Roquette is to highlight what it says is the versatility of its plant-based solutions by showcasing a selection of new food concepts at Health ingredients Europe (Frankfurt, 29 November – 1 December).

Visitors to the forthcoming expo will be invited to the company’s new “Creatilicious Bar”. There they will taste a menu of new food concepts specially created by the company’s food application experts and see first-hand how Roquette believes they address the need for healthier lifestyles.

The ideas on show will include:

+ A protein pancake: Easy to prepare, this concept combines multiple sources of protein – especially NUTRALYS pea protein – that contributes to muscle mass maintenance.

+ A healthier virgin mojito: Thanks to NUTRIOSE soluble fibre, this sugar-free cocktail is said to be an easy and fun way to boost daily fibre intake.

+ Gluten-free crunchy bites These high-protein snacks offer visitors a multi-texture experience thanks to NUTRALYS pea protein and PREGEFLO® starch.

+ High-protein vegan bars: These gluten-free, soft-texture bars are made with NUTRALYS pea protein – that helps support muscle gain and promote satiety.

Visitors will also discover XTAB polyols, Roquette’s range of directly-compressible polyols that it claims offer multiple technological benefits as well as texture possibilities for sugar-free confectionery tablets. The company’s other functional plant-based solutions on show will include NEOSORB sorbitol; SweetPearl maltitol; and XYLISORB xylitol – which offer sweetening power in tooth-friendly confectionery applications.

Roquette says it generates new opportunities for formulators to deliver innovative, convenient and healthier foods and nutraceuticals, with is clear-cut, natural-origin solutions opening up possibilities in a range of categories, from sports and weight management food products to healthy sweets.

By inviting visitors to the Creatilicious Bar, Roquette says it demonstrates its dedication to customers, and highlights the many nutritional and functional benefits of its ingredients. Members of Roquette’s team will be on hand to explain and bring to life the technical and nutritional benefits of its ingredients and to answer any questions while encouraging visitors to judge its solutions for themselves.
