Abstract

Acidophilus and biogarde ice milks were from filled milk prepared from skim powder and coconut oil. Fructose powder and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS 42 % and 55%) were used as sweeteners. The results indicated that T.S., T.A., Ash, Calories, viscosity, specific gravity and weight per gallon were slightly lower in acidophilus ice milk mixes than in biogarde ice milk mixes. The resulting acidophilus ice milk was lower in specific gravity, weight per galton and melting resistance, but higher in overrun when compared with biogarde ice milk. The mixes containing HFCS were higher in T.S., T.A. Ash, Calories and viscosity, while, they were lower in freez‌ing point, specific gravity and weight per gallon when compared with us‌ing fructose. On the other hand, using of HFCS gave higher overrun, and slightly lower in specific gravity, weight per-gallon and metting resis‌tance_ From the information obtained in this investigation regarding to‌tal scores, it might be drawn that, acidophilus ice milk with HFCS 55% could yield satisfactory technological results.
