MGP is equipped to help food manufacturers meet demand for products that can be marketed as “Clean Label.”
Such products provide options that give consumers a greater sense of enjoying foods that are perceived as being more wholesome.
Currently at the forefront of MGP’s Clean Label-oriented ingredients are the premium native wheat starches Midsol 50 and Pregel 10, plus the wheat protein isolate Arise 8000.
These ingredients deliver a multitude of functional benefits across a wide array of food applications, and they are Non-GMO Project Verified.
Attributes of Midsol 50 and Pregel 10 include, but are not limited to, providing moisture control capabilities, imparting desired texture and tenderness, possessing smooth film-forming properties, increasing viscosity, improving binding and adhesion, and enhancing product shelf life.
Applications range from batters and coatings to cakes, mixes, cookies, biscuits and soups, sauces and salad dressings.
Among the benefits of Arise 8000 are its ability to provide enhanced dough strength and elasticity and effectively supplement weak flour characteristics for added volume. Breads, rolls, buns, biscuits and bakery mixes top the list of principal applications for this ingredient.
In addition to providing Clean Label solutions, MGP offers numerous choices that address growing needs for Non-GMO Project Verified ingredients. These currently consist of a combination of 22 specialty wheat starches and proteins.
Along with Midsol 50, Pregel 10 and Arise 8000, they include signature proprietary ingredients such as Fibersym RW resistant wheat starch, all other starches in the Midsol and Pregel lines, Optein lightly hydrolyzed wheat protein, and FP 300 and FP 600 wheat protein concentrates.
