The co-texturiser Novation Indulge 2740 is being launched in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and is the only carrageenan substitute to be simply labelled as ‘starch’.
It can contribute to a natural, additive-free positioning without compromising the texture quality of the final product.
Delivering high initial body and fast melt away, Novation Indulge 2740 mimics the texture profile of carrageenan to thicken and stabilise dairy-based desserts.
The new clean label ingredient can withstand high cooking temperatures and offers superior stability, to provide a functional alternative to carrageenan.
“The clean label trend is growing in popularity throughout Europe and often consumers are willing to pay a premium for puddings with no artificial ingredients,” said Corinna Faustmann, principal application technologist – dairy at Ingredion Germany. “At the same time, dairy desserts must continue to deliver the sensory attributes such as creamy, rich, smooth and velvety that are commonly associated with an indulgent eating experience.”
