Adding concentrated fruit pieces to some applications pose a challenge to product developers. In frozen products, the pieces remain hard when brought to serving temperature. In a baked product, the high processing heat often further dries the pieces resulting in an undesirable firm eating experience. We have solved this problem with our new semi-moist bits that deliver the envisioned soft taste experience of fruit or vegetables in a range of sensitive applications.
Our proprietary technology allows us to tailor the moisture level to .65-.70 aW that replicate the semi-moist and semi-soft properties of fresh fruit or vegetables in their natural state. Now a soft bite of fruit or vegetable can be confidently delivered in mix-in/stir-in applications such as baked or frozen goods or in panned sweets where a soft center is desired. And unlike dried fruit, out bits will not burn, bleed or caramelize.
Ease of Handling and Long-Shelf Life
Our semi-moist bits are oil-coated (non-GMO soybean oil) to ensure free-flowing, non-clumping product that facilitates handling, packaging and measuring as well as incorporation into mixtures. Shelf-life at ambient temperature is 6+ months; and indefinite when frozen.
Flavor Excitement and Customization
We can also help you add excitement to your new projects through innovative flavors and tastes. Traditional to exotic single notes to almost any fusion blend is possible. Our bits can be formulated to be organic, non-GMO, or Kosher.
