Toasted wheat bran: a natural choice for fibre enrichment Cruskea from Munari is a clean label extra fine toasted bran that has been pre-processed to overcome the traditional drawbacks known from conventional bran. The result is an excellent fibre source not only well-suited for baked goods but also for a range of other foods
By Emanuela Munari, Sales & Marketing Manager, Munari F.lli SpA. Cruskea is a line of innovative extra fine toasted wheat bran from the Italian company Munari F.lli SpA. that specialises in functional cereal products. Bran is probably one of the best known fibre sources. However, conventional bran can be difficult to incorporate in sufficient quantity in e.g. baked goods as the final product tends to become heavy, compact and non appealing. Further, it usually needs fats and sugar/aromas for improving texture and taste. This can be overcome by Cruskea toasted wheat bran, which has undergone a pre-process resulting in bran that is soft and melts in the mouth.
•
High absorption capability: laW +124% vs. 83% for traditional bran
•
Low fermentability: -13% bowel fermentation gas compared to traditional bran
•
Neutral taste
•
High processability
Nutritional advantages Cruskea toasted wheat bran provides a high stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract and no feeling of abdominal heaviness. Results of clinical tests made by the University of Padua and the Hospital of Arzignano have shown that, when eaten with a variety of foods in the maximum recommended dose of 30g a day for one month and as part of a normal diet, it is effective in the clinical resolution of constipation problems and the normalisation of the discomfort associated with irritable bowel syndrome. The Total Dietary Fibre (TDF) content in Cruskea is 47.50%, of which 93% is insoluble (IDF). With respect to the effectiveness of dietary fibre in the stimulation of the gastro-intestinal tract, insoluble fibres are the most effective.
Properties A special process gives Cruskea toasted wheat bran its unique properties: •
High water retention capability with an RI of 53.5% versus -3.06 % for traditional bran
3
Advantages for the food industry Bran is a natural fibre source that is well known by most consumers. Thanks to the special pre-processing, Cruskea can offer the following advantages to the food industry: • •
High rate of inclusion is possible: 4-60% Close texture after baking
•
Reduces viscosity of dough
•
Reduces stickiness of dough
•
Increases crispiness but keeps resistance > less fat required
•
Gives baking stability – no spreading, no shrinking in the oven
•
Gives stability to after-baking characteristics and shape
•
Reinforces ground nuts/almonds taste and performances when required, resulting in potential costs and calories cut-down
•
Gives baked goods a good colour (continues on page 4) >>

New caramels from Sethness-Roquette Sethness-Roquette has inaugurated its new fully automated production equipment with production of a new range of E150a caramels and aromatic caramels By Franck Bollengier, Sales Manager, Sethness-Roquette SETHNESS-ROQUETTE, the European caramel colour leader, is diversifying its range by putting a new range of caramels of the E150a type and aromatic caramels on the market. To this end, new fully automated production equipment has just been installed in the ultra-modern factory located in Merville (Northern France). This industrial facility, the biggest on its market in Europe, is supplied in a direct line with carbohydrate sources by the neighbouring Roquette factory, a global specialist in the production of products derived from starch. These new ranges of caramels will make it possible to offer competitive products on the market, perfectly tailored to the increasingly specialised needs of customers who are ever more demanding in terms of quality and service.
What is E150a caramel colour? How is it made? Definition: E150a caramel colour (‘class I’) is obtained by controlled heat treatment of carbohydrates. In order to promote caramelization, acids, bases and salts can be used, with the exception of ammonium compounds and sulphites (CASE No: 8028-89-5 / EINECS: 232-435-9).
During the caramelization process, the product reaches a temperature of over 160°C and becomes pasty before, at the end of the process and after cooling, becoming a highly fluid product and attaining the desired technical properties (colour, specific gravity, pH, viscosity etc.). Applications and labelling The applications and examples of uses of E150a caramel colour are diverse and varied. Its neutral to slightly negative ionic charge makes it perfectly stable in the following products, to name just a few: • • •
Alcohols and spirits Confectionery Ice cream
In the labelling of the finished product, E150a caramel colour should appear on the list of ingredients as colouring: E150a or colouring: plain caramel
What is aromatic caramel? How is it made? Definition: Liquid or solid with a pale, dark brown colour, obtained exclusively through the controlled action of heat on food sugars. The main use of aromatic caramel is the flavouring of foodstuffs. Low quantities of or-
Contrary to the other caramel colours E150b, E150c or E150d, caramel colour E150a is not produced using ammonium or sulphite ions. However, in order to offset the absence of the caramelization promoters - ammonium compounds and sulphites - it is necessary to increase the heat exchange. This has thus led to the development by SETHNESS-ROQUETTE of reactors specifically designed at the heating and agitation level to intensify and fully master the delicate process of sugar caramelization.

New: caramel guide To help you find the caramel best suited for you application, Sethness-Roquette has made a caramel application guide. Please contact Alsiano for more information.
ganic acids can be added during the manufacturing process in order to promote the hydrolysis of the sugars. The natural acidity of the caramel may be neutralised after caramelisation (Standard NF V00-100). The presentation and the name of caramel may refer to the original raw material if it constitutes the only carbohydrate used. Produced according to processes similar to those of the E150a caramels, the sugar caramelization process for aromatic caramel cannot be done in the presence of bases. However, small quantities of organic acids can be used such as citric acid, in the same way as housewives or confectioners add a touch of lemon juice to their caramels so that they remain liquid and in order to activate the browning process.
