Fat is the most expensive component in confectionery such as chocolate. It may comprise of cocoa butter, milk fat, palm oil, lauric oil, exotic fats, etc. This new handbook, with a large number of figures and tables, provides a comprehensive guide to all aspects of confectionery fats, with particular emphasis on the later. Unlike sugar confectionery, chocolate is a fat-continuous product and the sugar, like the other non-fat components, is merely mixed with the fat rather than melted/boiled. The properties of chocolate confectionery are thus determined mainly by the fat, which comprises about 26-35% in a typical chocolate formulation.The book describes the essential physical chemistry needed to understand the properties of confectionery fats, analytical methods, raw materials, the production and properties of confectionery fats, and their application in sugar and chocolate confectionery. It concludes with consideration of legislation and regulatory aspects of producing confectionery and of using milk fat, cocoa butter and alternative fats together with a chapter on analytical methods for detecting and quantifying confectionery fats. Finally, four appendixes provide: a glossary of terms and abbreviations used; details of confectionery fat manufacturers; details of confectionary fat products produced by these manufacturers; and a list of websites from other relevant organizations that the reader may find useful.

Go Paleo with 5 ingredients or less! The Paleo or Primal diet--known in some circles as the "Caveman Diet"--is an eating plan based on evolutionary biology and backed up by medical research. Unlike other diets which can incorporate fake, processed foods and artificial sweeteners, the Paleo diet is based on what our ancestors ate: meats and fish, nuts and seeds, and naturally grown fruits and vegetables. While some cookbooks embrace the hunter-gatherer lifestyle, the modern Paleolithic family needs healthy and delicious recipes without all the actual hunting and gathering. Bestselling author Dana Carpender helps you remove the processed convenience foods like frozen entrees and takeout, but still make healthy, fast, easy meals that everyone loves.Enjoy a whole chapter on make-ahead foods that can be quickly put together and pulled out and served in no time when you come home from work. There's also a convenient chapter of slow cooker recipes that require a bare minimum of precious morning minutes and are ready to serve when you get home--even if your family gets home in shifts. Paleo/Primal in 5 Ingredients or Less gives the modern caveman 200 recipes that can be made from 5 or fewer ingredients. All recipes are also sugar-free, grain-free, and gluten-free. This is just what today's caveman needs to cook fast and healthy meals. "As usual, Dana Carpenter has produced another winner! She's an established master when it comes to making low-carb programs easy, fun, and delicious. This fresh take on Paleo/primal belongs on every kitchen shelf!" - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., author of The Great Cholesterol Myth and Living Low Carb

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From Maria Menounos, self-proclaimed EveryGirl and host of E! News, comes a lasting weight-loss program based on the Mediterranean diet of her childhood that will encourage women to think “smarter, simpler, healthier”—a personal mantra that helped the star lose (and keep off!) forty pounds.  TV host and journalist Maria Menounos was once more than forty pounds overweight, low on energy, and often sick. Desperate for a change, she tried a wide array of diet and exercise fads—with zero success.

As a result, she lost the extra pounds, regained her energy and health—and saw her career take off. Now, applying those techniques and bolstered by the wisdom, insight, and secrets of some of the world’s leading health and fitness experts—as well as the glamorous, superfit superstars she interviews regularly—Maria has created the ultimate no-time, no-money, no-willpower guide to losing weight, getting fit, and gaining long-term health and success: The EveryGirl’s Guide to Diet and Fitness.   Inside, you’ll discover all of Maria’s secrets:   • her 9-step plan for losing weight fast • her lifelong plan for health and well-being • a complete blueprint for rebuilding your physical and emotional foundation • healthy, delicious, and easy-to-prepare recipes • the quickest, easiest, most effective workouts (no gym or trainer required!) • 1,000+ tips, tricks, and techniques for losing weight, getting fit, and staying that way • how to do it all when time and money are in short supply   The EveryGirl’s Guide to Diet and Fitness is simply the most complete, effective, and convenie...
