Governments around the world are targeting control of food and beverages in their quest to manage rising obesity and associated health issues.
This is impacting beverage companies in their approach to new product development and the need for reformulation of existing products.
Reducing sugar is one of the key targets in high focus.
For beverage producers, this throws-up a range of issues.
Sugar reduction in beverage products requires a truly multi-functional approach.
Challenges and Solutions – Help is out there
Covance has been supporting beverage companies on a global basis tackle these challenges, over a number of years.
In this webinar we highlight what we have found to be 4 of the primary areas of focus:
- Taste
- Flavour
- Texture
- Calorie Management
The speaker will share some of our insights on these key considerations and how they can be approached, to ensure consumer appeal is not compromised in the journey to reduce sugar consumption.
