Non-hydrogenated dairy cream alternative breakthrough
Dated: 17 March 2008
UK's Macphie has announced the launch of a new generation of non-hydrogenated dairy cream alternatives.
This includes non-hydrogenated formulations of its market leading brands - Mactop, Mactop Extra, GlenDelight and Foodservice GlenDelight.
Macphie is a dairy cream alternative pioneer. In 1976 GlenDelight was launched and it became the company’s fastest ever million pound brand. This led to the development of the first dairy cream alternative in a Tetra Pak and this was followed by bag-in-box technology.
Macphie revolutionised the market with the launch of Mactop Extra - the only dairy cream alternative that can safely be stored in ambient conditions for up to five days and does not require refrigeration, even after whipping.
Rich and creamy, the non-hydrogenated dairy cream alternatives are suitable for a variety of sweet and savoury applications.
Bakers, chefs and food manufacturers can develop “better-for-you” desserts, confectionery, sauces and ready meals that will appeal to health-conscious consumers.
They offer many advantages over dairy cream, including higher whipped volume, more versatility and they contain less than half the fat of dairy cream, once whipped. They are extremely convenient with an unopened ambient shelf life of six months.
They are available in 12 x 1 litre and 10 litre packs.
