Colored, flavored drops
Chocolate-flavored drops from ADM Cocoa now include flavored versions such as yogurt, caramel, cinnamon and peanut butter as well as bittersweet, milk and white styles. The company’s Merkens line of coatings includes colored drops, too. Also known as baking chips, drops come in several sizes, ranging in count per lb from 600 to 10,000. They fit many applications, including cookies and muffins. Bittersweet (dark/plain) chocolate is most often chosen because it delivers the greatest chocolate flavor impact.

Sugar-tolerant cake enzymes
Cakes stay fresher longer when made with the DuPont POWERSoft Cake range of sugar-tolerant enzymes from DuPont Nutrition & Health. They slow the development of dry crumbly texture, a problem experienced over time by cake products. The company reports that use of these enzymes allows bakers to extend their market reach and make an earlier start to seasonal cake production. (800) 255-6837 • www.bakeryperformance.com

Egg-, sugar-free surface wash
Add-Here CSA from TIC Gums delivers an alternative to sugar and egg-wash systems to stick spices, salt, seeds and other toppings to baked foods and snacks. The proprietary blend of gums is cold-water soluble and produces a low-viscosity solution that is sprayed onto bagels, pretzels, crackers, croutons, seasoned nuts and other baked foods and snacks. With its binding and film-forming characteristics, Add-Here CSA can hold more salt, spices, seeds or other toppings without the addition of sugar, honey, egg wash or high-fructose corn syrup.

Convenient ginger
Flavoring baked foods and snacks with ginger is easy to do with IQF Ginger from Van Drunen Farms. The spicy, tangy, somewhat piquant flavor of ginger enhances gingersnaps, spice cakes, breads and cookies. Preparation of fresh ginger can be difficult, but use of these individually quick frozen dices and frozen purees allows formulators to substitute for the usual dried spice. Dices can be candied easily for addition to trail mix or granola. (815) 472-3100 • www.vandrunenfarms.com

Fruit ingredients
Naturex provides processed fruit ingredients “with a unique French touch,” according to the company. Formats include powders, granules, crisps and extracts, which can be used to create appealing sweet baked foods with clean labels and improved nutrient content. They help raise the fruit content of finished products, provide specific flavor notes and add active extracts rich in polyphenols and vitamins. (201) 440-5000 • www.naturex.com
