Abstract

Non-fat and reduced fat whipped frozen dessert products wherein part or all of the milk fat, vegetable fat or oil ordinarily incorporated therein is replaced by a proteinaceous macrocolloid of, e.g., denatured whey protein particles or particles having a core of casein surrounded by a shell of denatured egg white protein. Illustrative embodiments include non-fat ice cream analog products having reduced calorie content, enhanced food value due to increased protein content, and possessing the physical and organoleptic character of full fat ice creams. The egg white protein/casein particles can be used also in sauces, dips, spreads, icing and cream pie fillings.
