Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the production of reduced calorie frozen beverages. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to the production of reduced calorie frozen beverages made with a sweetening system that provides enhanced taste. The present invention also relates to reduced calorie frozen beverages that are low or very low in sodium.
- FCBs Full calorie frozen carbonated beverages
- frozen non-carbonated beverages are known in the art. These frozen beverages are commercially produced via dynamic devices that freeze a mixture of ingredients including syrup, water and optionally, carbon dioxide or other gases in a mixing chamber. The mixture freezes on the inner surface of the mixing chamber, which is surrounded by an evaporator through which a refrigerant is passed.
- a mixer for example, a rotating shaft which has a plurality of outwardly projecting or helical blades/auger that scrape the mixture off the inside walls of the mixing chamber is disposed inside the mixing chamber.
- the temperature and viscosity of the ingredients within the mixing chamber are maintained by a control system that controls the refrigeration system.
- Product quality is controlled through the balance of ingredients and product agitation as well as pressures and temperatures within the mixing chamber.
- the chemical properties of these ingredients that make up the frozen beverage play an important part in the normal functioning of these mechanical frozen beverage dispensing devices and the quality of the frozen beverage products.
- FCB products have generally been limited to full calorie FCBs.
- Full calorie products rely upon common sugars, such as sucrose or high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) both as sweeteners and as freezing aids.
- HFCS high fructose corn syrup
- the addition of caloric sweeteners depresses the freezing point of the product mixture making them dispensable in a slush-like state.
- slush and slush-like are synonymous. These terms refer to the physical properties of the frozen beverage, whereby the frozen beverage is not frozen into a solid state, but the viscosity of the beverage is higher than its liquid state at room temperature.
- the present invention provides a sweetener system which more closely mimics the taste of full calorie beverages which are sweetened using only full-calorie sugars, often high fructose corn syrup, while achieving a reduction in calories, thus resulting in a reduced calorie frozen beverage with enhanced flavour.
- the sweetener system of the present disclosure can be used without added sodium which has conventionally been used for a variety of purposes including to modify the freezing point and/or the taste of frozen beverages.
- the frozen beverages of the present disclosure can be offered in both low sodium or very low sodium versions.
- the present invention provides beverage products which address the consumer's health concerns while still maintaining flavours and sweetness that have heretofore only been associated with full calorie frozen beverages. Further, it does this while not interfering with the dispensability of the frozen beverage through existing dispenser equipment.
- the frozen beverage according to the present invention may be carbonated or uncarbonated/ungassed.
- the frozen beverage is produced from a reduced calorie beverage syrup in combination with water, optionally also including carbon dioxide.
- reduced-calorie means a beverage have a calorie reduction of at least 25 % when compared with a its full-calorie version.
- full-calorie version refers to a beverage or syrup formulation in which the sweetening system has been replaced with an appropriate amount of sucrose.
- the reduced-calorie beverage of the present disclosure has at least a 30% reduction in calories.
- the frozen beverage of the disclosure has a calorie reduction of at least 35%.
- the frozen beverage has a calorie reduction of at least 40%.
- the reduced calorie frozen beverage syrup according to the present invention comprises a flavouring system and a sweetener system.
- the flavouring system may include any art recognized flavouring system for producing a consumable beverage. More particularly, the flavouring system comprising natural and/or artificial flavours. In one embodiment, the flavouring system includes all natural flavours. In another embodiment, the flavouring system includes a combination of natural and artificial flavours. In yet another embodiment, the flavouring system includes only artificial flavours.
- the flavouring system is that of a cola product and comprises caffeine, natural flavours and caramel color.
- the flavouring system comprises citric acid.
- the flavouring system can further comprise additional flavour components which will be readily apparent to the skilled artisan. Additional flavour components can include but are not limited to caffeine, phosphoric acid, caramel color, propylene glycol, citric acid, fruit flavours including lemon, orange, lime, cherry, strawberry, raspberry, grape, and grapefruit, cola, root beer, coffee, tea, botanical flavors including flavors derived from nuts, bark, roots and leaves and mixtures thereof.
- the sweetener system comprises at least one nutritive and at least two non-nutritive sweeteners.
- Nutritive sweeteners for use in the present invention can include any recognized nutritive sweetener including, but not limited to, sugars, including high fructose corn syrup, sucrose, glucose, fructose, lactose, cane sugar, beet sugar, maltose, dextrose, matodextrin, crystalline fructose and fruit juice concentrates.
