TIC Gums Provides Clean Label Formulations, Offering Varied Texture and Stability Options for Manufacturers

Formulation Challenges
As consumers demand shorter label declarations and recognizable ingredients, formulators are challenged to create products that meet common requirements such as organic, all natural and non-GMO. The same consumers that seek out these labels also often search for ingredients they perceive to be healthy such as vitamins and protein. The addition of nutritional-based ingredients and limited stabilizer options present a new combination of challenges to formulators. Faced with limited time and resources to provide these clean label options, manufacturers must look to new technologies to balance consumer demands and changing industry trends with their own product development objectives.

 

Clean Label Formulation Solutions
For a more efficient and accelerated form of communication during the product development process, TIC Gums utilizes the Targeting Texture Tool to standardize the way product texture is described between developers and food scientists.

 

Deconstructing a combination term like “creamy” into individual texture attributes such as mouth coating, denseness and mixes with saliva helps determine the specific attributes most important to our customers. From there, our scientists can recommend the best hydrocolloid solution to build up those attributes therefore reducing overall development time with unnecessary trial and error.
