There has been a new addition to the Puffed Cakes family from Limagrain Céréales Ingrédients (LCI) with the appearance of micro pellets. The LCI range now includes multi-cereal, maize and potato pellets.“These light chips have a major advantage over all their rivals,” explains Patricia Panel-Dusséaux, Marketing Manager at LCI. “They are expanded at high temperature in a mould and, hence, contain no cooking fats but remain just as crunchy and melt-in-the-mouth.”
"LCI have developed their micro range cereals-based pellets to bring new texture, new taste and new colour to puffed cakes. Also, the same technology and same process - but using different raw materials - allows manufacturers to develop new market segments. Therefore, these pellets allow many possibilities of differentiation - alone or mixed with other raw materials - for the biscuit, rusk, dietetic, organic and catering markets.
“Puffed Cakes are really taking off - with their multi-cereal formulas, mixes, different shapes and textures, pleasure and health can go hand-in-hand,” she adds.
