regular consumption . We at Tate & Lyle are well-placed to support these endeavours , both technically and by providing more sustainably produced ingredients such as our CLARIA ® Clean Label Functional Starches , which we will soon produce with a third less carbon and water than our original product line .”
Working with food and beverage brands , Tate & Lyle can make plant-based a reality , from a baked camembert alternative using its corn-based texturants made in its Customer Innovation and Collaboration Centre in Germany to vegan muffins using chickpea flour in its US lab . Chickpea flour , for instance , is gluten-free and recognisable to consumers while offering many functional benefits when used as an egg replacement such as providing similar muffin volume and peak height . Through extensive research and trials , animal-based proteins , fats and ingredients such as eggs and gelatines can be replaced with Tate & Lyle ’ s plant-based ingredient solutions while providing the same aesthetics and mouthfeel of traditional products .
