Abstract

Abstract A composition suitable for forming a cold milk pudding containing as active ingredients in finely divided form about 2 to about 8 parts by weight of sodium phosphoalginate, about 1 to about 4.5 parts by weight of calcium sulfate dihydrate, and about 0.5 to about 3 parts by weight of sodium carbonate in an amount sufficient to solubilize said sodium phosphoalginate in the presence of said calcium sulfate dihydrate. The total content of sodium phosphoalginate, calcium sulfate dihydrate and sodium carbonate ranges from about 5 to about 12.5 parts by weight and the weight ratio of sodium carbonate to calcium sulfate dihydrate ranges from about 1:2 to about 1:4, and an edible antifoaming agent is present in an amount sufficient to prevent undue foaming when said composition is employed in forming a cold milk pudding. A composition for forming a cold milk pudding containing as active ingredients in finely divided form about 3.5 to about 5 parts by weight of sodium phosphoalginate, about 1 to about 1.5 parts by weight of sodium carbonate, about 2 to about 3 parts by weight of calcium sulfate dihydrate, and an edible antifoaming agent in an amount sufficient to prevent undue foaming when said composition is employed in forming a cold milk pudding. A method of forming a cold-milk pudding by blending either of the above compositions with a suitable amount of water to solubilize it, and thereafter blending the solubilized composition with a suitable quantity of cold milk.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A method of forming a cold-milk pudding, said method comprising adding the composition of claim 1 to water in an amount sufficient to provide about 5 to about 12.5 grams of said active ingredients for about 1/4 to about 2 cups of water; mixing said composition with said water for about one to about seven minutEs at a low shear rate to form a water mixture; blending said water mixture with cold milk for a short period of time at a low shear rate, the quantity of cold milk ranging from about one to about 1 3/4 cups for about 5 to about 12.5 grams of said active ingredients, and the weight ratio of said cold milk to said water ranging from about 1:1 to about 7:1, and chilling the resulting mixture until it has set to form a milk pudding.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the weight ratio of said water to said milk is about 1:3.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method of claim 2 wherein about 1/2 cup of water is present for each about 5 to about 12.5 grams of said active ingredients in said composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
The method of claim 3 wherein about 1/2 cup of water and about 1 1/2 cups of cold milk are present for each about 5 to about 12.5 grams of said active ingredients in said composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 100 words
A composition suitable for forming a cold milk pudding, said composition containing as active ingredients in finely divided form about 3.5 to about 5 parts by weight of sodium phosphoalginate, about one to about 1.5 parts by weight of sodium carbonate, about 2 to about 3 parts by weight of calcium sulfate dihydrate and an edible antifoaming agent in an amount sufficient to prevent undue foaming when said composition is employed in forming a cold milk pudding, with the total of said sodium phosphoalginate, sodium carbonate and calcium sulfate dihydrate ranging from about 6.5 to about 9.5 parts by weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 142 words
A method of forming a cold-milk pudding, said method comprising adding the composition of claim 6 to water in an amount sufficient to provide about 6.5 to about 9.5 grams of said active ingredients for each about 1/4 to about 2 cups of water; mixing said composition with said water for about one to about seven minutes at a low shear rate to form a water mixture; blending said water mixture with cold milk for a short period of time at a low shear rate, the quantity of cold milk ranging from about one to about 1 3/4 cups for about 6.5 to about 9.5 grams of said active ingredients, and the weight ratio of said cold milk to said water ranging from about 1:1 to about 7:1, and chilling the resulting mixture until it has set to form a milk pudding.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 7 wherein the weight ratio of said water to said milk is about 1:3.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method of claim 7 wherein about 1/2 cup of water is present for each about 6.5 to about 9.5 grams of said active ingredients in said composition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 36 words
The method of claim 9 wherein about 1/2 cup of water and about 1 1/2 cups of cold milk are present for each about 6.5 to about 9.5 grams of said active ingredients in said composition.
