Expanding Flavor Profiles
SOURDOUGHS
Baking companies have
realized the potential of
sourdough in recent years
as a way to differentiate
themselves. According to
Mordor Intelligence, the
global sourdough market
is forecast to register a
compound annual growth
rate of about 6.9% through
2023. North America and
Europe account for more
than 50% of total global
sourdough sales, according
to the 2018 "Global
Sourdough Market" Mordor
Intelligence report.
The surge in popularity
of fermented products
also may feed the growth
of sourdough. From
craft breweries to the
proliferation of kombucha
products and a focus on
digestive health,
sourdough has
an opportunity
to capture
those same
consumers,
but with
bread. The
fermentation
process
necessary to
make this bread
blends two significant
food trends: the demand for

natural products and health
benefits.

lucrative sourdough market
with the exciting product
advantages of Livendo®.
Livendo® features a growing

by developing its unique
flavors and textures. Livendo

Devitalized sourdoughs
are sourdoughs where
the biomass has been
deactivated by heat
treatment. This treatment
is used to extend the
use-by date up to 18
months, while keeping their
aromatic properties intact.
These sourdough types
are available on different
substrates, which can be
combined to obtain unique
aromatic profiles.
