ABSTRACT:
Microbiologically stable foods which are oil-in-water emulsions usually kept at freezer temperature, but which can be maintained at room temperature and refrigerator temperature for an extended period of time, are prepared by controlling their sugar/fat content.
These foods are of intermediate-moisture content and have sufficient solutes, generally sugars, to provide a bacteriostatic effect. The sugars used are predominantly of low molecular weight to additionally provide for a significant freezing point depression. A substantial amount of fructose, dextrose or a combination thereof is preferred for its resistance to crystallization which would cause apparent hardness at low temperatures. Finally, the product can more readily be maintained soft at freezer and room temperature if its fat content is at least in part unsaturated.
