abstract |
An improved frozen dessert made without sucrose or corn syrup solids is provided that employs lactitol and hydrogenated starch hydrolysates as the bulk sweeteners. Aspartame, acesulfame K or other artificial sweeteners may be used as an intense sweetener. The formulation provides a taste and texture qualities that are at least as preferable as conventional products sweetened with sucrose and corn syrup solids and further provides hardness, melting and overrun properties that compare favorably with conventional products sweetened with sucrose and corn syrup solids. |
