Definitions

  • the present invention relates to chocolate compositions and products that contain ethylcellulose.
  • One technical problem addressed by the present invention is the provision of heat-resistant chocolate. That is to say, chocolate that can retain its shape at higher temperatures, for example temperatures above about 30° C. or even above 40° C.
  • the provision of such a heat-resistant chocolate that also achieves good mouthfeel and taste properties would greatly simplify the distribution and consumption of chocolate in hot countries.
  • Ordinary chocolate is composed primarily of fats or fatty substances, such as cocoa butter, in which there are dispersed non-fat products such as cocoa components, sugars, proteins, etc. Therefore, since chocolate is primarily constituted by fat bodies, its melting temperature is relatively low. This means that ordinary chocolate is not particularly resistant to summer temperatures or the heat of tropical countries. Therefore, a need exists for a chocolate which is resistant to relatively high ambient temperatures.
  • US2008/0248186 describes heat-resistant chocolate made with an interesterified cocoa butter having higher melting properties than unmodified cocoa butter. However, this procedure is expensive, and can result in chocolate having an undesirable taste and/or texture.
  • CH-A-410607 concerns a chocolate composition which contains hydrophilic substances such as dextrose, maltose, inverted sugar, etc.
  • hydrophilic substances such as dextrose, maltose, inverted sugar, etc.
  • CH-A-399891 and CH-A-489211 are directed to a method of incorporating amorphous sugars into a chocolate composition during manufacture.
  • the sugars cause the formation in the mass of a lattice structure which prevents collapse of the mass when the temperature exceeds the melting point of the fat bodies used in its preparation.
  • CH-A-409603 involves the direct incorporation of water into a chocolate composition during its manufacture.
  • the water however, which is about 5% relative to the composition, causes a rapid thickening of the mass at temperatures where normally the mass is still a liquid.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 2,760,867 involves the incorporation of water into chocolate by the addition of an emulsifier such as lecithin.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,081,559 concerns the addition to chocolate of an amount of sugar such that when the quantity of water required to obtain heat-resistant chocolate is added, there is formed an aqueous sugar solution in which at least one edible fat of the chocolate is emulsified.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,446,116 is directed to a composition used in the preparation of a heat-resistant chocolate.
  • the water-in-fat emulsion prepared in accordance with the teachings of this patent results in a product containing at least 20% of the fat in solid form, and the water-in-fat mixture used in accordance with this patent does not remain in liquid form during processing. Presence of such solid bodies results in an undesired rough texture or mouth feel.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,149,560 describes a heat-resistant or thermally robust chocolate and method for making same by adding moisture to chocolate through use of lipid microstructure technology such as reverse micelle technology to form a stable water-in-oil emulsion, for example, hydrated lecithin.
  • lipid microstructure technology such as reverse micelle technology
  • the stable water-in-oil emulsion is added to tempered chocolate during processing, and upon aging and stabilization, thermal robustness develops in the chocolate product.
  • Further heat-resistant chocolate comprising water-in-oil microemulsions is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,486,376.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,010,735 describes a heat-resistant chocolate made by incorporating water in the form of a dispersion of an aqueous gel, wherein the gelling agent is an edible carbohydrate or a pectin.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,664,927 describes a heat-resistant chocolate made by adding a polyol, such as glycerol or sorbitol, to chocolate.
  • CH-A-519858 involves incorporating fat bodies into a chocolate composition in an encapsulated state to improve heat resistance.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,081,559 describes a heat-resistant chocolate made by dispersing the fat phase of the chocolate in a sugar glass matrix.
  • EP-A-0688506 describes a heat-resistant chocolate made by mixing a polyol gel product in particulate form with a flowable mixture of chocolate type ingredients.
  • the polyol gel may be formed by gelation of a polyol or a polyol/water mixture with a gelling agent.
  • the polyol which is used for gelation is preferably a liquid such as a dihydric alcohol, a trihydric alcohol such as glycerol, mannitol, sorbitol, propylene glycol or corn syrup or any combination thereof.
