Desserts & Ice cream

Scoop up the best solutions

What could be more indulgent than a delicious dessert? With our extensive portfolio of solutions and expertise you can meet consumer need for delightful, sweet treats while also unlocking the potential for “better product choices” - without sacrificing taste.

Our dessert flavor solutions and ice cream flavor solutions bring appetizing taste, mouthfeel, texture - and aroma – to a wide range of product categories, including: fruit and preserves, powder desserts, ice cream, frozen yogurt, ambient and chilled desserts and plant-based desserts. 

For example, our broad portfolio of key tonalities (red fruits, brown notes like vanilla, caramel & chocolate) and dairy notes offer you infinite possibilities for maximizing taste. But we can also boost the health profile of desserts – not only by reducing sugar, fat and calorie content; but also increasing protein content, including planet-friendly plant proteins. All with no compromise on the great sensory experience! 

Tackling your key challenges in desserts & ice cream

To create great desserts and ice cream you need a partner that understands the trends driving consumer preference; and knows how to deliver the qualities needed to help you create differentiated products.

Clean, uncompromised taste

You need the ability to deliver delicious deserts and ice cream while masking potential off-notes from sugar reduction and plant proteins.

Regional variations

Meeting consumers’ desire for outstanding indulgence across different regions (for example southern Europeans may prefer more sweetness than northern Europeans).

Tackling intolerance

Developing indulgent treats for the growing number of consumers with food allergies: from gluten-to-lactose intolerance.

Affordability

Creating high-quality yet affordable products that stay fresher for longer and deliver an outstanding consumer experience.

Indulgent ice cream

Whatever your product positioning, our flavor solutions for ice cream (liquid and powder) deliver a huge range of taste tonality, including: dairy, brown notes (chocolate, caramel), vanilla, red fruits, peach & apricot, tropical fruits, and chocolate-mint.  

For sugar reduction in ice cream our taste modulation portfolio for dairy products closes the taste gap when improving nutritional profiles or reducing sugar by 30 percent or less.; while our TastePRINT® solution enables you to completely replace sugar – while retaining superior taste. Then you can use ModulaSENSE® and our masking tools to fine tune and further harmonize flavor profiles and rebuild mouthfeel – even in high-protein applications.

Delightful desserts

You can rely on our dessert flavor solutions and expertise to create amazingly indulgent taste and texture in frozen desserts like popsicles, spoonable frozen yogurt cups, ice cream layered cakes, puddings, creamy ice fillings – and more. 

What’s more we’ll help you provide guilt-free indulgence. This includes our comprehensive sugar reduction solutions and naturally intense sweeteners like Stevia or Monkfruit; while for fat reduction, look no further than our holistic dairy solutions that mask off-flavors while boosting aroma and mouthfeel. We can even help you create lactose-free desserts that taste and feel like the real thing.
