Zentis Polska unveils new ingredient for yogurts
Zentis Polska has developed a new ingredient for drinkable yogurts with coffee, cream, cardamom and chilli – as well as its Pop & Joy line of juicy popping boba.
The product was introduced in May and follows several months of research and development to create the new functional preparation for drinkable yogurts, with functional properties and original taste characteristics. It contains coffee, cream, cardamom, chilli and Pop & Joy.
Coffee and cream give the yogurt a “gourmet” taste, while other ingredients provide original spice notes, which, in combination with coffee, deliver a unique taste and aroma. Cardamom is one of the oldest and most expensive spices in the world with many health-supporting properties, such as helping to fight against obesity, remove toxins from the urinary tract and alleviate the symptoms of colds.
In turn, capsaicin contained in chilli stimulates appetite and gastric juice secretion, facilitating digestion and further supporting the cardiovascular system – as well as increasing resistance to colds. The capsaicin gives a spicy taste to the yogurt.
Pop & Joy are jelly balls with a juicy liquid centre. The innovation was the winner in the best beverage ingredient category at the World Beverage Innovation Awards 2015 for its chili-flavoured boba with plant-sourced proteins.
Pop & Joy gives the yogurt an appearance that is attractive to the consumer, Zentis Polska said, and offers a multisensory experience.
“The health-promoting nature of the preparation with coffee extract and mix Pop & Joy also draws attention.”
