Tate & Lyle Showcases Bayou-Inspired Solutions at the IFT Food Expo
DECATUR, Ill. (June 2, 2011) – At the IFT Annual Meeting and Food Expo, Tate & Lyle will showcase its Bayou-inspired, consumer-appealing food and beverage solutions. The Expo takes place June 11-14 in New Orleans, LA.
At this year’s New Orleans-based meeting and expo, Tate & Lyle is transforming traditional Southern-style snacks, desserts and beverages into healthier options that feature boosts in fiber and reductions in sugar and calories, all while maintaining the great taste and texture that consumers expect. The company will demonstrate how processors can achieve this while saving manufacturing costs.
“We have a keen understanding of what U.S. consumers desire and we know that healthy, indulgent products top their lists,” said Jim Miller, Vice President, Sales, Tate & Lyle. “That’s why we re-invented a range of snacks, desserts and beverages to illustrate how the most indulgent products can deliver significant reductions in sugars and calories and continue to taste great.”
