"Golden Flex is a really unique product. The industry has offered
formulaic changes to provide non-PHO options, but the Flex
processing technology that was designed in our labs at Stratas
together with an enhanced and more stable fatty acid platform,
is unprecedented and potentially a game changer," said Daniels.
As part of its commercialization validation, Stratas has been
introducing Golden Flex to a mix of clients for trial and testing,
where it has been received with very positive reviews. Some
major bakers participating in early beta testing have even
found it to outperform their former PHO products.
Soybean oil is a great "homegrown" option for the post PHO
Free era, offering a cleaner ﬂavor proﬁle and sustainability. This
new product has been in development by scientists in the Stratas
Research, Development and Innovation Center since 2015. Stratas
Foods is introducing this product innovation for the food
service area under the brand names Sweetex Golden Flex for
icing and Primex Golden Flex for all-purpose needs.
