 | | GOLDEN PEANUT EXTENDS ORGANIC RANGE | | | International Food Ingredients | | 31/07/2008 | | | Golden Peanut Co has launched two new organic peanut flours and an organic roasted aromatic peanut oil. Catering for global demand for organic nutritional products, Golden Peanut Co’s new ingredients offer food manufacturers the taste profile, functional benefits and nutritional appeal of peanuts, and enable premium positioning.
The company is offering medium roast and dark roast organic peanut flours at 28% fat and 12% fat, respectively. Both flours add nutritional and functional value to confectionery, nutrition bars, seasoning blends, reduced fat peanut butters and sauces. Peanut flour is an excellent source of protein, with a content ranging between 40% and 50%, depending on the fat level.
Golden Peanut’s organic roasted aromatic peanut oil is full of flavour and can be used as a base for peanut flavour systems and salad/cooking oil and can be added directly to a wide range of products and meals to boost the peanut flavour of the food.
Both product lines are Organic Crop Improvement Association International (OCIA) certified and Kosher OU.
Louise McKerchar, European marketing director, American Peanut Council, comments: “The availability of organic ingredients made from high quality, great tasting American peanuts will allow our customers to produce innovative products that will command consumer appeal. A great source of protein, many manufacturers are using peanut flour in nutritional bars and beverages for the lucrative sports nutrition market.
In addition, the outstanding flavour of American aromatic peanut oil can enhance the enjoyment of healthy foods, catering for the increasing demands for health and taste.”
