Disclosed are substantially clear nutritional liquids comprising protein and calcium HMB wherein soluble protein represents from about 65% to 100% by weight of total protein. The liquids have a pH of from about 2.8 to about 4.6 and may be manufactured as a hot fill product. The substantially clear nutritional liquids may also have a weight ratio of calcium HMB to soluble calcium of from 4.5:1 to 7.3:1. In some embodiments, the substantially clear nutritional liquids are substantially free of fat, and may optionally include isomaltulose and/or beta alanine.

The present invention provides a food product comprising: a formed reduced glycemic response cereal component; and a non-sticky reduced glycemic response sweetener coating over the formed cereal component, the sweetener coating comprising: a first sticky layer comprising at least about 30% fructose (of the total sweetener coating); a second less sticky layer having a DE value of about 60 or less and comprising up to about 17% fructose and at least about 1% non-fructose carbohydrates (of the total sweetener coating); and third layer comprising crystalline fructose. The present invention also provides a process for forming the sweetener coating over the formed cereal component comprising the following steps: (a) providing a formed cereal component having thereon a first sticky layer comprising fructose; (b) forming over the first sticky layer a less stick second layer comprising non-fructose carbohydrates and optionally fructose; and (c) applying crystalline fructose over the second layer.
