MULTILAYERED CONFECTIONARY
The present disclosure is directed to a multilayered confectionary with a colloid blend that includes gelatin and pectin and methods of making the multilayered confectionary. The multilayered confectionary has two non-aerated layers, a first layer and a second layer having different attributes, the multilayered confectionary formed by pre-gelling the colloid blend.
1 . A multilayered confectionary comprising a colloid blend, the colloid blend comprising gelatin and pectin,
wherein the multilayered confectionary comprises no more than two non-aerated layers,
a first layer and a second layer, each layer having at least two different attributes,
wherein at least one of the attributes is pH, and the pH of the first layer is lower than the pH of the second layer,
and the first layer and the second layer are formed by pre-gelling the colloid blend.
2 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 1 , wherein the pH of the first layer is from about 2.5 to about 4.0 and the pH of the second layer is from about 3.2 to about 5.0.
3 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 1 , wherein the colloid blend comprises about 5% pectin—about 95% pectin.
4 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 1 , wherein the colloid blend comprises about 95% gelatin—about 5% gelatin.
5 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 1 , wherein at least one attribute is selected from the group consisting of color, texture, flavor, appearance, taste, and aroma.
6 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 5 , wherein the attribute is appearance and wherein the first layer is translucent and the second layer is opaque;
or the first layer is opaque and the second layer translucent.
7 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 1 , wherein the colloid blend is pre-gelled by adjusting a gelling temperature.
8 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 1 , wherein the colloid blend is pre-gelled by an addition of at least one salt, at least one acid, and/or at least one solid to the colloid blend.
9 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 8 , wherein the salt is selected from the group consisting of a citrate salt, a phosphate salt, a malate salt, or combinations thereof.
10 . The multilayered confectionary of claim 8 , wherein the acid is selected from the group consisting of acetic acid, ascorbic acid, butyric acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, and combinations thereof.
11 . A method of preparing multilayered confectionary comprising
providing a colloid blend comprising gelatin and pectin, and
pre-gelling the colloid blend to form no more than two non-aerated layers, wherein a first layer and a second layer each have at least two different attributes,
wherein at least one of the attributes is pH, and the pH of the first layer is lower than the pH of the second layer.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the pH of the first layer is from about 2.5 to about 4.0 and the pH of the second layer is from about 3.2 to about 5.0.
13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the colloid blend comprises about 5% pectin—about 95% pectin.
14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the colloid blend comprises about 95% gelatin—about 5% gelatin.
15 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the at least one attribute is selected from the group consisting of pH, color, texture, flavor, appearance, taste, and aroma.
16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the attribute is appearance and wherein the first layer is translucent and the second layer is opaque;
or the first layer is opaque and the second layer translucent.
17 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the colloid blend is pre-gelled by adjusting a gelling temperature.
18 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the colloid blend is pre-gelled by an addition of at least one salt, at least one acid, and/or at least one solid to the colloid blend.
19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein the salt is selected from the group consisting of a citrate salt, a phosphate salt, a malate salt, or combinations thereof.
20 . The method of claim 19 , wherein the acid is selected from the group consisting of acetic acid, ascorbic acid, butyric acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, and combinations thereof.
