Ingredia Says Its Clean Label Dairy Proteins Benefit Cheese Snack Makers

May 13, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The French dairy ingredients company (Arras) is convinced that the growing consumer focus on health, naturality, and sustainability is driving innovation in the cheese market, including in the snack segment. Although considered to be an indulgent food product, cheese is perceived by consumers as a healthy snacking option because of its high protein and calcium content. Cheese offers many possibilities for innovation, including in taste, format, texture, and flavor. Ingredia’s clean label dairy proteins provide a way for snack manufacturers to develop healthy and creamy cheese concepts. “Cheese products can help consumers to meet their dietary needs; for instance, by fortifying the recipe with iron, by adding ayurvedic spices or gut-friendly cultures,” an Ingredia representative says.

Freeze-Dried Fruits Offer Plenty Of Benefits To Snack, Baked Goods Makers

May 13, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
Because they meet consumer demands for clean label snacks and baked goods with pleasing taste and texture, freeze-dried fruits are a solid ingredient choice, according to natural ingredients supplier Paradise Fruits by Jahncke. Among the advantages offered by freeze-dried fruits: the free-flowing freeze-dried powders are easy to dose and therefore cost effective; they boost flavors and provide a natural colorant; they are low in moisture and do not impact other ingredients; they have a long shelf life; and they retain most of the nutritional benefits of fresh fruits, including vitamins, minerals and nutrients, and are low in sugar.

Spanish Snackmaker Hits A Home Run With Its Artichoke Chyps

May 13, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
Though based in Murica, Spain, Cynara’s reach is global, and that includes Traverse City, Mich., where Melissa Elms serves as the U.S. sales director. The latest product from Cynara is Artichoke Chyps, which “are flying off virtual store shelves since their introduction in January of this year.” Gluten-free, Non-GMO certified, vegan, plant-based, and low in calories and carbs, Artichoke Chyps are more expensive than potato chips or other salty snacks because artichokes cost more to grow and harvest. Elms says a 1.76-ounce bag retails for between $5.99 and $7.99. They are sold in four- and eight-packs on Amazon and on natural- and organic-food online retailer Thrive Market.

Carbon Score Certification Is Gaining Traction In Food, Beverages

May 13, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
As the persistent pandemic stokes consumer interest in sustainable diets, food and beverage carbon labeling soon may hold more sway with consumers than other popular certifications. Labeling with a carbon score attracts consumers who want to know how much carbon was used in the production of an item: Net zero? 25 percent reduced? “That is the next phase,” says one industry observer. Brands that move quickly to add carbon labeling will appeal to consumers who are gravitating toward products with lower climate impact. Food and beverage companies already using, or exploring carbon labeling, include: Horizon Organic; Post Holdings’ subsidiary Bright Future Foods (Airly Oat Cloud Crackers); Maple Leaf Foods (carbon zero plant-based protein brands); Upfield (Imperial and Country Crock); Quorn Foods; Unilever, Mondelēz International, and Oatly.

Barnana Upcycles Unsellable Brazilian Bananas Into A Profitable Snack

May 13, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
Founded by a former professional triathlete from Brazil who wasn’t happy with the available sport snacks, the San Diego-based snack company makes its products with bananas and plantains that can't be exported internationally to supermarkets because of size or ripeness. Caue Suplicy, 42, launched Barnana in 2012 after a trip to Brazil when he noticed that local banana farmers were tossing up to 20 percent of their stock. The initial upcycles products were sold in airports, at convenience stores, at LinkedIn, Google, and Facebook offices – “all disappeared overnight.” The company’s dehydrated plantain and banana snacks – tortilla chips, plantain chips, banana bites, etc. – are available in a variety of flavors online and at supermarkets across the U.S.

