Ticaloid Offers Better Moisture Control and Flexibility in Tortilla Products

Aug. 24, 2009

TIC Gums introduces its latest texture innovation: Ticaloid Tortilla.

Ticaloid Tortilla was created to provide tortilla producers with a more consistent, quality product with an extended shelf life. The stabilizer is made from a combination of water-binding hydrocolloids, each with different but important qualities for the finished product.

Trends show consumer interest is growing in better-for-you tortillas, which can also be improved with the addition of Ticaloid Tortilla. In addition to its strengthening properties, Ticaloid Tortilla can bolster the fiber content of tortilla products, since gums inherently contain important soluble fiber.
