    Types of ingredients for the baking and snack food industries

    We offer a catalog of products that meet the food and baking industries' growing needs. Our portfolio includes the following types of ingredients used in the snack food and baking industry:

    • Preservatives

      Adding ingredients such as ascorbic acid to snacks and treats gives
      them a longer shelf life.

    • Emulsifiers

      Additives such as mono- and diglycerides prevent ingredient separation and
      soften bread dough.

    • Color Additives

      Synthetic and natural, food-safe colors change or preserve the appearance of food.

    • Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers

      While additives like aspartame make food sweeter, flavor enhancers
      create food that tastes better.

    • Leavening Agents

      Calcium carbonate and other leavening agents help dough rise.

    • Anti-Caking Agents

      Ingredients like calcium stearate keep powdered foods like flour from
      clumping together.

    • Vitamins and Minerals

      Food enriched with vitamins and minerals provides more nutrition than
      the same food in its original state.
