Responding to the vegan and healthy food trends, Limagrain Ingredients launches a new range of clean label protein premixes
Vegetarian/vegan has become a significant and growing trend. This is reflected by the fact that the number of products with a vegan claim launched in Europe has been multiplied by five between 2013 and 2017 (source: Mintel).
Indeed, the food industry answers better and better to the expectations of the vegan consumers who look for products rich in protein in order to secure a balanced diet.
Limagrain Ingredients has now launched a range of three clean label premixes for bread products or other foodstuffs with the claims:
- Source of protein (12% of the total energy must be in the form of protein).
- Rich in protein (20% of the total energy must be in the form of protein), with 2 different references: Rich in Protein Premixe and Rich in Protein Premixe with inclusion
Limagrain Ingredients protein premixes make it possible to have:
- A strong nutritional claim on the final product such as “source of protein” or “rich in proteins”.
- A neutral taste and colour thanks to the combination of pulse functional flours with a reduced bitterness.
- An easy use without any impact on the process. Dosage from 15% to 20% in bakery formulation. For more flexibility, these premixes do not include improvers.
- Clean labelling with a list of easy and understandable ingredients.
