Bridge the (fiber) gap

Consumers are focusing more on healthy eating habits, but they’re still not getting enough fiber on average. This is what’s popularly known as The Fiber Gap. With Novonesis biosolutions, bake high-fiber bread with ample volume, a moister crumb and the ability to stay soft and fresh for longer.

Consumers value fiber

Consumers want healthier bread with high nutritional content. And when evaluating whether a bread is healthy or not, roughly 38% look to the ingredient list and/or the nutritional content on the packaging. But according to our study, 24% of consumers evaluate a bread’s healthiness based on the fiber content. It’s even more important than desired benefits like minerals, vitamins and protein, and undesired components like fat and sugar.

Which high-fiber bread would you choose?

The sensory experience is crucial when it comes to high-sensory foods like bread. So even though health is a key purchasing criterion, consumers are not willing to compromise on sensory quality. We’ve tested Valena® Fiber EE G and found that with this enzymatic solution, high-fiber bread can achieve higher volume, more moistness and stay fresh and appealing for longer. The results speak for themselves.
