Caramel is more than a flavour: finding the right texture for your application

Caramel can be soft and chewy, crisp and brittle, or light and aerated. For an R&D team, the choice goes beyond flavour. The inclusion has to deliver the intended bite after processing and continue to perform throughout the finished product’s shelf life. OV’s range spans fudge and soft caramel pieces, hard caramel, toffee, butterscotch, honeycomb, caramelised nuts and coated inclusions. Each brings a different combination of flavour, texture and functionality to bakery, chocolate, ice cream and confectionery.

Get to Know OV: Turning Trends Into Opportunities

Our customers usually do not need us to tell them that something is trending. They are watching their markets too. What we can bring is a wider view of what is happening, help connect the dots and translate those movements into something relevant within the world of sweet ingredients. Because spotting a trend is one thing. Understanding what you could do with it is much more interesting. As part of our Get to Know OV series, we are looking at how market insight, Marketing, New Product Development and our specialist expertise come together to turn what is happening around us into ideas that can inspire our customers.
