12 Jan 2022 --- Cargill is targeting Europe’s growing flexitarian appetite with a new range of vegan chocolate and couverture chocolates. Chocolate ExtraVeganZa is positioned to deliver a “truly indulgent sensorial experience,” using the plant-based “power ingredients” sunflower kernel powder, rice syrup and organic rice syrup. “Sunflower kernel powder is a sensorial winner. It brings a delightful creaminess and smooth melt-in-mouth experience to chocolate recipes – something that is hard to achieve with the ingredients commonly used in vegan chocolates,” Vanessa Barey, chocolate product developer at Cargill, tells FoodIngredientsFirst.
