Abstract

See full text

The present invention pertains to a novel starch-based opacifying agent, to methods of manufacture and to food and non-food formulations containing the opacifying agent. The starch-based opacifying agent comprises an opacifier (e.g., titanium dioxide) and starch in the form of a complex in which the opacifier has been stabilized or entrapped therein. The opacifying agent can be used in low fat and fat-free foods and beverages, including coffee creamer, cottage cheese dressing, nutritional beverages, mayonnaise, sour cream, ice cream, yogurt, salad dressing and other foods and beverages that need to be opacified. The opacifying agent can also be incorporated into non-food formulation, such as cosmetics, creams and lotions.