  • a further technical problem addressed by the present invention is the use of inexpensive and/or healthy oils in the fat phase of chocolate or in fat-based fillings for filled chocolates.
  • Research into the role fats and oils play in human health has indicated that consumption of saturated fats and trans fatty acids is associated with increased incidences of cancer, heart disease, elevated cholesterol levels and a host of other health problems.
  • organogels have been recognized for their potential to be used to reduce oil migration in multi component foods and to act as an alternative to butter or margarine. Organogels can be used to provide structure to edible oils thereby reducing the need for saturated and trans fatty acids. While the potential of organogels as soft materials for use in the food industry is recognized, there is a lack of good food grade organogelators. There remains an unmet need for food grade compositions that can provide the functionality and properties of a solid fat at a reasonable cost.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,187,323 describes pharmaceutical and cosmetic compositions comprising a mixture of a gelled oil and an aqueous gel.
  • the oil may be gelled with ethylcellulose by heating to 140° C. to dissolve the ethylcellulose.
  • compositions containing an active agent for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications similar to those of U.S. Pat. No. 6,187,323.
  • the compositions are homogeneous mixtures (not emulsions) of an oil component with an aqueous component.
  • the oil component is gelled with ethylcellulose at 120° C. or 150° C. prior to mixing with the aqueous component.
  • the aqueous component is gelled with a conventional cosmetic gelling agent.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,098,913 describes edible fat particles for incorporation into textured protein meat analog products.
  • the edible fat products are made by gelling an oil with ethylcellulose at 180° C. The gelled fat is then added to the meat analog product. There does not appear to be any disclosure of including a surfactant in the gelled oil.
  • PEG polyethylene glycol
  • these compositions are described as oleogels, the description and rheological data in the reference confirm that they are not, in fact, gels.
  • the measured ratios of elastic modulus to viscous modulus (G′/G′′) for the compositions are much less than 1 when measured at 1 Hz, which is consistent with viscous liquids or pastes but not gels.
  • a further technical problem addressed by the present invention is the reduction of oil migration in filled chocolate products.
  • This problem arises in chocolates having a chocolate coating over an oil- or fat-containing filling such as a praline, a mousse, a cream, or a ganache (e.g. truffle) filling. Over time, it is found that oil from the filling migrates through the chocolate coating to form an oil bloom on the surface of the chocolate coating.
  • This problem is sometimes addressed by providing a barrier layer between the fat-based filling and the chocolate coating, for example a layer of an oleophobic or hydrophilic material such as a sugar or a starch.
  • the present invention provides a heat resistant chocolate containing ethylcellulose.
  • the present invention provides a chocolate composition comprising an ethylcellulose oleogel.
  • the present invention provides a filled chocolate product having a chocolate coating and a filling, wherein the filling comprises an ethylcellulose oleogel.
  • the present invention provides a method of preparing a chocolate composition, said method comprising:
  • said method comprising the steps of:
  • SMS sorbitan monostearate
  • the present invention provides a method of preparing a chocolate composition, said method comprising:
  • compositions of the invention are suitably obtainable by, or produced by, one of the methods of the invention.
  • chocolate wherein at least a portion of the fat continuous phase contains dissolved ethylcellulose exhibits remarkable resistance to softening at temperatures of up to 40° C. or more.
  • the invention also potentially allow for a wide range of new chocolate compositions by replacing fats or oils conventionally present in chocolate by oils that have been gelled with ethylcellulose. Some of these replacement oils could contain particularly low levels of saturated fat and thus be healthier.
  • the use of ethylcellulose-gelled oils in the fat-based fillings of filled chocolates reduces oil migration from the filling to the surface of the chocolate.
  • the chocolate compositions according to the present invention comprise from about 0.5% to about 5% w/w, for example from about 1.5% to about 3% w/w, in particular from about 2% to about 2.5% w/w ethylcellulose.
