Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Rebaudioside M compositions with improved aqueous solubility and methods for preparing the same are provided herein. The rebaudioside M compositions include (i) disordered crystalline compositions comprising rebaudioside M and rebaudioside D, (ii) spray-dried compositions comprising rebaudioside M, rebaudioside D and steviol glycoside mixtures and/or rebaudioside B and/or NSF-02, (iii) spray-dried compositions comprising rebaudioside M, rebaudioside D and at least one surfactant, polymer, saponin, carbohydrate, polyol, preservative or a combination thereof. Sweetened compositions, such a beverages, containing the rebaudioside M compositions with improved water solubility are also provided herein.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of preparing a disordered crystalline composition having a water solubility of greater than 0.3% (w/w), the method comprising: (i) heating a mixture comprising water and a composition comprising 75% to 90% by weight of rebaudioside M and 5 to 25% by weight of rebaudioside D to a temperature between 120-100° C. and 130-125° C., (ii) maintaining the mixture at the temperature for 5 minutes to 1 hour to provide a concentrated solution, (iii) decreasing the temperature of the concentrated solution to greater than about 90° C. to about 100° C., and (iv) removing water from the concentrated solution by spray-drying while maintaining a feed temperature at 90° C. to 100° C. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mixture is heated and maintained at about 121° C. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in step (iii), the temperature of the concentrated solution is cooled to about 100° C. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a laboratory spray-drier is used and operated at 175° C. inlet temperature and 100° C. outlet temperature. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the disordered crystalline composition is X-ray amorphous and exhibits birefringence when analyzed by polarized light microscopy. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises an additional steviol glycoside.
