New ingredients portfolio
Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM) will be showcasing new products across a range of categories at Food Ingredients Europe 2013.
New products include premium cocoa powders; a novel, clear soya beverage from the Clarisoy line; a new confectionery and baked goods range; and flaked vegetable fats for use as hard stocks and as coating agents.
ADM Cocoa will be highlighting its expertise in chocolate with a range of chocolates, cocoa butters, cocoa liquors and cocoa powders.
The deZaan D11SQ, an intensely flavoured, dark red-brown cocoa powder will be showcased. Conferring a unique, rich cocoa flavour in low dosage, D11SQ is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including fine bakery wares, beverages, desserts and ice creams.
ADM Cocoa will also be unveiling D-00-ZR, a reduced-fat cocoa powder with only 0.5% fat. D-00-ZR can provide the desired depth of chocolate flavour to products that are formulated to be lower in calories or very low in total fat content.
Visitors will be able to learn more about ADM’s commitment to sustainability and the decision to source segregated palm oil for its European cocoa and chocolate manufacturing facilities. The company has put in place a variety of programmes to attempt to ensure that the crops it sources are responsibly produced. For example, ADM Cocoa’s flagship “Socially and Environmentally Responsible Agricultural Practices Programme” (SERAP) has distributed more than $21.5 million in funding to cocoa grower cooperatives and their members since it was established in 2005.
ADM will also provide details on how its portfolio of soya-based lecithins can help manufacturers improve emulsification in food applications such as baked goods, dairy products and confectionery.
Visitors to the ADM stand can also learn about the latest ingredients from ADM Milling. Featuring high-quality baking ingredients, the company is showcasing white, wholemeal and speciality flours, as well as its versatile range of premixes and concentrates. ADM Milling is also highlighting its latest confectionery and baked goods line, featuring innovative muffin mixes.
ADM-SIO will highlight its range of high-melt flaked vegetable fats and speciality oils. These vegetable oils have a very high melting point and are excellent alternatives to microcrystalline waxes in chewing gum products.
ADM’s presence at the show will be completed by Olenex, a joint venture between ADM and Wilmar. The new joint venture leverages the sales and marketing expertise of the two companies in order to offer customers vegetable oil and fat products with a wide portfolio, enhanced technical support, improved logistical capabilities and in-depth market intelligence. Following the recent collaboration with New Britain Palm Oil Limited, Olenex is now able to supply fully traceable, segregated certified sustainable palm oil. In addition, the company will also profile its collection of low saturated fat products, cocoa butter equivalents, non-dairy analogue fats, and filling fats. Visitors will also have the opportunity to discuss 3-MCPD and Glycidyl Esters, and learn about how to reduce these compounds in end products.
