Light and creamy
The main challenge, of developing low fat yoghurts is the taste and texture. Delight protein provides the perfect solution by providing high quality dairy protein with leading functionality, texture and flavour while maintaining the low fat levels desired by consumers.
The Fonterra Delight Protein range allows customers to improve their sensorial experience with light, low fat, low sugar yoghurt. The proteins provide creaminess and fullness without compromising the fat, sugar or calorie targets.
Today’s consumer has evolved. Low fat yoghurts were typically consumed by those with a strong desire to maintain their figure, through managing their calorie intake, and in this pursuit, were prepared to forfeit a certain amount of taste and texture.
Low fat yoghurts are now increasing being purchased by a wider range of consumers, as a healthy snacking option. Making “good” choices is becoming progressively more important as the number of “overweight” people in the world reaches epidemic proportions and now equals the number of people considered “underfed”.
Many of these new consumers however, are strongly influenced by the taste experience, and are not always willing to continue to compromise between the taste of regular yoghurt and that of the low fat option. These consumers seek satisfying taste experiences and often “switch in” and “switch out” of healthy options. To meet this challenge, yoghurt manufacturers need to provide the best product via optimizing the choice of culture, sweetener and dairy ingredient(s).
The Delight protein range of ingredients allows you to provide great tasting low fat products that not only satisfy the demands of the existing market – but will help you attract new consumers as well.
