Cocoa Butter Improvers Heat stability in chocolate products Hardness and texture The solid fat content (SFC) would not in all cases be an optimum parameter for measuring hardness. Figure 3 shows a dark chocolate with 0 %, 5 % and 10 % ILLEXAO HS 90. In all three cases, the chocolate mass is comparable regarding fat content, particle size, viscosity etc. The only difference is the amount of ILLEXAO HS 90. Figure 3: Percent ILLEXAO HS 90 in total recipe – dark chocolate g/force 1100 1000 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 % HS 90 Confectionery 20 °C 25 °C 30 °C Figure 4: Heat stability ILLEXAO HS 90 – in a dark chocolate tablet Based on cocoa butter 500 grammes weight 34 °C 4 Figure 6: Heat stability ILLEXAO HS 90 – in a milk chocolate tablet 5 % HS 90 10 % HS 90 Based on cocoa butter and milk fat Figure 5: Percent ILLEXAO HS 90 in total recipe – milk chocolate g/force 1000 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 20 °C 25 °C 30 °C The significant effect appears at 30 degrees Celsius in the chocolate with 10 % ILLEXAO HS 90 – where the hardness is raised by approx. 30 % relatively (100 g/ force measured at a “Texture Analyzer TX2”). Figure 4 shows the visible effect. There is no significant effect at 20 or 25 degrees Celsius. Figure 5 shows a milk chocolate with 15 % milk fat in the fat phase and with the Added 10 % ILLEXAO HS 90 500 grammes weight 34 °C same test parameters as in Figure 3. According to this figure there is a significant positive effect on texture at both 25 and 30 degrees Celsius in milk chocolate. The largest impact appears when 10 % ILLEXAO HS 90 is added, see figure 6 – here the hardness is raised by approx. 150 % relatively (~150 g/force measured at a “Texture Analyzer TX2”). 500 grammes weight 34 °C Added 10 % ILLEXAO HS 90 500 grammes weight 34 °C