Ancients Grains Provide Marketing Opportunity For Breakfast Cereal Makers

May 6, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
Breakfast cereal companies looking to differentiate their products from a crowded market should look to ancient grains for inspiration. It’s an idea whose time has come, because ancient grains like sorghum, millet, amaranth. and teff have started appearing in ready-to-eat cereal. Other possibilities include buckwheat, which offers texture and gluten-free benefits to pancakes and waffles, and quinoa. A marketing exec at Ardent Mills notes that ancient grains have proven to be “extremely versatile in breakfast applications, both cooked as whole grains or milled into flour.” Ardent’s Don Trouba says quinoa flour, flakes, and blends, for example, are perfect for hot breakfast cereals, granola, multi-grain blends, and toppings on breads, bagels, bars, and crackers.

Severe Nut Allergy Leads To Creation Of Seed-Based Snacks

May 4, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
An acute reaction to eating nuts that landed Nicole Ledoux’s future husband in the ER led her to develop safe-to-eat allergen-free seed bar snacks. The eventual result was the launch of Allston, Mass.-based 88 Acres, which originally marketed a line of snack bars made with pumpkin, sunflower, and flax seeds. They later added dense seed butters – pumpkin, vanilla spice sunflower, and dark chocolate sunflower. The company now has two new lines: Seed' Nola, like granola, but made instead with abundant clusters of seeds and gluten-free oats in flavors such as Triple Berry Blend, Ginger Apple, and Double Chocolate Sea Salt. The products are available at Whole Foods Market locations and at 88acres.com.

Whisps Snacks: A Leader In The New Baked Cheese Snack Category

May 4, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The idea for a 100 percent cheese-based snack crisp took root within the food innovation team at Schuman Cheese, a New York importer of Italian cheeses. And now, according to Forbes magazine, Whisps Snacks are “one of the most popular snacks on grocery shelves and the leader in a new category that they helped create.” The secret to the brand’s success, says CEO Ilana Fischer, is not just the quality cheeses and the fairly simple cooking process – basically baked parmesan or cheddar – but the passionate flavor development and aggressive marketing/distribution program. The keto-friendly, gluten-free, low carb, high-protein snacks are available at most grocery retailers and online in nine flavors. The two-ounce bags come in several variety and multi-pack formats. Four-packs are available on Amazon for about $15.00; discounted subscriptions are also an option.

Kerry: Consumers Looking For New Flavors In “Snackification” Trend

May 4, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The Ireland-based food ingredients specialist says interesting snack flavors are emerging from the “snackification” trend as consumers in North America, Latin America, Europe, and EMEA seek variations and elaborations on basic sweet and savory offerings. Europeans, for example, often seek out Asian favorites wasabi and sriracha, while Americans explore flavors such as Irish cream and Korean BBQ. The pandemic has increased consumer interest in “flavors with a healthy halo association:” ginger, mint, kombucha, hemp, ginseng, reishi, maca, goji berry and basil. Kerry identified five emerging flavor trends: seasonality, enticing eats, taste exploration, novel flavors, and acceptable sweetness, “each a completely separate concept yet intertwined.”

Taking A Cue From Beverages, Botanicals Appear More And More In Snacks

April 29, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The use of botanical extracts in beverages continues to grow, whether in sparkling drinks or bottled water. But botanicals have begun to extend beyond beverages into functional snacks, thanks in part to the growing 'food as medicine' consumer notion, according to TeaSquares (Chicago, Ill.) founder Jordan Buckner. One company, B.T.R. Bars, makes a line of functional bars using ingredients like ashwagandha and other adaptogens. But snack brands at this stage should put less emphasis in their marketing on functional claims, and instead use broad language such as “recharge,” “focus,” and “energize.” Or, they should focus on botanical flavor cues, as bar company Humming Hemp does, highlighting botanical flavors such as lavender, pistachio, and blueberry in its products. But as the category grows, consumer curiosity will grow. Shoppers will wonder, for example, just what exactly are the efficacious doses of botanical ingredients in snacks?

