Carbohydrate–Protein Hydrogels as Fat Replacers: Design Criteria and Benchmarking Against Full‐Fat Systems

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Reducing saturated fat while preserving the sensory quality of full‐fat foods remains a major formulation challenge because fat contributes simultaneously to body, lubrication, flavor delivery, and thermal transitions. Carbohydrate–protein (CP) hydrogels are increasingly explored as oil‐free fat replacers, but many systems are developed and ...
