- Meltec®
Sugar is not just a sweetener: it increases volume, binds,
retains moisture, and protects the structure of recipes. For this reason, replacing sugars and syrups without losing technological performance is a challenge in the modern food industry.
Meltec® is a patented system based on semi-solid vegetable fibers (70–75% vegetable fibers; 66% dietary fiber), designed to replace the properties of sugars and syrups with a cleaner label ingredient which has a neutral taste profile.
Numerous problems can arise when trying to reduce sugars or syrups, with possible negative impacts on texture,
shelf life, moisture retention, and much more. Meltec® is a sugar and syrup reduction solution that simplifies your formulation by combining multiple benefits into a single cleaner label ingredient.
Meltec® allows you to replace up to 50% of sugars and syrups in a wide range of recipes and applications, while also:
Increasing fiber content
Improving textures
Giving body
Enhancing creaminess and spoonability
Binding bars and snacks
How Meltec® transforms formulations across sectors, from bakery and snacks to frozen desserts, beverages and plant-based alternatives - delivering cleaner label performance and measurable sugar reduction in several applications.
Sugar and calorie reduction
Achieve up to 50% sugar and syrup reduction in various applications
Texture improvement
Better the texture and mouthfeel in baked goods, ice creams, savory foods, drinks and many other products.
Flexible dosage
Each recipe can be perfected as needed by adjusting the levels of Meltec®, in order to optimize the consistency, moisture content, and stability of each final product based on the desired result.
Neutral & stable profile
Completely tasteless, odorless, and colorless, Meltec® preserves the original flavor, appearance, and sensory qualities of the original recipe.
Cleaner label
Vegetable fibers derived from ingredients of natural origin (legumes, cereals, water), non-GMO and gluten-free.
Claims
Ideal for “Reduced-Sugar”, “Source of Fiber”, and “High-Fiber” claims without compromising performance.
Meltec® transforms formulations across several sectors, delivering cleaner label performance and measurable sugar reduction in several applications.
