InnovoPro unveils chickpea-based
egg white replacer
company's trademarked CP-Pro 70
chickpea protein, the system is a blend of
dry ingredients for desserts that require
strong and stable foamed egg white, like
meringue and mousse. It may be easily
foamed with water and sugar to create
stiff peaks that are light in color, stable
when baking and capable of maintaining
the same shape and texture of egg-based
applications.

of chickpea-based ingredients, launched
CP-FOAM 1001, a functional egg white
replacement system.

Two potato starches from
AKFP now in North America
American Key Food Products, Closter, NJ, now offers native
waxy potato starch and pregelatinized native waxy potato starch
to the North American food industry.
Made in Germany, both starches are over 99% amylopectin
and may be used in applications such as fruit fillings, baked
foods, soups and sauces, salad dressings, condiments, snacks
and meat alternatives.
The native waxy potato starch is a cook-up starch, and the
pregelatinized native waxy potato
starch is a cold-swelling pregelatinized
starch. Both are high-viscosity
starches. They have a neutral flavor
profile. The high-gelatinization levels
bring about expansion, creaminess,
smoothness and mouthfeel,
according to the company. They are
used in binding and thickening,
imparting a shiny, clear appearance,
new textures, high viscosity and
extended shelf life.
" This high level of amylopectin is achieved by the breeding
of a potato variety specifically for this purpose, using
traditional techniques, not genetic modification, " said Ivan
Sarda, president of AKFP. " These native starches offer excellent
performance characteristics with the added benefit of being
non-GMO, gluten-free and clean label friendly. "
