Cracking high egg prices
The SA series of powdered emulsifiers for industrial baking help reduce the egg content of cake recipes for significant cost reductions. With wholesale egg prices in the U.S. at their second highest level ever, and with eggs accounting for as much as 30% of cake recipes, industrial bakers have been hit particularly hard. Traditional cake gels or hydrates typically based on monoglycerides can perform poorly on stability, meaning more egg is needed. This series is based on polyglycerol esters (PGEs) of fatty acids, and offers many functional properties, allowing egg content to be cut by an average of 20%. This translates to a typical cost reduction of around 5%. Palsgaard USA

A ‘natural’ vanillin
The Rhovanil Natural CW line of natural vanillin has been expanded with three new natural flavor ingredients: Rhovanil Natural Delica, Alta and Sublima.

This non-GMO natural vanillin flavor produced with a non-GMM strain ensures quality and value that combines taste performance and cost-in-use for food and beverage processors. The flowability of these new grades is higher in formulations than that of pure vanillin, the company claims, resulting in better dispersion and greater homogeneity in the food matrix such as chocolate, bakery and dairy products.
