Dietary fiber from sugarcane

KFSU’s Fibacel is an allnatural versatile fiber-fl our derived from sugarcane to produce healthier and tastier processed food and beverages, as well as improved product yield and shelf-life. The company’s patented, chemical-free milling process maintains the whole-cell integrity of nutrient rich sugarcane biomass in the production of a light cream, insoluble, odorless fl our with a particle size range of less than 30-80μm. The resulting product is high in iron, calcium, potassium manganese, polycosanol, anti-oxidants, B vitamins, and beneficial bio-actives. Crisper biscuits are created when Fibacel is added at 15-20% per volume replacement ratio into the recipe, as an addition of 8-10% creates lighter, moister breads. It blends seamlessly into foods including fi ne chocolate with undetectable change in mouth feel. The ingredient also provides significant cost reductions to improve yield and shelf-life of sausages and other meat based products. It has no known allergens, is free of gluten, artificial colors/flavors and preservatives. www.kfi bre.com
