Maltodextrins + corn syrup solids
MALTRIN® maltodextrins are widely used in cereals, snacks, nutrition bars, granola bars and nut coatings. They improve adhesion of particulates and help provide film formation for uniform coatings. In higher solids systems like fruit leathers and granola bars, they assist in the development of a chewy texture and an increased shelf life.

Starches
PURE-COTE® modified food starches can be used as film formers on the surface of snacks and cereal pieces for shine, protection or adhesion of particulates and seasonings. These aqueous-based coatings contribute few or no calories, especially when compared to oil-based alternatives.

PURE-SET® modified food starches can be incorporated into the dry addition of extruded snacks and ready-to-eat cereals for lower barrel viscosity and improved throughputs. The use of this family of starches results in tighter cell structure in ready-to-eat cereals, which can significantly extend the bowl life.

Fibers
TruBran® corn bran can be the right choice for a source of high-purity, low flavor dietary fiber. This fiber fits well in a variety of snacks, cereal products and healthy bars. Because of the relatively high level of fiber in TruBran® fiber ingredients, they can be used at levels to meet label claim requirements without sacrificing flavor, color, texture or expansion.

Extruded Snacks and Cereals – TruBran® corn bran is a high-purity, low-flavor dietary fiber ingredient that works well in a variety of snacks, cereal products and healthy bars. Because of the relatively high level of fiber, it can be used in extruded snacks and cereals at levels to meet label claim requirements for an "excellent" source of fiber without sacrificing flavor, color, texture or expansion.

Chips – In tortilla and snack chips, TruBran® ingredients can be used to provide a "good" or "excellent" source of fiber. It blends easily with corn meal, flours and other dry ingredients during snack dough production. When looking to create a crisp texture and clean flavor profile in snack chips, TruBran® corn bran delivers.

Baked Snacks – The use of TruBran® corn bran in baked snacks such as crackers and baked chips enhances color and provides a clean flavor profile. In these products, it is easy to achieve a "good" or "excellent" source of fiber claim with these ingredients. The low moisture absorption of TruBran® ingredients requires few formulation or processing adjustments.
