DECOR AND COATING DOUGH Related Art

The invention relates to coating of the pastry products, in food sector, such as cakes and wet cakes and making a variety of decorative figures with decors.

The invention relates to particularly a decor and coating dough, used by being shaped directly in coating of the pastry products, in making decors and a variety of decorative figures, comprising thickener, sweetener, vegetable oil, water, flavouring agent, humectant, colouring agent, acidity regulator, aromatiser and preservative; and to the production method of this. Prior Art

The doughs used presently are known as decor and coating doughs and these products over cake of wet cake let go of themselves and melt over the sponge cake (fat - free cake of wet cake) depending on the humidity and temperatures prevalent under conditions of confectionery conditions. In addition, the figures made can not preserve their shapes for a long time and their shapes become distorted also depending on the factors of humidity and temperature. In the present applications, the materials such as creme chantily and cream coated under decor and coating dough make the dough melt, depending on the factors of humidity and temperature. Resistance of the dough can not prevent this melting. Furthermore, colours of the doughs in the present applications are matt and their structures are rough. Such properties melt away the attractiveness of products. Easy shaping property is also low.

The European patent application with no EP0827693 contained in the literature relates to embellishment product for making of cream - cake, biscuit and confectionery, manufacture process and the composite product is embellished form. This invention relates to a cream - cake, biscuit and confectionery making product that can be in form of a self - aerated mass and additionally can be used as an embellishment material in a composite product comprised of a product baked in oven. The invention at the same time relates to a process for preparation of this aerated product and embellished composite product. The aerated mass is stored for couple of months at a high temperature as high as 30°C without a change in the structure, texture or flavour.

In embellishment of confectionery products, decorative doughs are commonly used in addition to chocolate sauces. The decorating doughs are prepared using water, starch, superfine sugar, butter or margarine. In the patent application with no EP0965275 related to decorative doughs, marzipan or persipan sucstitute made from legumes, sweeteners and optionally starch is disclosed.

However, said decorative doughs can not preserve their shape given by the user during the processing phase or in a very short time later after being processed, melt and release their juice or can not take convenient form even at the processing phase of the product. Apart form this; said decorative doughs are not appropriate for making of decorative figures.

In Japan patent with no JP 63109739 A, decorative doughs formed in moulds and placed over the dough are disclosed. The doughs are subsequently cooked being baked together. To obtain decorative dough, sugar is blended with thickened malt syrup and water in proper ratios and confectionery is obtained. This confectionery is blended with nuts, dried fruits, and similar and final form is given and is used over other doughs as decorative forms. The decorative dough used in the invention mentioned above is cooked together with the confectionery product on which it is placed. Therefore, it is not possible to use it with the products cooking of which is not desirable. In addition, it does not allow making a coating on the desired product without using a mould. In conclusion, the need for a decor and coating dough eliminating the shortcomings existing in the prior art, maintaining its form without distortion for a long time, structure of which will remain unspoiled without being affected by humidity and temperature by means of using particularly modified maize starch as thickener and the inadequacy of the existing solutions have made it mandatory to make an improvement in the respective related art.

During production of the said decor and coating dough, first sweetener (granulated sugar) is added into the city water at 50°C in double - walled stainless steel caldron with mixer and is solubilised for 6 minutes at 50°C. Then, respectively, preservative (Potassium sorbate) is added and stirred for 3 minutes at 50°C; acidity regulator (Citric acid) is added and stirred for 2 minutes at 50°C; thickener (Carboxy Methyl Cellulose and tragacanth gum) is added and stirred for 10 minutes at 50°C; colouring agent (Titanium dioxide) is added and stirred for 10 minutes at 50°C; and sweetener (maltose syrup) is hurled into it and stirred for 15 minutes at 70'°C until the temperature reaches 95°C.

The mixture obtained is taken to a separate dough kneading mixer and a homogeneous mixture is obtained by adding over it, respectively, thickener (Modified maize starch, which is Acetylated Distarch Adipate (E 1422)), stirring it at 90°C for 7 ± 2 minutes; palm oil, stirring it at 85°C for 2 ± 2 minutes; flavouring agent (milk powder), stirring it at 80°C for 3 ± 2 minutes; thickener (Pregelatinised maize starch), stirring it at 80°C for 3 ± 2 minutes; humectant (glycerine), stirring it at 80°C for 2 ± 2 minutes; vanillin powder, stirring it at 75°C for 2 ± 2 minutes; sweetener (Aspartame, Acesulfame K), stirring it at 70°C for 3 ± 2 minutes; acidity regulator (Lactic acid), stirring it at 70°C for 3 ± 2 minutes.

After reaching the end user, the product is taken out from the box for use and is shaped up with the help of rolling pin or manually and is made available for use without applying any heat process. The product is used in pastry products for purpose of coating and decoration by means of giving it a variety of shapes with the help of moulds or by efforts of hands.

Because the decor and coating dough according to the invention has the properties of easy shaping, maintaining the shape being applied and non - leaking, it can also be used in the making of a variety of decorative figures in addition to its capability of being used in embellishment of pastry products. The decor and coating dough are used by manual operation or by being placed in to moulds.
