METHOD FOR OBTAINING SOFT CARAMEL Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: food industry, confectionary industry.

SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with obtaining soft caramel due to mixing and boiling down up to desired content of dry matters of , at least, one sweet substance, a plastifier, an emulsifier and a structure-forming agent, moreover, as an emulsifier and a structure-forming agent one should apply the mixture of soluble dietary salt of polybasic acid and a preparation obtained due to successive extracting Pythium insidiosum micromycete biomass with a nonpolar extracting agent in supercritical state with water, alkali, water, acid, water, alkali and water followed by combining the first extract and a solid residue, at the ratio of salt and preparation out of biomass being similar to equivalent by the valence of acidic residue of the mentioned salt and the quantity of free hydroxyl groups of the mentioned preparation. Due to applying the mixture of soluble dietary salt of polybasic acid with a preparation obtained out of Pythium insidiosum micromycete biomass according to the preset technique it is possible to substitute a structure-forming agent and an emulsifier with it by decreasing their applied quantity.

EFFECT: higher efficiency.
