Abstract

Sucrose (30%) mono-ester (SE) at different levels alone and in combination with lecithin on the rheology of milk chocolate was studied. Factors which affect the rheology of chocolate, such as particle size, conching time, and cocoa butter content were kept constant. SE lowered viscosity of chocolate at 40° and 30°C similar to lecithin, the effect of former was more than that of latter. Viscosity and shear stress decreased with SE increase from 0.5 to 1.5%. At 2% it increased the viscosity significantly. SE with lecithin showed lower viscosity compared to individual components. Chocolate with SE lowered Casson plastic viscosity and increased yield stress compared to lecithin.
