New Tate & Lyle Starch

Great news for snack manufacturers and snackers everywhere.

Tate & Lyle has just "thickened" its starch portfolio with their latest starch product, X-Pand'R SC.

According to an article from Bakeryandsnacks.com,

"The X-Pand'R SC starch is the second to boast a clean label in the company's X-Pand'R range of starches as the company looks to follow the trend for natural foods."

X-Pand'R SC is yet another example of what T&L does particularly well, produce the finest quality products while answering the demands of consumer needs... and at present, people are asking for more "natural" food snacks.

The first starch in the X-Pand'R series, X-Pand'R 612, affords a "crispy, crackly texture, and firmer bite," explains Ryan Schuering, Tate & Lyle Product Manager.

X-Pand'R SC starch was developed to maintain the crispy, but bestow crunchiness, too.

Other claims include:

• lack of artificial additives, which clearly addresses clean label ingredient demands
• mouthfeel of fried food, minus the calories accompanying fats and oils
• non-sticky property, which enables faster manufacturing of sheeted snacks

So if you're in the business of delivering natural snacks with crunchy goodness, or just eating them, another product is at your fingertips.
