Lecithin for Bakery | Bunge Loders Croklaan

Lecithin for Bakery

Our lecithins for bakery products deliver several processing properties ranging from dough improvement to easy demolding. They also enhance the softness of bread.

 
Our lectihins brings it all together

In bakery products lecithins are commonly used to ensure even mixing of the batter, decreasing stickiness of the dough and reducing fat content. They facilitate moisture retention in the final product and improve taste and freshness. In addition, higher volume yield, finer pores and better crusts can be achieved with lecithins in bread and bread rolls.

When lecithin is added as an emulsifier in margarines, it helps to avoid spattering of hot fat and scorching of milk casein when food is pan fried. The composition of the lecithin can be adjusted to suit the requirements of the margarine and its application.
