The lab will be utilized for a wide variety of products, including baked goods, malt and oat-based beverages, creamers, nut butters, chocolates, confections, dressings &amp; marinades, yogurts, as well as further the company\u2019s push into the burgeoning plant-based proteins sector.<\/p>\n<p>Amid a consumer push for more natural, nutritious ingredients, Malt Products Corp. regularly helps customers reformulate food and beverage products as they turn away from artificial or non-nutritive sweeteners. The company\u2019s portfolio of pantry-friendly sweeteners includes <strong>MaltRite\u2122<\/strong> malt extract, <strong>OatRite\u2122<\/strong> oat extract and <strong>CaneRite\u2122<\/strong> sugar cane molasses, to name just a few. MPC produces both dry and liquid sweeteners.<\/p>\n<p>Located in the company\u2019s Minneapolis office, the lab incorporates a variety of recent infrastructure investments including ovens, mixers, shearers, proofers and temperature-controlled incubators, as well as analytical equipment such as spectrometers and instruments monitoring water activity and rheology. It collaborates with MPC\u2019s main manufacturing facility in Dayton, OH to help customers expediently transition from development to production.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to being all natural, many of MPC\u2019s sweeteners contain health benefits such as proteins and antioxidants. For baked goods, many assist with the Maillard reaction for attractive browning, and protect shelf life by controlling viscosity. Malt extract in particular is also an attractive ingredient for the exploding non-alcoholic beer market, serves as an excellent base for fermented drinks like Kombucha, and supports the viability of probiotics in specialty teas.<\/p>\n<p>The new space is a combination analytical zone and kitchen for product development and testing, sensory evaluation and shelf life testing, allowing food &amp; beverage companies to branch out into new ingredients and flavoring possibilities. The lab also features office space for meetings, problem solving, and interactive product and business development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs more food &amp; beverage companies look to revamp their products using all-natural ingredients, the new Innovation Lab provides a hub for formulation experimentation, testing the viability of various ingredients regarding flavor, binding, shelf life and other critical factors,\u201d said Amy Targan, President of Malt Products Corp. \u201cWe want to make it as easy as possible to prototype new products with healthier, pantry-friendly ingredients, and for our customers to understand these products\u2019 mission-critical characteristics.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lab provides ingredient functionality assessment and enhanced prototyping for baked [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2060","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-coverage","category-trade-press-coverage"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.6 (Yoast SEO v27.2) -
