Cultured foods
Providing the best taste and texture for cultured foods.
The global cultured foods market is one of the fastest growing dairy segments and Fonterra is a world leader in dairy innovation. Through in-depth understanding of fundamental dairy science and the yoghurt system, Fonterra is able to optimise its dairy ingredients to deliver superior texture and taste. Our success is centred on a collaborative working model, using our regional development centres, which ensures we achieve the right solution for your brands.
Fonterra’s ingredients are centred on 5 key trends:
Better for you: Less fat, less sugar in regular products.
In response to this trend, Fonterra has developed a range of better for you ingredients that deliver yoghurts with similar taste and texture, with less fat and/or sugar.
More natural: Fewer additives, e.g. artificial colour and flavour, gelatine, stabilisers
To assist manufacturing in the removal of artificial ingredients, Fonterra has developed a range of more natural ingredients.
Premiumisation: Rich, indulgent products for new eating occasions
To improve existing products or create new ones, Fonterra has a new range of indulgent ingredients. These provide rich, superior taste and texture.
Health and wellness: Consumers looking to food for health solutions as opposed to medicine
This involves products for weight management eg: a range of light and creamy ingredients to deliver creamy texture to low fat yoghurt, and a range of protein ingredients for high protein propositions.
Watching the wallet: Price pressure on core yoghurts with little differentiation
Fonterra has developed a range of ingredients to improve productivity.
