This range can also be used in a variety of applications, and can achieve the following colour shades - yellow, orange, red, green and brown.

INACTIVE DRIED YEAST POWDERS

Overseal offer a diverse range of inactive dried yeast powders that are ideal for a wide range of applications. Dried yeasts are supplied for products such as nutritional supplements (for direct compression), savoury snacks, seasonings and pet foods.

The main benefits of dried yeasts are its nutritional value, flavour profile and use as a bulking and filing agent.

TALIN® (THAUMATIN) – NATURAL FLAVOURING COMPONENT

Can be regarded as a natural flavouring component and has the ability to work with a variety of flavours as well as pharmaceutical applications.

Flavour modification - used at low levels of inclusion in flavour formulations, Talin® can work to produce enhanced flavourings helping to create altogether better tasting products.

Bitterness masking - functional ingredients are often associated with off notes or bitter after taste. Talin® can mask this bitterness, overcoming the perception of the notes, making the product of particular interest for functional foods, supplements, soya based formulations and beverage applications.

Providing mouthfeel - the modern trend of using lower levels of sugar and fat, even in main stream applications, provides the ideal situation for Talin® to show its remarkable contribution to perceived mouthfeel. Even at very low usage levels, in the ppm range, the resultant effect is a richer creamier product.

Sugar replacement - Talin® has a characteristic sweetness profile which is perceived later and lasts longer than other sweeteners.

HINOTES® - TOP NOTE FLAVOURS EXTRACTED FROM THE NAMED FRUIT (FTNF)

These products are designed to naturally enhance the flavour appeal of an application. The benefits of this range are:

• Natural
• Clean label declaration
• Processed without solvents, additives or processing aids
• From The Named Fruit (FTNF)