  • the chocolate may lack sufficient heat resistance.
  • the melted chocolate may become too viscous to pump or mold conveniently.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic illustrating the formation of a polymer organogel by heat treatment
  • FIG. 2 shows a graph of yield stress at 40° C. versus ethylcellulose content for a first compound milk chocolate made by the solvent substitution method
  • FIG. 3 shows graphs of yield stress at 40° C. versus ethylcellulose content for (A) a second compound milk chocolate or (B) a compound dark chocolate.
  • FIGS. 4( a ) and 4 ( b ) are graphs showing viscoelastic properties of an ethylcellulose oleogel
  • FIG. 5 is a graph of oil migration against time for cream fillings for use in filled chocolates of the invention.
  • the term “chocolate” is intended to refer to all chocolate or chocolate-like compositions with a fat phase or fat-like composition. As the invention is directed in certain aspects to the control of the characteristics of the fat or fat-like phase of the chocolate, rather than the non-fat materials within the chocolate, the term is intended to include all chocolate and chocolate-like compositions.
  • the term is intended, for example, to include standardized and non-standardized chocolates, i.e., including chocolates with compositions conforming to the U.S. Standards Of Identity (SOI) and compositions not conforming to the U.S.
  • SOI Standards Of Identity
  • Nonstandardized chocolates are those chocolates which have compositions which fall outside the specified ranges of the standardized chocolates.
  • Nonstandardized chocolates result when, for example, the nutritive carbohydrate sweetener is replaced partially or completely; or when the cocoa butter or milkfat are replaced partially or completely; or when components that have flavors that imitate milk, butter or chocolate are added or other additions or deletions in formula are made outside the FDA standards of identity of chocolate or combinations thereof.
  • heat resistant chocolate herein refers to a modified chocolate composition that remains firm at temperatures up to at least about 40° C.
  • the heat resistant chocolate of the present invention exhibits a yield force at 2 mm displacement and 40° C., measured according to Procedure 1 below, of at least about 300 grams force (gf), for example at least about 600 gf, suitably at least about 1000 grams force (gf).
  • the chocolate compositions also remain substantially non-sticky at temperatures of at least about 40° C.
  • the chocolate compositions according to the present invention comprise less than about 2 wt. % of water, for example less than about 1.5 wt. % of water, typically less than about 1 wt. % of water.
  • Ethylcellulose is a nutritionally beneficial fiber and nutritional fibers are often lacking in our diets
  • ethycellulose is a GRAS material (generally regarded as safe) for use in food products making EC, particularly EC having intermediate viscosities such as about 10 cp to about 50 cp, especially suitable for the invention.
  • the cp values refer to viscosity in centipoise of a 5% solution of the EC in 80% toluene/20% ethanol at 25° C., and therefore correlate to the molecular weight of the EC.
  • the weight fraction of ethoxyl groups of the ethylcellulose is suitably from about 25% to about 75%, for example from about 40% to about 60%.
  • Suitable ethylcelluloses are available from Dow Chemical Co. under the registered trade mark ETHOCEL.
  • gel herein is used in its usual sense of a material having a continuous structure with macroscopic dimensions that is permanent on the time scale of an analytical experiment and is solid-like in its rheological properties. Gels bounce rather than flow, and exhibit substantially linear viscoelastic characteristics, at stresses below their yield stress. Gels have a melting point. Gels are conveniently defined by their rheological properties, in particular their yield stress and the ratio of their elastic modulus to their viscous modulus (G′/G′′) as measured at 20° C. and 1 Hz in a conventional viscoelastic analyzer as described below. Gel-like behaviour is characterized by G′/G′′ greater than about 1 under these conditions.
  • the gels of the present invention suitably have yield stresses greater than about 10 Pa, more suitably greater than about 20 Pa, for example from about 25 Pa to about 300 Pa.
