Abstract: | Oil migration in filled chocolates limits shelf life due to texture changes and loss of visual appeal. Spatial and temporal
oil concentration changes of a two-layer chocolate and peanut butter filling system, which models a filled chocolate, were
monitored by magnetic resonance imaging. Formulations of chocolate varied with respect to particle size, milk fat content
and emulsifier level. Sorption-time experimental data was used to establish the best fit diffusion coefficient for a Fickian
diffusion model. On the basis of the comparison of spatial experimental data to the model, Fickian diffusion alone does not
account for oil migration.
