Advantage of use
The VARSCELL has following advantages in different
applications, given as following:
Food products : The varscell provides
excellent control flowbility when added to the food products. It gives
excellent baking stability and has creamy feel.
Bakery : This excipient is excellent for low
fat products and are mostly used as a bulking agent. It improves the
stability and texture of the bakery items. Varscell is very stable in
hot & cold press and has a rich creamy feel.
Fluids : Varscell is ideal for dietary health
drink and are mostly used as bulking agents. It improves opacity in milk
shakes and provides a rich creamy feel. This excipient is also used in
ice-creams as a stabilizing agent to prevent crystallization.
Dairy : Varscell is used in dairy products to
improve texture and mouth feel. It is used as excipient in processed
cheese. Also used to provide stability in toppings such as yoghurt.
Meat & Sea Food : Used as an additive to
meat and sea food, varscell conserves the natural characteristic and
juices. It is an excellent substitute of fat. This expecient is also
used to convert oil based products to free flowing powder. Varscell has
an excellent freeze thaw stability.
Extrusion : Varscell is used in low calorie
spaghetti, macaroni, noodles and brownies. Besides improving the texture
and yield, it also controls the moisture level.
