INGREDIENT NEWS

WORLD BREAD CHOICES
Responding to heightened interest in artisan-style breads, Caravan
Ingredients launches four new items
under its World Bread line. Dinklebrot Mix makes dark, heavy,
European whole-grain bread using dinkle, an ancient grain in the
spelt family. Kraftkorn H&H, a
half-and-half base, produces light
grain bread with a flavor profile
combining banana, apple and buttermilk. Waldkorn H&H is another
half-and-half base that yields light
grain bread. And Pane Luciane Base
makes Italian-style white bread with
Old World flavor and desirable large
open holes. The breads are inspired
by the travels of the company's
global bakery consultant, Werner
Simon. Formulations from Europe
were vetted in the US by a panel of
bakers, resulting in these four initial
styles. Phone (800) 669-4092;

The Fusion colors provide consistent,
stable, bold color to processed foods
and eliminate unwanted odors and

colors, according to the company. The
new color systems provide precise
colors in the development phase and

ERYTHRITOL SWEETENERS
Erysta brand erythritol and
erythritol-containing sweeteners
from Corn Products Specialty Ingredients join the company's polyols
portfolio, suitable for preparation
of low-calorie, low-sugar and sugarfree products. Like other polyols,
erythritol reduces or replaces
traditional sweeteners. The white,
crystalline, odorless powder is approximately 70% as sweet as sucrose
with a clean, sweet taste similar to
sucrose. It contributes only 0.2 Cal
per g to formulations. When used in
combination with other polyols and/
or sweeteners, erythritol can help
minimize laxation concerns associated with some less rapidly absorbed
polyols. Phone (877) 567-8501;