NPD Group: Sadness, Depression Solidly Linked To Snacking Surge

April 28, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The Chicago-based industry researcher’s new report on snacking describes the close relationship between mood and the surge in snacking during the pandemic. The average U.S. consumer ate 37 percent more snack foods and treats while feeling sad or depressed during the pandemic than they did in 2019. Being bored followed closely, increasing snacking by 33 percent. In addition, consumers tended to eat more snack foods and treats when they were cranky, stressed, anxious, calm, and relaxed. Snack food consumption declined when consumers were feeling rushed, happy, good, tired, and just normal or neutral, said NPD, which suggested that the snack food and sweets industries need to keep a keen eye on the mental state of consumers during changing times.

If It’s Regenerative, And Organic, It’s Better For You

April 26, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
Though regenerative agriculture has been around for centuries – think “crop rotation” – the term has now been married to the increasingly popular concept of organic farming, resulting in yet another reason to charge premium prices for some foods. Not to worry, though, because an IBM study found that sixty percent of consumers are willing to change shopping habits to reduce environmental impact. Realizing that, companies with products from booze to sunflower oil to snacks have jumped on the regenerative bandwagon, passing the increased costs on to shoppers. An example in the snack segment is regenerative entrepreneur Emily Griffith, founder of Lil Bucks, a Chicago snack company trying to build a market for regenerative buckwheat with a snack one writer dubbed “granola meets birdseed.” The idea behind it, and other regenerative foods, is: if it’s better for the planet, it’s better for you, even if it costs more.

Anheuser-Busch, Post Holdings Partner To Voyage Into Climate-Friendly Snacks

April 23, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
A collaboration between EverGrain (Anheuser-Busch) and Bright Future Foods (Post Holdings) positions the companies for a push into climate-friendly snacking. Nielsen recently found that nearly half of U.S. consumers are likely to adjust shopping to meet environmental standards, putting their dollars where their values are. Bright Future Foods’ first product launch, Airly Oat Cloud Crackers – touted as the first ever climate-positive snack – is made with oats, which the company says have a negative carbon footprint. EverGrain – created to find uses for the spent grain from AB’s brewery processes – has two product lines that can be used across a range of applications, such as the plant-based barley milk line Take Two. Additional products are slated to hit the market later this year.

New Version Of Nestlé Cereal Contains Fewer Ingredients

April 20, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The new incarnation of Shreddies breakfast cereal – called The Simple One – has only four ingredients, all of whose nutritional credentials are green under the U.K.’s traffic light system. The ingredients are whole grain wheat, fruit purée, date syrup, and “a pinch” of salt. The simple contents make the cereal non-HFSS, so it will not be affected by the government’s coming crackdown on unhealthy food promotions and advertising. The cereal is available at Waitrose, Ocado, Tesco, and Sainsbury’s.

Bruized Turns Imperfect Produce Into Snacks, Other Food Items

April 20, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The Canadian start-up’s dual mission is to reduce food waste while producing healthy snacks and other food items. Monique Chan, who witnessed food waste while working in restaurants and at farmers markets, launched Bruized to inform people about food waste and sell food items made from upcycled, imperfect produce. The top seller is a dehydrated granola made from carrot, beet, and pear juice pulp sourced at a juice bar. The pulp would be thrown away, but it’s still rife with fiber and other nutrients. The “pulp crunch” is sweetened with ripe bananas sourced from a local shop when they start to get spotty. Dehydrated “second grade” apples from a local farm round out the flavors.

According to a U.K. snack category report, the new so-called “disruptor” snack brands "are exploiting profound shifts in consumer attitudes and behavior,” such as growing consumer interest in healthier, more ethical, product ingredients and, more broadly, in snacks that are different from the generic branded items like potato chips.

Insect-Based Snack Maker Crické Rebrands

April 14, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The challenge that London branding agency Midday was given by Crické was two-fold: come up with a new name, market positioning, and identity – and smash an “ancient taboo” about eating insects. The new identity – Small Giants – is still about gourmet crackers made with cricket flour. But the packaging and marketing message are bolder and brighter, featuring “a loud color palette, a bold personality and an orchestra of oversized charming crickets” on the packs. Midday admits the rebrand goes "big on weirdness" and changes "yuck to yum." But the Small Giants team sees itself as powerful changemakers encouraging consumers to think again about insect snack treats.
