摘要:
The present disclosure relates to a free-flowing composition having controllable properties of bulk density, particle morphology, flowability and shakeability suitable, for example, for use on or in a foodstuff or a beverage. The composition includes a blend of: (i) a plurality of substantially discrete composite particles, each composite particle comprising a core of a first edible material provided with a discontinuous surface coating formed from a first plurality of non-uniformly sized particles of a second edible material and (ii) a second plurality of non-uniformly sized particles of said second edible material. A foodstuff comprising the composition is claimed and so are methods of employing it. The application also claims a method of preparing thee composition, said method comprising the steps of: (a) combining the first edible material, provided in dry particulate form, with the second edible material, provided in dry particulate form and (b) heating said combination to a forming temperature (Tf ), which is at least equal to the glass transition temperature or softening temperature of the first edible material, with concurrent mixing thereof, so as to coat particles of the first edible material with a first plurality of non-uniformly sized particles of the second edible material, thereby forming composite particles of said composition, and leaving a second plurality of non-uniformly sized particles of the second edible material remaining which are intermingled with said composite particles.La présente invention concerne une composition à écoulement libre ayant des propriétés pouvant être régulées de masse volumique, de morphologie des particules, daptitude à sécouler et à être agitée appropriées, par exemple, pour une utilisation dans un produit alimentaire ou une boisson. La composition comprend un mélange : (i) dune pluralité de particules composites sensiblement distinctes, chaque particule composite comprenant un noyau dun premier matériau comestible dot