  • the gels of the present invention suitably have G′/G′′ greater than about 1, more suitably greater than about 2, under these conditions.
  • the gels used in the invention may be strong gels. Strong gels are preferred for food applications because they have physical properties closer to those of fat, and are more effective for reducing oil migration.
  • the term “strong gel” herein refers to gels having high mechanical strength and elasticity. Suitably, strong gels have yield stresses greater than about 50 Pa and G′/G′′ greater than about 3 for example greater than about 5 at 1 Hz and 20° C.
  • oleogel refers to a gel having a continuous oil phase having the ethylcellulose uniformly dispersed in the gel phase and functioning as the gelling agent.
  • the oleogels are suitably clear and translucent or even transparent materials having the physical properties of a true gel as described above.
  • a surfactant is suitably likewise homogeneously distributed through the gel.
  • the surfactant is not concentrated at the surface of oil or water micelles as in an emulsion, nor in layered structures as in a liquid crystal.
  • the oleogel may consist essentially of one or more oils or fats, the ethylcellulose, and the surfactant.
  • the oleogel is suitably anhydrous, that is to say it suitably has a water content of less than about 10% w/w, for example less than about 5% w/w, more suitably less than about 2% w/w.
  • dissolved ethylcellulose herein therefore refers to ethylcellulose that has been dispersed in the chocolate as a solution of ethylcellulose in an oil or a suitable non-aqueous solvent. It appears that the effect of ethylcellulose on the heat resistance of chocolate may be due to a complex interaction between the ethylcellulose, the fat phase, and one or more of the solid phases in the chocolate.
  • the solution of ethylcellulose may be prepared by dissolving the ethylcellulose in a suitable food-acceptable non-aqueous solvent such as ethanol.
  • the solvent is normally removed by evaporation after mixing with the chocolate melt.
  • the ethylcellulose is dissolved in ethanol at a concentration of from about 1% w/v to about 40% w/v, for example about 10% w/v to about 25% w/v.
  • the step of dissolving the ethylcellulose in the solvent may be performed at ambient or slightly elevated temperatures.
  • the solution is added to chocolate in the molten state and mixed thoroughly.
  • the solvent is removed by evaporation while the chocolate is in the molten state, or after setting of the chocolate, for example in a vacuum drier. This method is referred to herein as the “solvent substitution” method.
  • the solution of ethylcellulose may be prepared by dissolving the ethylcellulose in a fat or oil at a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the ethylcellulose (Tg, typically about 130° C.), such as at least about 130° C., for example from about 135° C. to about 160° C. This is followed by at least partially cooling the solution and adding the solution to a reduced-fat chocolate mixture to achieve the final composition.
  • Tg glass transition temperature of the ethylcellulose
  • the solution is suitably cooled to about 60° C. to about 90° C. before addition to the chocolate mixture. This process has the advantage that it avoids the use of volatile solvents.
  • the ethylcellulose may initially be dissolved in an oil having desirable properties, and/or an oil that would not normally be suitable for use in the production of chocolate, and this oil may then replace a portion of the normal fat content of the chocolate. This is referred to herein as the “fat substitution” method.
  • Ethylcellulose has been shown to form anhydrous polymer organogels of edible oils at concentrations greater than 3% (w/w) in oil.
  • the EC and surfactant in oil is heated up to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the polymer (Tg is approximately 130° C.) with constant mixing. It has been found that the initial dispersion temperature above the glass transition temperature of the ethylcellulose is important to achieve complete dissolution of the ethylcellulose and a strong gel. After a few minutes, all the EC powder has dissolved and the solution is clear and very viscous (depending on the concentration of EC in oil).
  • the useful concentration range is between 4% and 20% (w/w) EC in oil, for example from about 4% to about 10% w/w.
  • EC will gel oil by itself; stable gels can be produced that are translucent and stiff, but they are grainy and brittle in nature, set very fast, and have a relatively high gelation temperature, typically about 110-120° C., which is not suitable for many food applications.