- the amount of nutritive sweetener can be minimized to the limit of dispensability or can be increased, but the skilled artisan would recognize that any increase would cause a concurrent increase in the calorie content of the frozen beverage.
- the nutritive sweetener is present in the beverage syrup in an amount ranging from 15 to 45%.
- the amount of nutritive sweetener in the final beverage can range, for example, from between 5% and 20%.
- the nutritive sweetener in the syrup ranges from 15% to 35%.
- the nutritive sweetener in the syrup ranges from 25% to 45%.
- the at least two non-nutritive sweeteners are chosen from aspartame, sucralose and acesulfame(K). According to one embodiment, the non-nutritive sweetener is present in the beverage syrup in an amount ranging 0.02 to 3%. In another embodiment, the non-nutritive sweetener ranges from 0.04 to 1.0%. In yet another embodiment, the non-nutritive sweetener ranges from 0.03 to 0.08%.
- the sweetening system may include additional sweetening additives which include but are not limited to saccharin and neotame.
- additional sweetening additives which include but are not limited to saccharin and neotame.
- the frozen beverage syrup of the present disclosure comprises up to 5% aspartame and up to 5% Acesulfame- K.
- the sweetener system of the present invention comprises Aspartame and Acesulfame-K, wherein there is less Acesulfame-K present than Aspartame.
- compositions which may be present in the frozen beverage syrup according to the present invention include, preservatives, colorants, foaming agents, vitamins (including A, B3, B6, B12, C and E), minerals (including magnesium, potassium, calcium), fruit juice, and tea solids.
- Preservatives can include any art recognized preservatives, including but not limited to, potassium benzoate, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, and EDTA.
- Colorants can include any art recognized colorants, including by not limited to artificial colors, natural colors (including caramel color), fruit and vegetable juice extracts.
- Saponins or foaming agents can include any art recognized foaming agents, including, but not limited to Quillaia, Yucca extract and propylene glycol alginate.
- the reduced calorie frozen beverage of the disclosure is a frozen cola beverage.
- the product may include the following components and amounts.
- Yucca extract less than 5% less than 5%
- the reduced calorie frozen beverage of the disclosure is a frozen non-cola beverage.
- the product may include the following components and amounts: Ingredient Syrup Beverage
- Citric acid less than 5% less than 5%
- the non-cola beverage may be further combined with a secondary flavouring system after dispensing of the product from the mixing chamber. Incorporation of the secondary flavouring system may occur after the beverage is dispensed into a cup.
- a secondary flavouring system will be readily apparent to the skilled artisan and might include for example, cherry, blue raspberry, lemon/lime, grape, strawberry, raspberry, grapefruit, cola, rootbeer, orange, tea, vanilla, coconut, passion fruit, mango, and combinations thereof.
- Frozen beverages according to the present disclosure exhibit enhanced taste.
- "enhanced taste” refers to a frozen beverage whose taste is considered to more closely resemble the taste of a full-calorie version frozen beverage.
- "taste” is to be measured by a panel of 100 people who are asked to taste and evaluate the products. The tasters are selected based upon demographic criteria, for example, age and type of beverages they prefer. The correct measuring demographic for "enhanced taste" associated with the present invention are those people who prefer full-calorie or mid-calorie drinks.
- the frozen beverage of the present invention does not suffer from the laxative effect that can often be associated with sugar substitutes.
- ingredients such as isomalt, malitol and lactitol are not well absorbed by the small intestine and thus, they enter the large intestine where they are fermented by anaerobic bacteria to produce short chain fatty acids and gases.
- Short chain fatty acids have a high water binding activity providing possible effects such as soft stools and diarrhea.
- Example 1 [028] A light cola frozen beverage syrup was produced by combining
- the frozen beverage syrup was placed into the mixing chamber of a mechanical frozen beverage dispenser with 4.4:1 water and carbon dioxide. After cooling, a slush-like frozen carbonated beverage was dispensed.
- a neutral slush base syrup was produced by combining:
- the neutral slush base syrup was placed into the mixing chamber of a mechanical frozen beverage dispenser with 4.5:1 water. After cooling, a slush-like frozen uncarbonated beverage was dispensed. To the neutral base was added an additional flavour component.
