The dessert industry is divided into full-sugar, light and ultra-light desserts, but the problem lies with the taste of light and ultra-light dessert. They are not well-accepted by the consumers because of their texture and high calories. But a recent product launch, by Tate & Lyle transforms both the mouthfeel and taste of the desserts, without an excess of calories. The solutions by Tate & Lyle are called as REBALANCE 018 and REBALANCE 017, where the former gives 67.0 kcal of nutrition by a calorie reduction of 48 percent while the latter reduces calories by 40 percent with a total nutrition of 86.0 kcal. As per Mike Augustine, Global Vice-President of Ingredient Applications and Technical Services:
By using Tate & Lyle’s Fruit Dessert REBALANCE, fruit dessert manufacturers can reformulate the nutritional profile of their popular brands and offer consumers a product with the same taste and texture as a light product, but with far fewer calories.
This should be good news for those suffering from diabetes and cardiac problems, as now they will be able to eat their favorite fruit desserts without discriminating…why choose a full-sugar product when the you get the same taste with REBALANCE solution sets. Moreover, the solutions can be used in dairy, beverages, bakery, snacks, soups, sauces, dressings and confectionery. Tate & Lyle has launched a functional solution with a variety of applications.
