6 reasons you should be using Nutricorn

If you’re looking for a nut substitute that is 100% nut free but will also give your products that all-important authentic nutty taste, Nutricorn is your answer.

The benefits don’t stop there! We’ve put together 6 of the top reasons you should be using Nutricorn. Let’s explore them further:

1) Nut Substitute – Nut Free!

The main reason to use Nutricorn? It is completely nut free which makes it the perfect nut substitute for any product.

Nutricorn has been designed and tested to ensure that it is incredibly easy to use and, with the ability to be added to dough (between 5% and 10%) without changing its behaviour, this premium ingredient is certain to provide outstanding results every time.

2) Healthy and Natural

When compared with peanuts, hazelnuts, and almonds, you can see that Nutricorn offers a healthy and natural alternative. With a lower fat content and a higher amount of dietary fibre than the other nut options, this innovative ingredient provides many more benefits than just being nut free.

3) Cost Saving

As the price of nuts continue to fluctuate significantly, and the expense of hazelnuts and almonds, in particular, continue to rise, more affordable alternatives are becoming highly appealing.

Nutricorn is an ingredient that can lower recipe costs as a total or partial substitution and therefore enable a “nut-free” claim to be included, saving you money without affecting the quality of your products.

4) Toasted and Authentic Taste

We know how important it is that, despite being nut free, nut substitute ingredients still have that all important ‘nutty’ taste. You can rest assured that on top of all the added benefits that Nutricorn offers, this toasted and granulated maize germ has an authentic taste that is likened to that of hazelnut.

5) Non-GMO and Allergen Free

More and more consumers are demanding non-GMO foods as they become more aware of the risks of foods containing GMO ingredients. Nutricorn is a Granulated Maize Germ toasted via a specific clean label process and is completely non-GMO. Not only this, but it’s entirely allergen free making it ideal for your free from recipes.

6) Variety of Applications

With its “hazelnut” taste and its specific grain size, Nutricorn is the ideal ingredient to replace nuts in numerous applications, including:

• Bread Products
• Brioche
• Cookies
• Danish Pastries
• Snack Bars

What’s more, thanks to the low-fat content, Nutricorn are more suited to industrial processes than other nuts as there is no clumping or sticking on production lines. This helps make your products more balanced.