  • the surfactant provides important advantages in the compositions and methods of the invention. The surfactant does not reduce the temperature required for the initial dissolution of the ethylcellulose, which remains the glass transition temperature even in the presence of the surfactant.
  • the surfactant plasticises the gel to lower the gelation temperature of the formed gel.
  • the solution of the ethylcellulose in the oil may therefore remain more readily miscible with the other ingredients during the step of addition to melted chocolate or dry chocolate ingredients at moderate temperatures, which is desirable for efficient mixing.
  • the strength of the gel formed by dispersing ethylcellulose in oil depends on the choice of ethylcellulose, the oil, the presence of a surfactant, and the dispersion temperature.
  • oils may be used such as, but not limited to, Soybean oil, Canola oil, Corn oil, Sunflower oil, Safflower oil, Flaxseed oil, Almond oil, Peanut oil, Fish oil, Algal oil, Palm oil, Palm stearin, Palm olein, Palm kernel oil, high oleic soybean, canola, sunflower, safflower oils, hydrogenated palm kernel oil, hydrogenated palm stearin, fully hydrogenated soybean, canola or cottonseed oils, high stearic sunflower oil, Olive oil, enzymatically and chemically interesterified oils, butteroil, cocoa butter, avocado oil, almond oil, coconut oil, cottonseed oil, and mixtures thereof. A portion, for example up to about 50% w/w, of the oils may be replaced by one or more fats.
  • Soybean oil forms very strong gels, and so does corn oil and flaxseed oil.
  • Canola oil and the high oleic oils form weaker gels.
  • Flaxseed oil and most highly polyunsaturated nut, algal and fish oils form very strong gels. It would seem that oils that are high in polyunsaturates such as linoleic, linolenic, DHA and EPA acids form the strongest gels, while oils with high oleic acid contents do not form as strong gels. More highly polyunsaturated oils are also more polar and of higher density.
  • soybean oil or corn oil are preferred oils for the formation of gels.
  • Medium and short-chain saturated fats and oils (MCTs) such as palm kernel oil and coconut oils also form strong gels.
  • MCTs saturated fats and oils
  • the oleogels comprise from about 70% to about 95% of oils (including any fats), for example about 80% to about 90% of oils.
  • surfactant components include, but are not limited to Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80), Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate (Tween 60), Sorbitan monooleate (SMO or Span 80), Sorbitan monostearate (SMS or Span 60), Glyceryl monooleate (GMO), Glyceryl monostearate (GMS) Glyceryl monopalmitate (GMP), Polyglyceryl ester of lauric acid-polyglyceryl polylaurate (PGPL), Polyglyceryl ester of stearic acid-polyglyeryl polystearate (PGPS), Polyglyceryl ester of oleic acid (PGPO)-Polyglyceryl polyoleate (PGPO), and Polyglyceryl ester of ricinoleic acid (PGPR).
  • Tween 80 Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate
  • Tween 60 Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate
  • a compatible surfactant plasticizes the polymer, slows down the gelation process (increases the gelation time) and induces the formation of stable, translucent, elastic, non-brittle gels.
  • the surfactant does not lower the temperature that is needed to disperse ethylcellulose in oil initially (see below), but the surfactant does decrease the gelation and melting temperatures of the gel after it has formed.
  • the gelation temperature of the gel is reduced to about 40° C. to about 90° C., for example about 60° C. to about 80° C., by the surfactant.
  • gelation temperature refers to the temperature at which the oil-ethylcellulose-surfactant solution becomes solid on cooling, as determined visually by inversion.
  • Gelled oils that set above 100° C. would not be practical for mixing with melted chocolate, as heating the chocolate to such high temperature for inclusion of the polymer solution would destroy or severely modify the native food structure. Moreover, a fast gelation process would make it very difficult for the ethylcellulose to be added to food products—they would set into a gel too fast for proper incorporation and mixing.
  • a preferred surfactant for use in foods is one that decreases the gelation temperature and slows down the gelation process.
