Abstract

See full text

A composition useful as an extender for egg whites in a baked foodstuff comprising a major amount of a non-waxy wheat starch and a minor amount of granular xanthan gum, said granular xanthan gum having a mean particle size greater than 40 micrometers is provided. Also provided is a method of replacing egg whites in a baked foodstuff comprising adding a major amount of a non-waxy wheat starch and a minor amount of granular xanthan gum, said granular xanthan gum having a mean particle size greater than 40 micrometers, to replace a portion of the egg whites in a baked foodstuff. A baked foodstuff comprised of egg whites, wherein at a portion of the egg whites are replaced with a major amount of a non-waxy wheat starch and a minor amount of granular xanthan gum, said granular xanthan gum having a mean particle size greater than 40 micrometers is also provided. It has been found that if xanthan gum of a relatively coarse grind is used as a partial replacement for egg whites to prepare a baked foodstuff, such as an angel food cake, then improved properties of the baked foodstuffs are obtained as compared to the use of xanthan gum of a relatively fine grind.
