Prototypes Highlight ADM’s portfolio

A line of transparent isolate soy protein, Clarisoy 100 and its extension Clarisoy 150, is in the spotlight at Archer Daniels Midland (booth 2020). (See the earlier article in IFT Live for full details.) A prototype showcases Clarisoy 100 in a Fruit & Veggie Jive beverage.  A great tasting drink, it packs a protein punch and includes one serving of fruit and one serving of vegetables.

In addition to this beverage, ADM is demonstrating a number of other food prototypes made with ingredients from its extensive portfolio.

For example, one of the prototypes highlighted is a “chocolaty” peanut spread on 100% whole-wheat graham crackers. This savory snack features a wholesome cracker formulated with ADM’s white whole-wheat flour, graham flour, mid-oleic vegetable oil, Sweet N’ Neat® honey powder, and Prolite® wheat protein isolate. The cracker is topped with a sweet spread that includes cocoa, crystalline fructose, high oleic-soy/palm oil blend, and lecithin.

A Cranberry Crisp is a healthful and tasty nutrition bar that includes a combination of ADM ingredients, including sorghum crisps, edible bean crisps, soy protein crisps, lecithin, isoflavones, phytosterols, Fibersol® LQ, and corn syrup. Fibersol LQ, the result of a joint venture between ADM and Matsutani, is a soluble corn fiber that has been specially designed for applications where added sweetness and humectancy are beneficial, as well as for the ease of handling of a liquid product. The ingredient contains 75% soluble dietary fiber on a dry solids basis.

Chocolate ice cream is made with deZaan cocoa powders and then covered in a chocolate coating that features ADM cocoa liquor and cocoa butter. This dessert is a sweet ending to any meal.

Crispy chips feature a surprising ADM ingredient—navy beans. The formulation, Eat Your Vegetables Chips, is produced by Snikkidy Inc. and includes half a serving of vegetables per half-ounce bag.

Attendees will be able to sample all these prototypes and see for themselves the functionality and nutritional benefits that these ingredients offer.
