Hawaiian roll improver
offers clean label benefits
Pak Group, Pasadena, Calif., has introduced a clean label
Hawaiian roll improver through its North American brand,
Bellarise. The Hawaiian roll improver is also available in
non-allergen and non-bioengineered/non-G.M.O. formats.
"It all goes back to understanding our customers and

North American consumers," said Walt Postelwait, president of Pak Group. "Industry sales in the buns/rolls/croissants category neared the $2 billion mark in 2015, and with
demand for clean label breads only rising, development of
a clean label Hawaiian roll solution made sense."
The roll improver enhances crumb structure, resilience
and shelf life in Hawaiian-style rolls, he said.
The roll improver contains wheat flour, yeast, natural enzymes, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and natural flavors, said
Cam Suárez-Bitár, marketing coordinator for Pak Group
NA. It has no sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL), monocalcium phosphate, ammonium sulfate, sodium silicoaluminate
or diacetyl tartaric acid ester of mono- and diglycerides
(DATEM).
