The present invention provides a flavored solid-form food product that is
easily dispersible in aqueous liquids comprising an edible fat; an edible
starchy material; a flavoring agent; a solidifying agent; an aqueous
liquid; and optionally an edible bicarbonate. The invention also provides
a method for preparing a method of preparing a pre-formed solid food
product that is easily dispersible in aqueous solutions comprising
heating a mixture comprising an edible fat and an edible starchy material
to a temperature sufficient to produce a first molten mixture; mixing a
solidifying agent and a flavoring agent with an aqueous liquid to form a
second mixture; cooling said first molten mixture to a temperature
sufficient to approximate the temperature of the second mixture;
combining the first molten mixture with the second mixture to form a
third mixture; and optionally adding an edible bicarbonate to the third
mixture; introducing the third mixture into a desired mold; and cooling
said third mixture to a temperature sufficient to form a solid mass.
