Finding opportunities to boost nutrition For the plant-based sector , we have an opportunity to introduce nutritional benefits consumers wouldn ’ t usually find in traditional products , and which the target audience would welcome . Plant-based ingredients can also contain bioactive materials in higher quantities than animalderived equivalents , such as flavonoids , phenolic acids , and saponins , which emerging science is showing can have anti-inflammatory and other beneficial properties .
Tate & Lyle ’ s nutrition and formulation experts are here to help future-focused brands grasp the opportunity to create new products for a healthier population and a healthy planet .

We ’ ve worked extensively with customers on low-sugar plant-based gummy sweets , using pectin instead of gelatine . Our most successful recipe combines our low-calorie rare sugar allulose with one of our plantbased stevia sweeteners to provide excellent sweetness and flavour release . Incorporating our fibre , we ’ ve been able to offer additional nutrition , enabling consumers to have 50 % of their recommended daily allowance of fibre per 30g serving .