  • Preferred surfactants were determined to be SMS, GMS, GMO, SMO and PGPL.
  • the surfactant is normally a non-ionic surfactant.
  • the surfactant is an ester of a saturated C10-C24, suitably C14-C20, fatty acid with a polyhydric alcohol having two, three or more hydroxyl groups.
  • Suitable saturated fatty acids include stearic (C18) and palmitic (C16) acids.
  • the polyhydric alcohol has at least four hydroxyl groups, such as a sugar alcohol or a polyglycerol.
  • An especially suitable surfactant of this type is SMS.
  • Surfactant esters of unsaturated fatty acids such as GMO and SMO, are extremely good plasticizers, to the point where the reduction in gelation and melting temperature can be too extreme, leading to the formation of a gel with decreased thermal resistance. This translates into a need to have a higher polymer concentration in the final product.
  • PGPL is a very good plasticizer, but overheating of PGPL can lead to the hydrolysis of lauric acid, which has a very undesirable taste.
  • the surfactants used in the present invention do not comprise PEG olivate esters, more particularly Olivem 900, 700 or 300.
  • the stiffness of the polymer gel increases with an increasing amount of surfactant (a lower polymer to surfactant ratio).
  • a lower polymer to surfactant ratio there is a limit to how much surfactant can be added to foods.
  • the practical range is a 10:1 to 1:1 w/w ethylcellulose-to-surfactant ratio.
  • a ratio of from about 4:1 to about 2:1 w/w for example 3:1 w/w ethylcellulose-to-surfactant was found to be a good compromise between obtaining good gel strength and minimizing the amount of surfactant added in a food product.
  • SMS is the surfactant. It is apparent to one skilled in the art that the same type of schematic can be applied to other surfactants.
  • the molecular weight of the ethylcellulose polymer plays a role in the formation of the gel. It has been found that EC with viscosity 4 cp forms very weak gels even at 10% (w/w) concentrations. EC with viscosities 100 cp and 300 cp are extremely high molecular weight polymer mixtures and are difficult to dissolve and mix, form very viscous sols, and set quickly at high temperatures (above 100° C.). This also enhances the incorporation of air bubbles into the melt, which is not desirable. Thus, the use of EC having viscosities 100 cp or 300 cp is not very practical in most food applications.
  • Ethylcellulose of intermediate molecular weight such as 10 cp, 22 cp and 45 cp form stiff, translucent and elastic gels at 5-6% (w/w) concentrations in the oil phase.
  • EC 22 cp and 45 cp dissolve readily in the oil, the sols are not too viscous at 10-15% concentrations and they start gelling at temperatures between 70 and 90° C.
  • EC 10 cp, 22 cp and 45 cp are suitable for chocolate.
  • EC 22 cp is a preferred polymer for use in the invention. Assuming an approximate molecular weight of EC 22 cp of 40,000 g/mol and of SMS of 430.62 g/mol, a 3:1 w/w polymer-to-surfactant ratio translates into a 1:31 mol/mol polymer-to-surfactant ratio. Considering the molecular weight of glucose as 180 g/mol, and of 50% substituted ethylglucose of 222 g/mol, and of a ethylglucose monomer in cellulose as 204 g/mol, this translates to approximately 196 monomers of glucose in EC22 cps.
  • the ethylcellulose oleogels may be added to fat-reduced chocolate compositions to replace a fraction of the fats present in chocolate with oils in order to enhance the healthiness of chocolate and/or to reduce the cost of chocolate and/or to improve the heat resistance of the chocolate, or for other purposes.
  • This is referred to as the “fat substitution method” for producing chocolate compositions according to the invention.

A clear yield force was observed in the proximity of 2 mm deformation (28.5% strain). Values quoted here are for grams force measured at 2 mm deformation.
