Additive: improving pastries - eggs saver
Following the increase of the price of eggs and its higher volatility these last years because of evolution in regulatory requirements, Flamel Aromatic has developed a new enhancer able to divide by 3 the quantity of eggs in the pastries such as cakes, muffins or magdalenas.
With only 6% eggs in the recipe, this enhancer for pastries generates a soft cake with similar shape and aspect to a cake containing 15 to 20% of eggs.
This powder is associated with a recipe very easy to implement and whose ingredients are available in all the countries at very competitive prices.
This recipe guarantees a life expectancy of the cakes of one year. Thanks of combined action of the glycerin and the enhancer water activity is always below 0.72, what prevents development of yeasts and molds, without adding preservative.

Recipes & additive: Versatile, stable and economic sauces
Flamel Aromatic SA has developed a range of recipes of sauces such as mayonnaise, ketchup style and other flavoured sauces that do not need any storage at low temperature.
They can be suitable for countries with hot weather where the household appliances are not present in each home.
The sauces concept proposed by the company Flamel Aromatic SA has the following main features :
-
Versatile Recipe : you need to change 1 to 3 ingredients to get a sauce with a totally different taste but with the same base.
-
Resistant and stable to heat : sauces stay stable in texture and taste even though they are stored outside the fridgeduring months.
-
Economic Recipe : the recipe is mainly composed of ingredients that we find easily locally at competitive prices.
Here is an indicative range of sauces possible from the concept of sauces devloped by Flamel Aromatic :
-
Mayonnaise : different tastes and colors possible like Lesieur, Calvé,...
-
Ketchup (similar to the most famous ones)
-
Seasonings based sauces: aromatic herbs, garlic, onion…
-
Spiced sauces (andalouse, samouraï,...)
The production is very easy:
-
A simple mixer-cutter with knives rather equipped with a vaccum pump. The working capacity can vary from 20 to 300 kg depending on the local market.
-
A scale for the production and another one for the packaging.
-
To test the market, we advise to test the packaging by buckets to restaurants like fast foods or to grocery stores.
The start investment is low. In a second time, if the market grows, it would be possible to invest in a packaging machine that can fill glass and PET bottles.
