Abstract

A sugar-free instant-type pudding and a hydratable dry mix for preparation thereof, the essential ingredients of which are a pregelatinized thickening starch, a non-sugar bulking/dispersing agent, phosphate gelling agents, a non-sugar sweetening agent and small but effective amounts of both carrageenan and an alginate to provide a texture and setting properties in the pudding which closely approximate those of sugar-containing instant puddings and, in turn, traditional cooked-starch puddings.
