Abstract

The objective of this study was to produce an aroma powder able to replace the liquid aroma in a sweet paste composition.

Three aroma molecules, corresponding to top, middle and end notes as ester, aldehyde and lactone, were studied in a mix with a ratio of 96.5, 1, 2.5 % w/w respectively as in a real aroma. An aqueous flavour emulsion (<5 μm) was prepared with water (60 % w/w), maltodextrin/acacia gum (ratio 3/2) as carrier (32 %) and aroma (8 %).

The flavour/carrier emulsion was spray-dried with inlet air at 140 °C or 160 °C. Then the atomised powders (<30 μm) were agglomerated in a fluidised bed with hot air (50–60 °C) by top spraying water or water/flavour/carrier emulsion. Then agglomerates were coated in a fluid bed with a dry thin layer of emulsion. Three structures were obtained: spray-dried powder, agglomerated spray-dried powder and coated agglomerates, keeping constant the aroma concentration of 20 % w/w in powder.

The atomised and agglomerated powders gave a global positive answer with respect to both taste and intensity when mixed in chewing gum paste compared to liquid aroma. The properties of the tested coating must be improved.
