Ingredients Development

The food manufacturing business is constantly evolving, and to be a part of it as an ingredient provider, you must be as well. However, it is advisable first to comprehend the full potential of your component to uncover new prospects, applications, or markets. This is when Guires’ knowledge of ingredients comes in handy. Our experts assist in developing ingredients for food and beverage manufacturers.  

We are conversant in a wide range of ingredients, including:

• Functional ingredients that confer nutritional and therapeutic benefits,
• Proteins from various sources, like peas, soy and oat proteins, that can be used in various preparations, from vegan preparations to protein supplements, 
• Stabilisers and hydrocolloids that offer functionality. Stabilisers and hydrocolloids are particularly useful when replacing ingredients like sugar and eggs is needed,
• High–potency Sweeteners, like pure monk fruit extract and stevia that are low in calories, to meet the consumers’ requirements for sugar free products, 
• Fats and fat replacers – Fat replacers are helpful for developing products with lower fat content and have similar functionality as fats, like emulsification.
• Carbohydrates– We specialise in developing low-carb,  low Glycaemic Index (GI) and low-calorie carbohydrates for health-conscious individuals.  
• Flavours– Our team helps formulate flavours from natural ingredients (e.g. mango flavour, orange flavour, mint flavour, pineapple flavour) and helps develop them economically. These flavours can be used to formulate cosmetics (like flavoured lipstick) food (like confectioneries), beverages (like flavoured mineral water), to name a few.  
• Fibres– We use innovative sources of fibre, like orange fibre, that is gaining popularity, especially in cereal products.
