Abstract

A process is provided for preparing a frozen whipped topping composition containing milk fat, which upon thawing, has an extended refrigerator shelf life while maintaining its volume, texture and eating properties. The process involves blending milk fat, emulsifier, stabilizer, carbohydrate and water with a cross-linked and hydroxypropylated starch, followed by pasteurizing, homogenizing, cooling, whipping and freezing the composition.
