interesterification is carried out using an enzyme such as lipase, can be used.
[0016] The content of the milk fat is preferably 22.5% by weight or more and less than 47% by weight of the total fats and oils contained in the foamable compound cream. If the content is less than 22.5% by weight, the richness of the milk may not be fully felt, and if the content is 47% by weight or more, the whipping properties may be poor. Examples of the origin of the milk fat include fresh cream, buttermilk powder, butter, butter oil, cream cheese, raw milk, cow's milk, whole milk powder, concentrated milk, sour cream, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, etc., and at least one selected from these groups can be used as a raw material. From the viewpoint of flavor and hardness after whipping, it is preferable to use fresh cream as the origin of the milk fat.
[0017] The fresh cream is defined in the Milk and Dairy Products Ordinance as "a product obtained by removing components other than milk fat from raw milk, cow's milk, or special milk, resulting in a milk fat content of 18.0% or more." In the present invention, it is preferable to use cream with a milk fat content of 30 to 48% in order to obtain good whipping properties.
[0018] The oil A is C 12 It is preferable that the saturated fatty acid contained in the oil A is 40% by weight or more of the total constituent fatty acids. If it is less than 40% by weight, it may take a long time to melt in the mouth. 12 The content of the following saturated fatty acids may be 100% by weight or less of the total constituent fatty acids.
[0019] The fat / oil A preferably contains S2U in an amount of 0% by weight or more and less than 40% by weight, more preferably 0 to 20% by weight, and even more preferably 0 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the fat / oil A. If the amount is 40% by weight or more, the effects of the present invention may not be achieved. Here, S2U refers to a fatty acid that is present in one molecule of glycerin and contains, as a constituent fatty acid, C 16 or more (preferably C 24 (below) saturated fatty acid S 2 molecules, C 16 or more (preferably C 24 It refers to a triglyceride in which one molecule of unsaturated fatty acid U (hereinafter referred to as S) is bonded, and the bonding positions of S and U are not limited.
[0020] The slip melting point of the oil / fat A is preferably 23 to 30° C., more preferably 24 to 29° C., even more preferably 25 to 29° C., and particularly preferably 26 to 28° C. If it is lower than 23° C., the hardness after whipping may not be maintained, and if it is higher than 30° C., the stability of the concentrate and whipping properties may be deteriorated, or melting in the mouth may be delayed.
[0021] The type of the oil / fat A includes lauric oils and fats, and specific examples thereof include coconut oil (slope melting point: 24±1°C), palm kernel oil (slope melting point: 27±1°C), and palm kernel olein (slope melting point: 23±1°C), and at least one selected from these groups can be used. In addition, when the oil / fat A is a mixed oil / fat obtained by blending multiple types of oils and fats, the C contained in the entire mixed oil / fat can be used.12 It is sufficient that the saturated fatty acid content and S2U content below fall within the above ranges, and the average value of the slip melting points of the multiple types of oils and fats falls within the above ranges.
[0022] The fat B is C 16 ~C 22 It is preferable that the saturated fatty acid of C contained in the constituent fatty acids of the oil / fat B is 40% by weight or more of the total constituent fatty acids. If it is less than 40% by weight, it may take a long time to melt in the mouth. 16 ~C 22 The saturated fatty acid content of the fatty acids may be 100% by weight or less of the total fatty acids constituting the fatty acids.
[0023] The fat / oil B preferably contains 45 to 70% by weight, more preferably 50 to 60% by weight, of S2U based on the total amount of fat / oil B. If the amount is less than 45% by weight, whipping properties and hardness after whipping may be deteriorated, whereas if the amount is more than 70% by weight, hardness after whipping may be deteriorated or melting in the mouth may be delayed. Here, S2U refers to a compound in which one molecule of glycerin contains, as a constituent fatty acid, C 16 or more (preferably C 24 (below) saturated fatty acid S 2 molecules, C 16 or more (preferably C 24 It refers to a triglyceride in which one molecule of unsaturated fatty acid U (hereinafter referred to as S) is bonded, and the bonding positions of S and U are not limited.
[0024] The slip melting point of the fat or oil B is preferably 23 to 30° C., more preferably 24 to 29° C., even more preferably 25 to 29° C., and particularly preferably 26 to 28° C. If it is lower than 23° C., the firmness after whipping may not be maintained, and if it is higher than 30° C., the firmness after whipping may decrease or the melting in the mouth may be delayed.
[0025] The type of the fat / oil B includes palm-based fats and oils, and specific examples thereof include palm oil (slope melting point: 33±1°C), palm mid-melting point (slope melting point: 27±1°C), palm olein (slope melting point: 22±1°C), etc. At least one selected from these groups can be used. In addition, when the fat / oil B is a mixed fat / oil blended with a plurality of types of fats and oils, the C content of the mixed fat / oil as a whole can be used. 16 ~C 22 It is sufficient that the saturated fatty acid content and S2U content of the plurality of types of fats and oils fall within the above-mentioned ranges, and the average value of the slip melting points of the plurality of types of fats and oils falls within the above-mentioned range of slip melting points.
[0026] The slip melting points of the fats and oils A and B may be measured using an automatic slip melting point measuring device in accordance with the Standard Methods for Analysis of Fats and Oils of the Japan Oil Chemists' Society.
[0027] Of the fats and oils contained in the foamable compound cream, the total content of fats and oils A and B in all fats and oils excluding the milk fat is preferably 80 to 100% by weight, more preferably 83 to 100% by weight, even more preferably 88 to 100% by weight, and particularly preferably 95 to 100% by weight. If the total content is less than 80% by weight, the melting in the mouth may be slow.
