Desserts
For almost 30 years we have established an outstanding reputation in providing the right solution for your
dessert indulgence.
Flans, puddings, mousses ,whips, ice cream or ice lollies, almost half of South Africa's favourite desserts contain
our ingredients to obtain desired sensory properties and stability through shelf-life.
We have braved the challenges of the frozen desserts industry, including today's demands for reduced sugar and fat
formulations. Our solutions include increasing overrun, stable air incorporation, texturising, melting properties
and heat-shock tolerance . We offer application - specific solutions for all desserts. By careful monitoring of
interactions between ingredients we are able to help you produce desserts with texture, shape, shelf life, quality
and price.
