DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, 05 November 2024: Tate & Lyle, a world leader in ingredient solutions for healthier food and beverages, is unveiling a new range of sweetener and stabiliser solutions designed to meet the unique demands of the Middle Eastern market. These innovations, which enhance product taste, texture and nutritional profile, are set to transform the region’s food and beverage industry.

The new to the Middle Eastern market ingredient range includes EUOLIGO® FOS, a non-GMO dietary fibre, and TASTEVA® M, both of which deliver improved mouthfeel and a clean flavour profile, creating a more enjoyable overall sensory experience. These solutions are designed to help food and drink manufacturers create healthier products while maintaining taste and texture, addressing the rising demand for reduced sugar and enhanced nutrition across the region.

At Gulfood Manufacturing 2024, taking place from 5-7 November at the Dubai World Trade Centre, attendees will have the opportunity to explore Tate & Lyle’s latest ingredients firsthand.

Through this experience, visitors can discover how Tate & Lyle’s ingredients can be tailored to elevate texture, taste and nutritional value across a variety of food and beverage applications.

TASTEVA® M is produced from the stevia leaf using a proprietary bioconversion process. It helps manufacturers formulate reduced-sugar products to achieve a clean, sugar-like taste experience at an economically viable cost. TASTEVA® M offers sweetness profiles like sugar, a clean sugar-like taste, and is made from sustainably sourced stevia leaf extract. It also provides a unique sweetness profile suitable for zero-sugar beverages.
