Ingredients specialist Balchem is set to launch a new cold water-soluble oat-based creamer at the IFT First 2024 event in Chicago next month.

VitalBlend Oat 2540 will be unveiled for the very first time at the show, taking place from 14-17 July. Described by the company as a ‘first-of-its-kind’ creamer, it is designed to offer a smooth texture and creamy mouthfeel, suitable for a variety of applications.

IFT First attendees will be invited to sample the new creamer in Frappuccino concepts, as well as a range of Balchem’s existing beverage system solutions that aim to balance ‘superior’ sensory profiles with added nutritional benefits.
