Achieving premium texture in clean-label dairy alternatives [White paper]

Texture is key to the appeal of dairy alternatives. But how can brands achieve exceptional indulgence and mouthfeel while simultaneously meeting the clean label goals of consumers and delivering important functional benefits?

To succeed in the competitive market for plant-based dairy alternatives, a premium mouthfeel and texture are essential. However, achieving good texture can be a tough task in this category, especially as consumers are seeking healthy, natural products alongside short, familiar ingredient lists.

Indeed, many traditional texturizer ingredients are either classified as E numbers or bear unnatural sounding names – which are both increasingly a turn-off for the modern consumer.

In contrast, PromOat is a natural texturizing option that supports clean and clear labels. Made from high-quality Swedish oats, PromOat is a natural source of beta-glucan, the dietary fibre in oat bran that provides important health and functional benefits. It is the perfect texturizing solution for clean-label products, with the ability to thicken and stabilize emulsions to deliver the rich mouthfeel and indulgent creaminess that consumers crave in plant-based yoghurts, beverages, ice cream, and more.

Extracted from wholegrain oats, this fully soluble oat bran fibre provides important functional and health benefits, naturally. By incorporating PromOat Oat beta-glucan into your products, you can achieve superior textures that elevate your dairy alternatives, and ultimately exceed consumer expectations.
