Danisco takes low GI flavour approach
Aura Flavours in ice creams with no added sugar and a low glycaemic index.
Danisco is launching Aura Flavours for low glycaemic and low or no sugar ice creams aimed at consumers looking to cut back on sugar and reduce the glycaemic impact of their diets.
These six new flavourings from Danisco have been specifically developed to give the health-conscious ice cream a rich, well-balanced flavour. Masking the poor back notes often associated with artificial sweeteners, Aura Flavours are consistent performers, improving flavour quality in almost any ice cream recipe.
Aura Flavours are based on Danisco’s combined strengths in sugar production and flavour creation. By mapping the taste differences between sugar and artificial sweeteners, Danisco has identified various low-calorie components in sugar raw materials that, when synergistically combined with specific flavour notes, make artificially sweetened products taste more like those containing full sugar.
Consumers may be more aware of their health, but a good taste should still never be compromised. Using Aura™ Flavours, manufacturers can be sure to turn their no/low sugar and low glycaemic ice creams into the sensory experience consumers expect.
The benefits of new line are:
• Provide excellent flavour impact in no/low sugar and low glycaemic ice cream
• Mask the poor back notes often associated with artificial sweeteners
• Maintain a consistent flavour
• Improve flavour length and depth
• Strengthen brand loyalty
Aura Flavours have been created as a unique set of formulation tools for use by new product developers. They are intended to be an integral part of any no/low sugar or low glycaemic ice cream application, where artificial sweeteners are used.
The following variants are currently available:
Aura™ Raspberry Flavour
Aura™ Strawberry Flavour
Aura™ Peach Flavour
Aura™ Vanilla Flavour
Aura™ Peppermint Flavour
Aura™ Chocolate Flavour
Aura™ Flavours are also available for virtually fat free, no sugar yogurts.
