To add a dash of healthiness to baked goods, products can be refined with proteins, fibres and vegetables to give them that extra naturalness. The natural ingredients from Doehler can also help consumers meet their recommended daily allowance of ve- getables, thereby supporting a heal- thy lifestyle. The positive effects are manifold with the optimized nutritio- nal value and visual effects created by vegetable inclusions being just two of these. Using these products can also help achieve an improved Nutri-Score compared to standard market pro- ducts.
Alcohol-free – refreshing enjoyment at 0.0%
Naturalness, high-quality ingre- dients and extraordinary taste sensa- tions: for the majority of consumers,
these are the decisive criteria when it comes to purchasing food and beve- rages. And in 2020, consumers paid more attention than ever before when deciding on what to eat and drink and what is good for their bodies. Along- side reduced sugar and sugar-free pro- ducts, consumers often take care to reduce their consumption of alcohol, or cut it out completely.
In particular beverages with a con- vincing 'adult' taste profile, but wi- thout alcohol, are becoming more popular. Innovative concepts, such as brewed soda or crafted lemonades are just as popular as rum and whiskey wi- thout alcohol.
And non-alcoholic beer-mix drinks are also growing in popularity. Doehler has developed an innovative extrac- tion technology that enables a clean label declaration and 0.0% beer to be created with authentic taste for the first time. This option covers diverse consumer requirements at the same time.
With its comprehensive portfolio of natural ingredients and product solu- tions, Doehler is supporting a healthy, plant-based and sustainable future for our planet.
In line with the company's slogan 'We bring ideas to life', and as a pro- vider of complete ingredient systems and integrated solutions, Doehler therefore develops innovative and su- stainable concepts with its customers – from the idea, to implementation, to the shelf.
