The process of staling of starch based food products, including baked or extruded breads and cooked pasta or rice, can be accelerated over the conventional method of holding at room temperature by use of a time-temperature-moisture protocol whereby, for example, freshly baked or extruded bread is cooled and subsequently heated to allow the formation of a unified crystalline structure characteristic of staled bread.

Accelerated staling of starch based products

A soft frozen dessert product which is readily extruded upon removal from a home freezer and which possesses good textural stability, even after prolonged, freezer storage having a defined, and relatively high, ratio of higher saccharides to mono- and disaccharides and contain sugar alcohol and/or polyhydric alcohol ingredients.

Soft, frozen dessert formulation

A frozen, leavened dough suitable for immediate baking when taken from frozen storage is prepared from the usual dough ingredients and the addition of an exogenous quantity, or the generation of an endogenous quantity of a melting-point depressant such as ethanol. In order for the frozen dough to behave as an unfrozen dough having a good loaf volume and oven spring when baked, the dough must contain from about 5% up to about 20% of a melting-point depressant, with respect to the weight of water contained in the dough.

Frozen dough for bakery products

A soft frozen dessert product which is readily extruded upon removal from a home freezer and which possesses good textural stability, even after prolonged, freezer storage, can be obtained according to this invention. The products of this invention is characterized as having a defined, and relatively high, ratio of higher saccharides to mono- and disaccharides.
