The sugar-free low-calorie base that is used for hard candy
Invention field
The present invention relates to be applicable to the sugar-free low-calorie base of stable sugar-free hard candy, described base-material contains a kind of glucan and a kind of sugar alcohol composition, glucan does not have monose and disaccharide in fact, does not more preferably have the glycosyl of reproducibility in fact, and described sugar alcohol composition mainly contains mannitol.The present invention also relates to stablize the hard candy of sugar-free, this hard candy can also optionally contain known additives and/or batching (as flavouring) in one or more other sugar-free candy technologies except that the water that contains described base-material and remnants (from candy processing).The invention still further relates to and be specially adapted to produce above-mentioned hard candy syrup.
Background of invention
Be meant to have 30% the calorie value based on the product of sucrose of being less than or equal to weight such as being equivalent to according to " low in calories " that the present invention understood.In other words, the calorie value of sucrose is 4 a kilocalories/gram, and therefore, the calorie value of " low in calories " of the present invention base-material, syrup and candy must be less than or equal to 1.2 kilocalories/gram (solid).
According to " stable " product that the present invention understood is a kind of have acceptable low cold flow, low product that obtains feature with low wash water of separating out.Unacceptable cold flow can make product at packing or storage process mesometamorphism; Unacceptablely separate out that can to make product be a kind of state of streaky or crystallization from a kind of state-transition of clarification in storage process; The other factors that unacceptable water yield acquisition can influence cold flow and separate out and relate to the product globality, as adhere on the packing.Acceptable stability changes according to type, packing and final use etc. such as product; But the whole notion of these factors and stability is that the those skilled in the art of correlative technology field are in common knowledge.
Sugar-free or low sugar hard candy are known in this technology as hard candy and hard medicine lozenge.These products prepare as base-material with the combination of following ingredients or composition typically: the starch hydrolysate of hydrogenation (" HSH "); D-sorbite; The lactitol that combines with HSH; Hydroxyl isomaltulose; With the glucan of some type, it contains monose and the disaccharide that combines with selected composition such as HSH or sugar alcohol.Described medicine lozenge also contains selected therapeutic agent/activating agent.For example, see USP5629042, EP-A-0377278, EP-A-0455600, WO92/02149 and JP-A-07/67536, all lists of references are in these whole introducings.
Above-mentioned most base-materials can make product show different shortcomings at aspects such as stability, production difficulty and/or outward appearances.In addition, these base-materials do not resemble yet mark sufficient lower calorific value is provided.
For example, have the cold flow feature with HSH usually as the hard candy that base-material prepares, this feature can make product at packing or storage process mesometamorphism.These products need more expensive packing substitute usually, have low storage life and poor product quality, and consumer's degree of recognition is low.The calorie value of HSH base-material is 3 a kilocalories/gram or higher in addition.
Generally has the characteristic of the crystallization of separating out with D-sorbite as the hard candy that base-material prepares, this characteristic can cause becoming the fine crystallization state from unbodied vitreousness, thereby has reduced storage life, produces relatively poor mouthfeel, reduced sense of taste quality, the consumer can not accept.In addition, the calorie value of D-sorbite base-material is about 2.6 a kilocalories/gram or higher.
In the storage process of being everlasting, show as the hard candy of base-material preparation with the combination of HSH and lactitol and to separate out crystallization.This product has relatively short storage life usually and lacks consumer's approval.In addition, the calorie value of HSH/ lactitol base-material is about 2.5 a kilocalories/gram or higher.
Separate out the tendency of crystallization with hydroxyl isomaltulose as hard candy performance in the storage process that continues of base-material preparation.And the product material that boils heat shows significant low viscosity.This low viscosity requires to prolong the production time usually to allow the product material cool down before adding flavor enhancement, colouring agent or active component.The calorie value of hydroxyl isomaltulose base-material is about 2.0 a kilocalories/gram or higher.
With certain type combination of glucan and selected sugar alcohol as the easy moisture absorption of hard candy of base-material preparation and show the cold flow tendency.Usually, in the process of processing under higher beta-dextran content and high temperature, the high viscosity of the product material of this infusion makes sneaking into of flavor enhancement, colouring agent or active component become difficult.In addition, undesired air bubble is entrained into product.And, because the monose that exists and disaccharide and because to the restriction of total sugar content set quota and labeling requirement, the Cmax of glucan often is restricted in boiled products in certain type the glucan.The calorie value of typical glucan/sugar alcohol base-material is about 1.5 a kilocalories/gram or higher.
General because glucan has some superiority, wish very much to be mixed with sugar-free, stable hard candy with the Low Caloric Polydextrose base-material.
