abstract |
A reduced calorie diary mix for use in frozen dairy desserts and yoghurt is made from milk and/or milk products that have been treated with a lactase/beta-galactosidose enzyme which hydrolyzes lactose to glucose and galactose. This increases sweetness, reduces lactose crystallization problems and creates a greater freezing point depression. Aspartame or other high potency sweetners may be added without the need for additional bulking agents and/or bulk sweeteners. |
