The current issue of the Culivision Trend Report, in which the Fuchs Gruppe’s industrial division highlights flavour trends and provides impetus for new products, is dedicated to the trendsetter waffle.
The report presents creative flavour ideas and trend profiles that meet the needs of the meat substitutes, dairy and snack industries for variety and innovative new products. The result is product solutions that meet the flavour trends of tomorrow:
- Waffle Karo à la Pizza: The savoury wafer snack convinces pizza fans with a hint of parmesan and Italian herbs.
- Sweet waffle snack: The extrudate in the iconic grid/waffle shape is flavoured with a seasoning of brown sugar, vanilla and a little cinnamon.
- Vegan waffle patty: The meat substitute product is an eye-catcher on any plate. The patty is based on pea texturate and impresses with its meat-like flavour.
- Cream cheese with waffle flavour: Thanks to a special dry seasoning mix, this innovative product combines the characteristic waffle flavour with creamy cream cheese. The cream cheese preparation is topped with a sour cherry fruit topping, which is produced using Fuchs’ own LiquidControl process. This cream cheese and fruit composition tastes particularly good on bread or waffles.
