“Crackers account for almost 20% of the total market in snacks,” says Patricia Panel-Dusséaux, Marketing Manager at Limagrain Céréales Ingrédients (LCI). “As a component of enjoyable and healthy snacks, crackers have enormous development potential. Backed by our expertise in cereal ingredients and in the bakery and biscuits markets, we offer a comprehensive range of products for the snacks market.
“We start with LCI’s healthy ingredients - micronised wheat, maize and other fibres. Our stabilised whole grain flour is the basis for authentic, nutritionally-improved crackers. Our functional flours, combined with enzymatic expertise give crunchier, melting and firmer-textured dough.
“We also offer original toppings - such as Nutricorn toasted maize germ – which yields a crunchy texture and a nutty taste.
“Lastly, we have a full range of gluten-free ingredients,” she adds.
