Anuga innovations

dairy innovation takes a look at more dairy products that were on show at Anuga 2007 in Cologne.

Following success in 2006, Italian dairy company Granarolo reintroduced its Special Edition Yomo in Season yogurt for the 2007 autumn and winter season. Available in three flavours: honey & royal jelly; chestnut; and figs – the yogurts are made with Italian milk, fruit and a little bit of sugar, with no sweeteners, flavourings or thickeners. They are available in twin packs of 125g pots.

Yomo Desiderio

Yomo Desiderio is a range of soft, creamy, healthy yogurts that are “as good as a dessert”. The range includes fiordilatte and crunchy cereals covered with chocolate, lemon and meringues, vanilla and granule of hazelnuts, strawberries and cream, chantilly cream, cream and black cherries, white cream (above), white chocolate and nougat with almonds and extra dark chocolate and small flakes. * Granorolo*

Seizing on the drive for people to consume five a day fruit and vegetables, Granorolo has also introduced Yomo Frutta e Verdura 150, a range of yogurt drinks containing the equivalent of 150g of fruit and vegetables.

Packaged in four 100g bottles, the drinks are available in five different mixes with five different colours, each offering a different health property. The range includes Yellow: yogurt, pineapple, mango, orange, pumpkin; Red: yogurt, strawberry, red grapes, orange, beet; Violet: yogurt, plums, blackberries, blueberries, chicory; White: yogurt, pear, peach, melon, fennel; Green: yogurt, apple, kiwi, white grapes, spinach. * Mlékárna*

Mlékárna from the Czech Republic displayed two Bio soured milks. Soured products are beneficial to human health acting favourably on the gastrointestinal tract. Available in two flavours – natural and strawberry – and packed in 400g cartons, the 2.5% milks are produced on ecological farms in the Wallachia region of the country.

Börd Käse

German company Börd Käse has launched a Gourmet Käsecreme soft cheese containing Lemon and Ginger and packed in a 175g easy to open and resealable tub, together with a Special Edition Ziegenpeter Gold goat’s milk cheese – limited to just 5,000 4.5kg pieces.

Parmalat

After its recent well publicised troubles, it was good to see Italian dairy company Parmalat at the show. It was clear that while all the various legal wrangles were going on, the company’s new product research department was still busy developing new products. There was an impressive range of milks – designed to aid bone and tooth care, promote cardiac health, help children grow and fight free radicals.

Milk Link

The UK’s Milk Link dairy co-operative displayed its new look Black & Gold packaging that is used for the Tuxford & Tebbutt export range. Among the export range is a new barbecue and chilli cheese, produced for the US market. * AB Technologies*

French company AB Technologies has produced a range of Squizzi Cheese – liquid cheese in squeezy bottles. The range – including camembert, blue cheese and goat’s cheese – is ideal for pizza toppings, as a salad dressing, spreading on toast or in sandwiches and several other applications. It is packed in 150g plastic bottles.

The company was also displaying Zelasticks – bags of peelable string cheese, ideal for school children. The four cheeses are packed separately, each illustrating a family member (father, mother, son and daughter) that can be positioned by the child into the cardboard display.

Milino

With chilled milk bars one of the strongest growing product groups in the food sector, according to AC Neilsen, Austrian dairy company Milino has developed a range of Milk Snacks (left), available in two flavours – cocoa and honey.

Naarmann

German dairy company Naarmann has tapped into the growing popularity of coffee drinks such as latte macchiato and cappuccino with the launch of its Milch für feinen Milchschaum – Milk for fine milk froth (right). Froth is said to be important for these drinks and needs to be stable and good looking for as long as possible – characteristics that are on offer from this product.

Naarmann has also developed a Basic Mix for ice cream, containing important ingredients like cream and full cream milk refined with sugar. Alongside this mix is a similar one for soft ice cream. The company says this marvellous creamy mix is available in two varieties – vanilla and chocolate.

With yogurt being used in almost every kitchen, Naarmann has developed a fresh tasting yogurt for the catering market.

The company says the yogurts – available in natural, strawberry, black cherry and toffee flavours – with 1.5% fat, have fine consistency with good acid stability and no whey leaking.
