Ingredion Novation Functional Native Starches

Novation Lumina Functional Native Starches have been added to the Ingredion range of clean label texturisers.

Designed for light-coloured applications with subtle flavours, the starches have a neutral colour and flavour profile. This allows formulators to develop creamy, smooth textures without impacting light colours or delicate flavours of finished products.

Labelled as corn starch, the starches are gluten-free, non-GMO and do not require allergen labelling.

The product is designed to provide reliable freeze/thaw and shelf life stability, with gel strength and viscosity comparable to modified starches.

It is suitable for a range of food applications, including: yoghurts, dairy desserts and custards, dairy drinks such as drinkable yoghurts and flavoured milks, white sauces including cooking creams and ready meals, dressings, ready-to-eat soups and fruit preps.
