Texture is what takes a snack from “one of many” to “one of a kind.” In this webinar, participants will learn how specialty starch-based texturizers can make a sheeted or baked snack’s texture loud and crunchy or light and crispy — and hear market insights on how achieving that just-right texture can help snacks stand out in a competitive marketplace.
Participants will also discover how to select the right starch for a given snack and what impact the starch will have on the food manufacturing process.
Key Applications:
- Pizza – Brittle – Beet crackers – Gluten-free pulse crackers
- Coated nuts – Thin cookies
- Sweet – Salty – Savory
- Plant-based – Protein – Gluten-free
