Our client, a global food and beverage manufacturer, is looking to develop a beverage product from which all the sweetness is derived from ingredients or materials that are naturally sweet. This will overcome the need to declare sugar or ‘sweetener’ on pack and position the product as having ‘sweetness from nature’.
Sweetness from Nature
The brief requires natural, sweet materials. Therefore, any ingredients or solutions submitted must be:
- naturally sweet.
- soluble in water (hot or cold).
- considered natural and has undergone minimal processing. Physical processes such as dehydration and granulation are permitted.
Any ingredient or technology submitted must be approved for use in food and drink applications.
Traditional, emerging and existing ingredients technologies will all be considered. All stages of technology readiness are also of interest; from early stage research and development to commercially available solutions.
