ABSTRACT:
Shortbread having a refreshing cooling sensation upon eating contain confectioners' sugar and fats bearing long, saturated C.sub.16 to C.sub.22 fatty acid residues and a mixture of short C.sub.2 to C.sub.4 acid residues, a portion of which are propionic acid residues. One preferred embodiment contains fats bearing acetic and propionic acid residues and residues of fatty acids derived from fully hydrogenated oils containing at least about 75% stearic acid such as hydrogenated soybean oil or hydrogenated canola. Another preferred embodiment contains fats bearing a mixture of acetic, propionic and butyric and the same complement of long acids. These fats are low in calories, low in myristic and palmitic acid and trans unsaturated acid residues, and low in cholesterol. The cooling sensation imparted to the shortbread of this invention is achieved without adding other cooling-imparting ingredients such as dextrose, mint oils, or polyols, and can mask the burning sensation of artificial sweeteners and other ingredients.
