CRANBURY, NJ. — Innophos has developed a specialty blend of emulsifier salts that provide consistent textural and melt characteristics to mimic traditional processed cheese, according to the company. The blend also helps ensure a moist final product and helps manufacturers improve the texture of upcycled cheese, the company said.
“With our deep understanding of how to optimize the physical, chemical, and sensorial properties of cheese, Innophos is uniquely positioned to help manufacturers develop upcycled cheese that is both delicious and authentic to traditional processed cheese,” said Amr Shaheed, technical service manager, Innophos. “We have developed a new solution that results in less than a 10% difference in meltability between an upcycled and a traditional processed cheese. Our knowledgeable team is dedicated to creating science-backed solutions that help our customers deliver the highest quality products to their consumers.”
