One bite is all it takes. Firm, crunchy, creamy or chewy, food texture is one of the first things to directly influence the consumer experience and perception of a product. Across applications and markets, texture is an essential piece of the formulation puzzle.
Ingredient selection and protein management are imperative to delivering ideal texture without sacrificing taste. Understanding the process of optimizing proteins by using their inherent properties is pivotal to a successful result. Final product attributes will determine the proper combination of functional ingredients.
