Abstract:
Process for manufacturing a frozen aerated product having an overrun of between 20% and 180%, comprising the steps of;producing a premix comprising a destabilizing emulsifier, 2 to 15% fat (w/w) up to 1% (w/w) emulsifier, and 45 to 85% (w/w) of water, and wherein the (destabilizing emulsifier/fat) weight ratio of the premix is between 10:1500 and 15:300, homogenizing the premix in order to product fat droplets having an average droplet size below 0.6 micron, cooling, freezing and aerating the homogenized premix, the homogenizing step taking place at a pressure of between 1000 and 2000 bars.
