Continuing to expand its starch portfolio, ADM is introducing ADM Confectionery Moulding Starch, a new line of starches that it says will offer high food-grade quality moulding capabilities to confectionery and gummy customers.

“ADM is already a leading provider of starch products for the paper and corrugated cardboard industries, where customers have come to know our high-quality products, our unparalleled supply chain reach, and our superb customer service,” said Kris DiTommaso, vice president, ADM’s starch business. “We are excited to offer our confectionery and gummy customers a high-quality moulding medium that will be available in non-GMO formulations for their molten and hot candy application needs.”

ADM Confectionery Moulding Starch products will be starch-based with added mineral or high stability vegetable oil to allow the product to accept and hold impressions. Advantages for customers are said to include high food-grade quality; non-GMO options; decreased drying times; and the ability to accept high quality imprintation (including shapes and letters).
