Abstract:
1. A liquid edible composition with a pH of more than 6, a viscosity below 600 mPas at a shear rate of 100 s −1 and 20° C., and a viscosity of at least 125% of the aforementioned viscosity at a pH below 5 and a temperature of 37° C., the composition comprising: a. between 0.65 and 5 wt. % of pectin having a degree of methoxylation below 50%, b. at least 5 mg calcium per 100 ml wherein the calcium is provided by a calcium salt which has a solubility below 0.15 grams per 100 ml demineralized water at 20° C. and pH 7; and c. indigestible oligosaccharide having a degree of polymerisation between 2 and 60 in such an amount that the weight ratio oligosaccharides to pectin is between 1 and 5.
