Low fat. Food product designers should decide if fat reduction rather than fat elimination would satisfy consumers' needs. Excellent reduced-fat baked goods can be achieved by adding small amounts of emulsifiers to the formulation for lubricity, smooth texture, and mouthfeel associated with higher fat products
Flavor impact can be a problem in reduced-fat products. The initial flavor impact is followed by a decline, with eventual flavor disappearance. Emulsifiers can help with this problem by prolonging the flavor impact.
