Starches for snacks
Snacks
Snacks are foods that are not consumed as a main meal, but are eaten to maintain an energy balance between meals, or for their taste and pleasure.
For your diversified portfolio, Emfood Trading offers you all the necessary ingredients for the preparation of potato-based snacks, such as potato flakes, potato granules and potato starch. These products optimise the taste, crispiness, texture, expansion behaviour and shelf life of your product. As the world's largest producer of potato flakes, Emfood Trading can of course also offer solutions tailored to your individual needs. You can expect maximum support from our on-site experts, who can help you with their know-how during the development of your product. Thanks to the new innovation centre 'Emsland Innovation Germany', completed in 2014, Emfood Trading is also technically up-to-date and offers you the opportunity to experiment with an extruder to produce expanded products or stackable chips - plant for pilot scale production of stackable chips directly or indirectly.
The portfolio is rounded off by pea starch, which also offer high shear stability, optimum temperature stability, good expansion behaviour and neutral taste.
Emfood Trading also has innovative product ideas for trends such as acrylamide reduction, gluten-free products or Clean Label.
Direct and indirect extensive snacks
Emfood Trading offers you everything you need to produce extensive snacks directly or indirectly. Whether you want to improve the dough process in the extruder, the moisture distribution in the dough or the cutting characteristics of the dough with the extruder, we have the right solution for you. Again, we offer solutions to make excellent Clean Label products.
Stackable or moulded chips
To prepare stackable chips, you need to ensure that the dough is evenly shaped and produces uniform expansion during frying in order to guarantee proper stacking in the usually tubular packaging. Of course Emfood Trading offers the right solution for these products.
Baked snacks
Baked snacks are often produced due to their lower fat content compared to fried products and have, in turn, individual properties that must be taken into account to produce an attractive product. Our types Emflake®, Emgranule® and Emjel® lend themselves, among other things, to guaranteeing uniform dough handling and moisture distribution in the dough.
Coated nuts
Starch-based coatings on the basis of potatoes or peas enable manufacturers to create customised texture and expansion variants. By applying coatings to snacks or nuts, virtually any desired texture can be achieved, from soft-crisp to hard-crisp. With Empure® Nut Coating, Emfood Trading offers another innovative Clean Label solution.
Cereals
The term mainly describes breakfast cereals that are associated by consumers with a healthy balanced diet. Nowadays, cereals are mostly produced by extrusion processes that are cheaper and more efficient than conventional production processes.
