    Dairy & Ice Cream

    Consumers of dairy products are increasingly seeking high-quality, clean label and high-protein options and have a big interest in health and convenience. Hence the dairy & ice cream market is undergoing an evolution of innovations. Brenntag Food & Nutrition supplies a wide range of functional ingredients for the dairy industry. Our food experts help you to develop innovative products ranging from creamy, indulgence ice creams, to healthy low-fat yoghurts, to vegan alternatives.

    Over-the-top and luxury desserts with as many elements added as possible are a huge trend: Especially young consumers love to treat themselves to ice cream or milk shakes mixed with syrups, biscuit or cake pieces, candy and fruits, and topped with cream and waffles. In times of social media, a colorful and delicious appearance of special indulgences is essential.

    An appetite for innovation

    When we think of ice cream, we probably don’t associate it with savory flavours, dairy-free vegan options or probiotics added - but this is what’s happening. By replacing some of the traditional ingredients like sugar or fat and retaining flavor and texture, manufacturers are creating healthier options that appeal to modern consumers. No or reduced fat has become the standard for spoonable yoghurts as well. In yoghurts containing fruit, oligofructose and inulin are often added via the fruit preparation. And with around twice the protein content of standard yoghurt, it’s no wonder that variations of cream cheese like quark and skyr are in demand – especially in Europe.

    We are committed to provide better nutrition with our extensive health promoting product portfolio through technical excellence and deep understanding of the Korean market.

    Variations with added protein, reduced lactose, reduced sodium, and dairy-free experience high demand around the world. New concepts like plant-based cheeses offer an alternative for vegans, flexitarians and the lactose intolerant. The thirst for creative varieties also applies to drinks containing soybeans, almond and oats. Fermented dairy drinks, such as kefir, are especially desirable.

    The texture, mouthfeel, shelf-life and appearance of dairy products such as drinking or spoonable fermented products and flavoured milk are key factors that consumers are looking for. Whether authentic and recognisable, or novel and sensational – the demand for flavoured dairy products is growing. This is where Brenntag Food & Nutrition can support you in all segments of the dairy and ice cream market.
