🍪🔁Rip Van Wafels v1 to v4🔁🍪 Our first product, Rip Van Wafels was a recreation of the #stroopwafel. This delicious caramel filled waffle cookie was first invented in a little medieval town called Gouda, The Netherlands in the 1800’s. Gouda is also famous for being the birth place of “Gouda Cheese”. Stroopwafels are amongst the most consumed cookies in the Netherlands and back in 2012 we saw a gap in the US market. We decided to reinvent this product and bring it to American consumers, much like how Chobani was inspired to Americanize mediterranean yogurt. Over the years, we made it our focus to become an impact driven company. We saw sugar as the major culprit in the sweet snack industry. 30%+ of all sugar consumed by #Americans is derived from #sweet #snacks and #deserts and the current mainstream sweet snacks out there are loaded with sugar and/or unhealthy synthetic ingredients. Over a 5 years span from 2015 to 2020 we incrementally reduced the sugar levels in our stroopwafels from 14 grams down to 3g. We did this by inventing a prebiotic fiber based cookie dough and #caramel syrup and retooling our production lines to handle these higher density and viscous components at scale. The development process was extremely difficult, with dozens of failed attempts and technical issues, but eventually we prevailed! To put things into perspective we reduced sugar by 11g or 2.5 teaspoons per stroopwafel. An 80% reduction compared to most of the major cookies available in the US all the while using clean ingredients and no #sugaralcohols. We are excited to continue to leverage our #lowsugar #foodtechnology and expand into other forms so that we can keep reducing sugar intake and in so doing tackle the sugar epidemic in sweet snacks. #mission #impact #taste #health #vitality #cookies #fiber #prebiotic #invention #kaizen #better #healthier #nongmo #technology #iteration #improvement #cuttingedge #disruption

What manufacturers really need is the ability to produce an exceptionally pH-stable yogurt that maintains its creamy taste and texture throughout shelf life. Which is exactly what our experts are now helping them to deliver. Want to know more? https://bit.ly/3V29YCD #webringprogresstolife #yogurt #taste #texture

"Smooth like butter 🎵, like a criminal undercover 🎶 gon' pop like trouble breaking into your heart like that, ooh! 🎵" BTS said in one of their song😄 We all—including BTS!—agree that butter is so well known for its smooth, melty, tender texture and oh-so-yummy flavor, right? But, what about the challenges that the food formulators out there are facing related to butter sourcing? More expensive and unstable prices, issues in importing butter from sourcing outside the country, challenges in storage and handling, etc. As we've mentioned before, the new collaboration of FOODEX with KANEKA offers the solutions to these challenges that food formulators—especially those who produce bakery products—are facing.

WORD of the DAY: #NEWSTALGIA! Thanks Candy & Snack TODAY! WILDE CHIPS is thrilled to be featured as a brand identified by Trends Editor Joan Steuer for your innovation in confections and snacks update. Highlighting many of the exciting innovations happening now, Joan reports that 2024 is all about new. New technologies to solve global issues, new manufacturing processes to lock in #nutrients, new flavors and forms, new ways to communicate key benefits, and new choices emerging from the surge in popular retro treats and nostalgic comforting classics. This includes dozens of new product spins on old favorites—a trend dubbed “newstalgia.” And Wilde, of course, hits the list at Protein: Trend #5:"#Innovation Abounds in #Protein #Snacks." "Wilde Brands Inc.’s breakthrough Wilde Protein Chips have gained a huge fan following and mainstream traction since their launch in 2018. With a business that has doubled for the third year in a row, products are now available in more than 20,000 stores nationally. Founder and childhood chips lover Jason Wright had a dream that seemed impossible. He conceived the idea of replacing empty-calorie potatoes with chicken breast to create a protein-powered, nutrient-dense chip. He did it. Now, each large four-ounce bag of high-protein, low-carb chips includes antibiotic-free chicken breast, egg whites, and chicken bone broth with native (chemical-free) tapioca starch. In addition to more basic flavors, bold new Spicy Queso joins Buffalo Style, Barbecue, Nashville Hot, and fun Chicken & Waffles with a touch of maple sugar for real-deal taste. Made in Wilde’s own USDA manufacturing facility, every serving of 20 chips yields 10 grams of protein, about eight grams of carbs, two grams of fiber, and zero to one gram of sugar." #cpg #naturalproducts #foodandbeverage

Sweetened foods occupy a large portion of the space on grocery store shelves worldwide. Products ranging from cookies to soft drinks are available to satisfy the consumer’s desire for sweetness. While some are synthetic, some are found in nature and isolated and purified for use in the food industry. One of the earliest and most widely known synthetic sweeteners is saccharin, which was developed more than a century ago and first used in food products during the early 1900s. Although its use has sparked controversy and debate over the years, it continues to be added to food products throughout the world. Do you know? Since the introduction of saccharin, the quest for low-cost, effective, alternative sweetening agents has continued in many research laboratories.
