  • Use of Natural Colours in the Ice Cream Industry
    USE OF NATURAL COLOURS IN THE ICE CREAM INDUSTRY Dr. Juan Mario Sanz Penella Dr. Emanuele Pedrazzini Dr. José García Reverter SECNA NATURAL INGREDIENTS GROUP Definition of ice cream Ice cream is a frozen dessert, a term that includes different types of product that are consumed frozen and that includes sorbets, frozen yogurts, non-dairy frozen desserts and, of course, ice cream. In order to simplify its classification, we can consider for practical purposes two different types of frozen desserts: ice cream and sorbets. Ice cream includes all products that have a neutral pH and contain dairy ingredients. While sorbet refers to products with an acidic pH, made with water and other ingredients such as fruit, but without the use of dairy. Additionally, when referring to ice cream, we are not referring to a single type of product, we are actually referring to a wide range of these. Ice cream is a food in which the three states of matter coexist, namely: water in liquid form and as ice crystals, sugars, fats and proteins in solid form and occluded air bubbles in gaseous form, Figure 1. Artisanal ice creams based on natural ingredients which give it its special texture. It should be noted that ice cream is a very complete food from a nutritional point of view since it incorporates in its formulation a wide range of ingredients (sugars, milk, fruits, egg products ...) essential for a balanced diet. Another aspect of great relevance in the manufacture of ice cream is the hedonic factor. Ice cream is consumed mainly for the pure pleasure of tasting it, the hedonic component being the main factor that triggers its consumption, considering its formulation and design a series of strategies to evoke a full range of sensations: gustatory, olfactory, visual and even, of the touch and the ear.

    CASE STUDY February 2016 Customers swoon for Bristol’s finest gelato offering Few things are more appealing than the true taste of authentic gelato, so now, thanks to the opening of Swoon in the heart of Bristol’s bustling city centre, those living locally and many of the regions tourists can enjoy a range of wonderful flavours made on site, throughout the day. The brainchild of owner, Bruno Forte, whose family have been producing real Italian Gelato for well over a century, Swoon’s ethos focuses on using only the finest ingredients from around the world and combining them with a traditional process known for giving gelato its distinctive, smooth texture and delightful flavour. Bruno starts by saying: “I had been considering setting up a gelato business for a number of years, having grown up in a family of passionate chefs and hospitality professionals. With limited knowledge and experience myself, I took the decision to sign up for an intensive course which would at least allow me to understand the basics. Having researched different options, I decided to join the Carpigiani Gelato University in Bologna, Italy – the home of authentic gelato. In September 2014, I undertook the one week introductory course and immediately fell in love with the process.” As the global leader in the manufacture of gelato and ice cream equipment, Carpigiani offers unrivalled expertise and decades of experience in the market. The Carpigiani Gelato University is an internationally renowned programme of courses varying from a one day introduction up to a four week, detailed look at everything from running a business to making gelato, Bruno continues: “Having gained a basic knowledge of gelato production on the one week course, I booked onto the second and third weeks to give me a greater understanding of the product and the possibilities available from producing it.
