Abstract
A low calorie coating for frozen confectionery products, which forms a skin and which provides a firm outside coating surface about the confectionery products, is formed by dipping a frozen confectionery product containing calcium ions into a flowable aqueous medium containing an alkali metal alginate to form a coating on the confectionery product and then by spraying an aqueous solution of a calcium salt onto the coating of the coated product.
