Abstract

A method for producing a moisture-stable product is elucidated, said process includes: admixing a low molecular weight water-soluble material (e.g., monosaccharides or disaccharides) having a molecular weight of from 90 to 500 molecular weight and a melting point of from 80.degree. C. to 180.degree. C., with a high molecular weight water-soluble polymeric material (e.g., polysaccharides) having a molecular weight of from 1,000-6,000. in an aqueous solution, adding a volatile flavorant (e.g., acetaldehyde) to said solution, and spray drying said solution within a temperature range of from 100.degree. C. to 180.degree. C. as an inlet temperature of 50.degree. C. to 80.degree. C. as an outlet temperature range.
