Deliciously Indulgent
Tate & Lyle continues to expand its Rebalance range with new
ingredient systems for reduced- or no-added-sugar desserts and sauces. In
response to the demand for lighter products, Tate & Lyle’s
European research team has developed two new sweetening and texturizing
systems for low-fat aerated dairy desserts. Perfect for low-fat chocolate
mousse, Dairy Dessert Rebalance systems are available for reduced- and
no-added-sugar formulations, reducing sugars by 52 and 73 percent,
respectively. By using Splenda® sucralose and a specialized blend of Tate & Lyle
ingredients, Dairy Dessert Rebalance can be used with Belgian chocolate to
make a chocolate mousse with an impressive calorie reduction of just over
40 percent. The reduced sugar formulation is also high in dietary fibers
and contains a combination of prebiotic soluble fibers. — Tate & Lyle, (866) 653-6622, tateandlyle.com
