Drinking yogurts are quickly gaining traction around the world due to growing trends in health benefits, new flavor and ingredient choices, and the convenience factor of grab-and-go.  The rapid growth in this industry has brought many different options for drinking yogurts: dairy and plant-based, short shelf life (refrigerated) and long shelf life (ambient), non-flavored and flavored, responsibly sourced, low sugar, digestive health options and more. While this is good news for consumers, it does provide challenges for formulators. Throw in the need for protein stabilization, syneresis control, suspension of particles, mouthfeel enhancement and clean label ingredients, and formulation solutions can seem impossible.  We offer an unparalleled ingredient portfolio, global service capabilities and renowned technical expertise to ensure your success. Our extensive research and innovation labs can help you develop new products that reflect the latest market trends and increase consumer appeal.

At home or in institutions, the swallowing disorder known as dysphagia is a growing concern among caregivers and medical professionals. Typically seen in older adults suffering from neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease, or those suffering from cancer-related radiation treatments, dysphagia requires nutritional solutions that emphasize safety and fast hydration while minimizing pain, disruption, and discomfort.

We offer ingredient choices and years of industry knowledge in developing palatable, colorful, nutrient-enriched foods that address the specific requirements of dysphagia-related formulas, such as clean flavor, no off-taste, stickiness or flavor masking.

We understand the primary methods of formulation while staying ahead of the curve in evolving trends, such as snacking and finger foods for lighter dysphagia patients to ensure sufferers are properly and adequately treated.

As consumers embrace alternative proteins into their daily diet, the demand for variety is driving the dairy milk substitute market. From vegans and vegetarians to those with dairy allergies and intolerances, to the curious flexitarians, more of us are seeking nature-based ways to take in protein and nutrients.

Formulators are also becoming more creative with protein sources and blends.

However, they must contend with a variety of issues when working with various grains, nuts or other plant sources. Grinding the nuts or grains into a fine powder can leave some residual solids that can settle to the bottom of the container.

Adding fortification ingredients like calcium to improve nutritional content can also present a settling issue and, therefore not deliver what is promised on the label. Beverages made from coconut have fats that may separate and rise to the top of the container. Others are very thin and need additional body and creaminess to create the right mouthfeel that consumers desire in dairy alternative beverages.

Whatever your challenge, CP Kelco has the nature-based ingredient to complement your formulation and help solve issues of stability, suspension, viscosity, body and mouthfeel.
