Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019239366A1] Chocolate Composition A chocolate composition comprising soluble corn fibre. The soluble corn fibre is suitably a mixture of glucose oligosaccharides comprising indigestible α-1,2 and/or α-1,3 glycosidic linkages. The soluble corn fibre in the chocolate composition replaces at least a part of the added sugar content compared to a reference chocolate and therefore reduces the total sugars compared to said reference chocolate. The chocolate composition and may therefore be considered a reduced sugar chocolate. The chocolate composition may have a similar taste and texture to the reference chocolate. The chocolate composition may be used to reduce the calorie intake, especially the intake of sugars, in consumers of chocolate and may therefore provide a health benefit to said consumers. A process for producing the chocolate composition is also provided.