[0028] The weight ratio of the fat B to the fat A plus the fat B is preferably 0.45 to 0.82, more preferably 0.5 to 0.80, even more preferably 0.5 to 0.78, and particularly preferably 0.5 to 0.75. If the ratio is less than 0.45, the stability of the concentrate, the hardness after whipping, and the natural melt-in-the-mouth feel may be impaired, whereas if the ratio is more than 0.82, the stability of the concentrate, the whipping properties, and the hardness after whipping may be impaired, the melt-in-the-mouth feel may be delayed, and the natural melt-in-the-mouth feel may be impaired.
[0029] The fats and oils in the foaming compound cream of the present invention may further contain other fats and oils as needed, in addition to the milk fat, fat A, and fat B, as long as the contents of these fats and oils are sufficient and the effects of the present invention are not impaired. Examples of other fats and oils include rapeseed oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, olive oil, rice bran oil, beef tallow, lard, and fish oil.
[0030] The foamable compound cream preferably contains 40 to 70% by weight of water, more preferably 45 to 70% by weight, even more preferably 50 to 70% by weight, and particularly preferably 55 to 70% by weight. If the water content is less than 40% by weight, the whipping may lack freshness and the stock solution may be unstable, while if the water content is more than 70% by weight, the whipping properties and hardness after whipping may be poor and the richness of the oil may be difficult to sense.
[0031] The weight ratio of the oil / water content to the water content (oil / water) is preferably 0.4 to 1.2, and more preferably 0.5 to 1.0. If it is less than 0.4, foaming properties may deteriorate, and if it is more than 1.2, the stability of the concentrate may deteriorate or oil-in-water emulsion may not be obtained.
[0032] The emulsifier A preferably has an HLB of 2.8 to 6.2, more preferably 3.5 to 5.5. If the HLB is lower than 2.8, the stability of the concentrate, whipping properties, and hardness after whipping may deteriorate, while if it is higher than 6.2, the whipping properties and hardness after whipping may deteriorate.
[0033] The emulsifier A is C 10 ~C 22 It is preferable that the saturated fatty acid ester is a sucrose fatty acid ester and / or a polyglycerin fatty acid ester containing 70 to 100% by weight of the saturated fatty acids of the above-mentioned formula C in the total amount of the constituent fatty acids. 10 ~C 22 If the total amount of saturated fatty acids is less than 70% by weight, the hardness after whipping may decrease and an unpleasant taste specific to emulsifiers may appear.
[0034] The emulsifier A is contained in the aqueous phase of the foaming compound cream. If emulsifier A is contained in the oil phase but not in the aqueous phase, whipping properties and post-whipping hardness may deteriorate. The content of emulsifier A in the aqueous phase is preferably 0.05 to 0.55 wt % of the total foaming compound cream, more preferably 0.06 to 0.52 wt %, even more preferably 0.08 to 0.3 wt %, and particularly preferably 0.10 to 0.2 wt %. If the content is less than 0.05 wt %, whipping properties and post-whipping hardness may deteriorate, or the richness of the milk may be insufficient, while if it is more than 0.55 wt %, post-whipping hardness may deteriorate.
[0035] In addition to emulsifier A, if necessary, an emulsifier with an HLB value of less than 6.0 may be blended in the oil phase, or an emulsifier with an HLB value of 6.0 or more may be blended in the aqueous phase.
[0036] However, since emulsifiers with bound unsaturated fatty acids may produce an unpleasant taste, from the viewpoint of improving the flavor, the content of emulsifiers with bound unsaturated fatty acids is preferably as low as possible, and is preferably less than 0.02% by weight of the total foaming compound cream.
[0037] The foaming compound cream of the present invention may contain thickeners, sugars, milk solids, flavoring agents, coloring agents, fragrances, salt, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, other food ingredients, additives, etc., as needed, within the range that does not impair the effects of the present invention.
[0038] The whipping compound cream is whipped to obtain whipped compound cream. The whipped compound cream obtained can be used as a topping, a filling, or a sandwich for various foods. Examples of such foods include breads such as cream buns, cream sandwiches, and sandwiches, as well as cakes, choux pastries, omelets, and dorayaki.
[0039] The method for producing the foaming compound cream of the present invention is exemplified below: First, emulsifier A is added to water so that the content of emulsifier A in the entire foaming compound cream is 0.05 to 0.55% by weight, and the mixture is heated to 60°C or higher with stirring to dissolve, thereby preparing an aqueous phase in which the phosphate content in the entire foaming compound cream is adjusted to less than 0.02% by weight and the water content is adjusted to 40 to 70% by weight.
[0040] Next, fats A and B are mixed so that the total content of fats A and B in the total fats is 42.4 to 77.5 wt % and the weight ratio of fats B / (fat A + fats B) is 0.45 to 0.82, and other fats are also mixed as necessary. This fat mixture is adjusted so that the fat content in the total foamable compound cream is 25 to 50 wt % and the transesterified fat content in the total fats is less than 1 wt %, and is added to the aqueous phase. After pre-emulsification, the mixture is pulverized and further treated at high pressure to produce an oil-in-water emulsified fat composition.
[0041] The foamable compound cream of the present invention can be obtained by mixing and stirring the oil-in-water emulsified oil composition with a milk fat-containing component such as fresh cream so that the milk fat content in the entire oil is 22.5% by weight or more and less than 47% by weight.
[0042] In addition, the milk fat-containing component such as the fresh cream can be mixed with other ingredients as a raw material for the aqueous phase, and the oil / fat mixture can be added thereto, followed by pre-emulsification, pulverization, and further high-pressure treatment to obtain the foamable compound cream.
