Bakes for lasting fullness

DuPont Nutrition & Health is putting bakery on the weight management map with new opportunities to keep consumers fuller longer and help them reduce their calorie intake overall.

Five new concept ideas, each enriched with Litesse polydextrose dietary fibre and Supro soy protein, target weight conscious consumers who want to put hunger on hold.

Among the opportunities is an original concept for a baked nutrition bar. Simple to produce on existing bakery equipment, the tray baked cereal bar is rich in Litesse and Supro Nuggets – a crispy combination of soy protein, barley, rice and oats that contains 60 per cent vegetable protein and complements the cereal taste and texture.

The bars qualify for EU approved high protein and fibre claims and also contain Fructofin fructose, which supports long-term blood sugar stability.

In addition to the baked nutrition bars, DuPont has developed concepts for filling breakfast biscuits, sweet muffins, wholemeal bread and soft white bread buns.