  • a fat substitute is prepared as follows. Ethylcellulose 22 cp or 45 cp 9% w/w (ETHOCEL®, Dow Chemical Co.) and 3% w/w SMS in a 30:70 w/w mixture of fully hydrogenated soybean oil with liquid soybean oil were heated up 140° C. to ensure full solubilization of the polymer in oil. Upon cooling of the melt, at 100° C., soybean oil heated to 100° C. was added at a 1:2 ratio (1/3 dilution). The final concentration of components was 6% EC, 2% SMS, 20% fully hydrogenated soybean oil and 72% soybean oil. The mixture was then allowed to cool down and set. Fully hydrogenated cottonseed oil, fully hydrogenated canola oil, beef tallow, lard, milkfat could also be added as the hardstock. This material has the functionality and texture of a fat.

  • the gel was heated to 68° C. and appeared as a thick, but flowable mass.
  • the second step was preparation of the dry ingredients.
  • Powdered sugar was made with refined granulated sugar using either a ball mill or a blender. Powdered sugar, cocoa powder (Sobeys Compliments® brand), lecithin and PGPR (if used) were combined. The cocoa powder was assumed to contain 20% fat as that was the indicated value on the nutrition facts.
  • the dry ingredients were mixed in a heated Hobart mixer on speed 1 until homogeneous. The mixer was attached to a water bath set at 75° C. (temperature difference between the mixer and water bath was usually around 10° C.).
  • the Hobart mixer was set to speed 1 until most of the dry ingredients were wetted with the gel.
  • the mixer was then set to speed 2 and mixed until the ingredients formed a single, homogeneous mass of chocolate.
  • the chocolate was then mixed for an additional 60 sec.
  • the warm chocolate was then moulded and refrigerated (5° C.) for 20-30 min. The chocolate was then demolded.
  • the resulting chocolate exhibited a 2 mm yield stress of 407 gf at 40° C., indicative of good heat resistance.
  • chocolates hardened in the fridge showed less heat resistance than chocolates with the same composition but hardened at room temperature (2339.65 and 2950.85 gf respectively). However, chocolates hardened at room temperature were generally more difficult to demold than those hardened in the fridge.
  • the solvent substitution method was used to produce heat resistant chocolate with Barry Callebaut compound milk and dark chocolates. Specifically, Milk Snaps and Dark Sweet Snaps were used. Heat resistant milk chocolate was easily produced. However, dark compound chocolate proved difficult to use in the production of sufficiently heat resistant, yet mouldable chocolate.
  • Various viscosities of polymer dissolved at 20% wt/wt levels in ethanol were incorporated into the chocolate. Results are depicted in FIG. 3A for milk chocolate and FIG. 3B for dark chocolate.
  • EC with viscosities 4 cP and 45 cP were from The Dow Chemical Company whereas EC 10 cP and 22 cP were from Sigma-Aldrich Co. In all cases, there is a marked increase in heat resistance of the chocolate at 40° C.
  • Table top, seed, and direct methods of tempering were tried for milk, white, and dark chocolate.
  • Seed chocolate was produced for use in a Revolation 2 Chocolate Tempering Machine (ChocoVision, Poughkeepsie, N.Y.) using the table top tempering method.
  • the table top method started by melting chocolate slowly in a microwave until a temperature around 40° C. was attained. Approximately one third of the melted chocolate was poured onto a cool, thick, metal table. The chocolate was then spread out then folded back into a mound. This was repeated until some of the chocolate appeared lighter, thicker, and less shiny. This chocolate was added back to the rest of the chocolate and stirred. The spreading, folding and reincorporation steps were repeated until the chocolate reached a temperature of 28-29° C.
  • the tip of a small spatula was dipped in the chocolate and left for a few minutes at room temperature. Temper was achieved if after a few minutes the chocolate was hard, glossy, smooth, and lacked streaks. The properly tempered chocolate was then moulded and placed in the fridge for 15-20 min. A cheese grater with fine grating slots was used to shave the chocolate into small seeds. The seed chocolate was then stored and used as needed with the tempering machine.

