simple label declaration.
It can be added to the batter before cooking to give a desirable light
and open texture.

incorporated into the dough before baking.

pastry dough before baking.

Fat can play an important role in the production of dried foods.
Added fat is often required in these product applications ranging between 3 and
15% of the total ingredients to be able to achieve a desirable mouth feel and
texture in the finished product.
Boxed and liquid oils are not always suitable in such situations as the
finished product must remain dry and retain it’s free flowing
characteristics. Akoflake is an ideal ingredient to use as it does not
cause clumping or stickiness of the dry mix.
CONVENIENCE FOODS
- Vegetarian Sausages
- Vegetable Burgers
- Low Fat Formed Meat and Fish Products
When producing these types of products, fat is needed to help bind the
ingredients together and to enhance the texture and eating characteristics of
the finished product.
Akoflake is suitable for these applications as it can be easily mixed and
dispersed throughout the mix without having to worry about big lumps of fat
being present.
