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.
