ACI Group has unveiled an exciting addition to its vast portfolio of additives for the baking industry as it announces the launch of the Synevo GR1 Gluten Replacer.

The launch comes as the gluten-free category continues to experience remarkable growth, driven by increasing consumer awareness of gastrointestinal health. Synevo uses a specialised hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) blend that mimics the properties of gluten, meaning it can be incorporated into existing recipes with no reformulation required.

“We know many of our baking industry customers are looking to upgrade their gluten-free options,” said Trish Fellowes, Food Sales Manager at ACI Group. “We’re delighted to unveil Synevo as a solution that delivers enhanced product quality for many gluten-free bakery applications, from sliced loaves to cakes, cookies, pasta, and more.

“The exclusive HPMC formula eliminates the need to stock multiple HPMCs, and offers improved process stability, encourages a resilient crumb, and eliminates the irregular crumb holes that are a hallmark of many gluten alternatives,” continued Fellowes. “We’re always looking for innovations that can level up our offer to our customers, and we’re excited to introduce our baking industry partners to the limitless possibilities unlocked by Synevo.”

The launch of Synevo adds to ACI’s remarkable portfolio of food ingredients and additives, which already includes added fibre solutions, plant-based proteins, functional ingredients, and more.

“At a time when supply chains around the world are volatile and margins are being squeezed, the addition of Synevo GR1 to our portfolio means we’re in a stronger position than ever to support the baking industry with our expertise and leading suite of innovations,” concluded Fellowes.
