Details of the Innovation Need

The increase in morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases is a true challenge for modern society. The main reason for these tendencies has been proved to be excessive consumption of saturated fats, cholesterol, transisomers.

The content of saturated fatty acids in milk fat reaches 70 %, cholesterol up to 0.2 g/100 g, trans isomers up to 8 %.

Therefore, the main objective is to reduce or eliminate these components from the spread recipe, as well as to select the fat base and flavouring substances.

Product Requirements:

Flavour and odour - pronounced creamy and pasteurized taste, without off-flavours and odours;

Consistency - dense, plastic, homogeneous or insufficiently dense and plastic. The surface cut is shiny and dry in appearance;

Mass fraction of milk fat, % - 0, 5, 10, 15

Mass fraction of fat, % - 72.5

Mass fraction of polyunsaturated fatty acids, % - min. 15

Control method of obtained results:

- prepare and provide the customer with a final report with recipes, characteristics of raw materials, a detailed description of the production process (technological steps, parameters, equipment), cost calculation;

- reproduction of the product by specialists of the R&D Center of GC EFKO will be considered as confirmation of the developed recipe and technology;

- comparability of the sample taste score obtained according to the proposed recipe with conventional butter.
