Hydrocolloids for vegetable-based protein beverages

CP Kelco presented Fermented Gold, For Gut’s Sake and Fruity Fixation samples at IFT 2018. The latter featured the suspension of pineapple slivers provided by KELCOGEL HM-B [E] gellan gum, which is non-GMO Project Verified. The protein protection at a low pH is achieved through CEKOL LVD cellulose gum. Wanda Jurlina at CP Kelco spoke about the potential for hydrocolloids for vegetable-based protein beverages. “We have been working in the area of plant-based proteins for many years now. Beverages have really taken off and we have all kinds of protein, from pea to almond, a whole variety of nuts, as well as traditional soy products. What we are now seeing is going beyond beverages; we are going into cultured products. People are looking for more ways to deliver these healthy proteins that consumers want,” she notes.
