Mayonnaise & dressings

When looking to reduce the fat content in your salad dressing, chose the high performance water binding starches from the EmulsiForm range. It will keep your dressing stable and ensure a pleasant mouthfeel.

Use ColdSwell specialty starches to bind water effectively and thicken bakery creams, fruit fillings, dressings or microwaveable sauces. ColdSwell products result in high viscosity at low temperatures and keep the same texture and viscosity after heating. Include our easily dispersible ColdSwell versions as an excellent ingredient in dry mixes.

We can help delay the staling effect in your yeast based dough and keep your buns fresh and appealing for longer by adding Potato Flakes, Potato Granules or FiberBind.

Let KMC Gelamyl replace gelatin – partially or fully – and reduce costs. Our product range provides the specific functionality desired for your end product whether it is licorice pastilles, tender gum or jelly confectionery. We control texture, elasticity and consistency from soft to hard or from elastic to brittle. KMC Gelamyl is neutral in taste and gives a great flavor release.

Meat

Fat reduction is at the top of the agenda and with KMC potato based ingredients we can help lowering the fat content in your beef patty while keeping a rich and juicy taste. Furthermore, a high water loss during frying is a challenge when preparing the good burger. Adding Potato Flakes or FiberBind to your patty will improve the yield of the fried hamburger and give you a more appealing and juicy sensation.
