Abstract
A novel leavening composition comprising calcium acid pyrophosphate in combination with a carbonate factor, said composition exhibiting, in the dough rate of reaction (DRR) test, a maximum rate of release of carbon dioxide occurring between about 17 to about 40 minutes after initial mixing, said maximum rate being at least twice the rate observed at the termination of the mixing time of said test. The pyrophosphate is particularly useful in leavening systems for refrigerated dough in that an initial low rate of reaction with the carbonate factor is observed after which there is a large increase in the rate of reaction without change in temperature. The leavening composition is also useful in batters, dry mixes, frozen and refrigerated doughs and refrigerated batters.
