Creamiz uses starch modification technology to make it a contender for fat substitution in a wide range of food products. It will not affect the creaminess of products it’s used in, but instead will complement and enhance their existing texture.
Clotilde Feuillade, product manager for texturants at Tate & Lyle Food Ingredients Europe, said: “With the continuing move towards health and wellness, consumers are placing more emphasis than ever before on a balanced diet. Creamiz will help manufacturers respond to this, by reducing the fat content of their products while keeping the cost down.
“Because modified food starches are used in a wide range of food products, Creamiz can, in many cases, be used to reduce the fat content without adding an additional ingredient to the ingredient declaration on the label. In addition to its functional and nutritional benefits, Creamiz can be used on standard food manufacturing lines and doesn’t require specific equipment to be added. Given that it will help reduce costs and improve the nutritional profile of customers’ products, we expect it to be extremely popular.”