  • the EC mix was added about 10 min after the tempering process was completed once good temper was confirmed. As previously observed, samples made with EC from 20% in EtOH solutions showed greater heat resistance than samples made with EC from 25% in EtOH solutions.
  • Some of the chocolate compositions exhibited swirls or other non-uniform surface appearance. This was found especially for dark chocolate compositions. It was determined that the heat resistant dark chocolate with best appearance was produced when no heat was added during incorporation of EC, the mix was stirred for 60 s, the filled moulds were placed in the fridge (5° C.) for 15 min and then held in the mould at 20° C. for 45 min or more. This chocolate contained 1.95% EC 22 cP from a 20% EC in EtOH mix and had no added cocoa butter or PGPR.

  • SMS sorbitan monostearate
  • the mix was heated with stirring until the solids dissolved at ⁇ 150° C.
  • the mix was left to set at room temperature (25° C.).
  • the gel was heated by placing in a water bath at 45° C. While the gel was being heated, cocoa powder, sugar and lecithin were added to a Hobart mixer and mixed at speed 1.
  • the mixing bowl was heated by an attached circulating water bath set at 29° C. Once melted, one third of the cocoa butter gel was transferred to a cool, thick, metal table for tempering.
  • the gel was spread thinly on the table and then folded back into a mound. This was repeated until the gel reached a temperature around 28° C. The gel was then added back to the rest of the gel and stirred. The spreading, folding and reincorporation steps were repeated until the whole batch of gel reached a temperature of 28-29° C. The gel was then added to the mixing bowl. The ingredients were blended in the mixer at speed 1 until the powders appeared wetted with the oil. The mixer was then turned to speed 2. The mix was allowed to blend until it looked homogeneous and formed a single ball of dough-like chocolate (about 1.5 min). The chocolate was moulded and then hardened in a refrigerator (5° C.) for 20 min. The chocolates were then tested for heat resistance at 40° C. The yield force at 2 mm displacement was found to be 108 gf; which is considerably higher than for a pure cocoa-butter real chocolate, since pure cocoa butter melts below 40° C.
  • Example 3 The method of Example 3 was repeated to make a series of chocolate compositions in which a fraction of the PICO has been replaced by 10%, 20% and 30% by weight, based on the weight of the PKO, of flaxseed oil (reference examples) or ethylcellulose-gelled flaxseed oil/PKO blends, as follows (formulations in weight %):
  • Measurements of yield stress of the resulting chocolate compositions showed an increase in the measured yield stress at 2 mm displacement for the compositions made with oleogels relative to those made with equal amounts of oil.
  • Fat-based cream fillings were prepared to study the effect of using gelled oils on fat migration, as follows.
  • Cream fillings were prepared with 40% hard fat and 60% oil or organogel.
  • the hard fat used was interesterified hydrogenated palm oil (IHPO) and the oils used were either canola or high oleic sunflower oil (HOSO).
  • the organogel was prepared by mixing 6% ethylcellulose (EC) cP 45 and 2% sorbitan monostearate (SMS) in oil. The mix was then heated with stirring until the solids dissolved at ⁇ 150° C. The mix was left to set at room temperature (25° C.). After having set, the gel was heated by placing in a water bath at 60° C. The warmed gel was then added to the melted, interesterified hydrogenated palm oil (IHPO).
  • a control blend was prepared by mixing oil at 60° C.
  • the procedures were the same for sample and control from this point forward.
  • the blends were mixed on a stir plate (400 rpm) for 1 min.
  • the moulds were placed in a refrigerator (5° C.) for 20 min to ease in demoulding of the cream pucks.
  • the cream pucks may then be coated in chocolate to form filled chocolates according to the invention, for example by dipping or enrobing in melted chocolate in conventional fashion.
  • cream fillings were formulated as follows:
  • the present invention provides novel methods of preparing chocolate compositions and filled chocolates.
