Consumers’ increasing awareness of how ingredient production leads to concern about protein sustainability – especially where animal derived ingredients are concerned.
The desire for health and wellness drives the need for alternatives to egg and dairy proteins and gelatine – besides allergen issues or religious objections supply chain problems have arisen such as bird flu or mad cow disease.
In sugar confectionery Solanic reproduces the functionality of egg albumen – for foaming e.g. in meringue and chews; and also gelatin for foaming and emulsification, but unlike gelatin which uniquely cold sets, Solanic thermo-sets like egg white.
With good emulsification performance, caramels and toffee may be prepared using Solanic proteins as a complete vegetal solution.
