Food ingredients firm Ohly launches Maple syrup powder

Global yeast extract supplier Ohly has launched its new maple syrup specialty powder to provide food manufacturers and consumers access to flavour components.

The product will be part of its ProDry range that offer maple syrup flavour and sweetness as a free-flowing powder.

Ohly Americas general manager Jay Wickeham said: “The response to the maple syrup powder from existing customers has been overwhelmingly positive. Canadian maple syrup is distinctive and popular, it’s a flavour that really delights consumers and is a powerful addition to Seasonings in order to improve them with sweetness and depth.”

The powder is produced using 100% Canadian maple syrup and all identity-preserved ingredients.

The ProDry process helps in retaining all the volatile flavour components, and protects the distinctive and characteristic flavour profile of Maple syrup.

The company said that the new free-flowing ProDry powder form of the syrup will benefit the manufacturers as it will not clog, clump or stick, thereby eliminating waste and sanitation problems found with liquid syrup.

Ohly offers a wide range of products such as yeast extracts, autolysed yeast, inactive dry yeast and yeast-based flavours, as well as active yeast and bacteria for the food, fermentation and nutrition markets worldwide.

The company is part of the ABF Ingredients group, which focuses on high-value ingredients in food and non-food applications.
