BAKELS launches new bread improver

Bakery ingredients company BAKELS has launched Quantum, a new generation of bread improvers developed at the UK company’s research laboratories in Australia.

Quantum helps produce doughs which are easy to handle and process – giving the consumer a far softer crumb and the baker a much improved yield.

Bakels has been to the forefront of bread improver development for more than 50 years, being the first company to introduce data esters in 1958 and the first to develop branded liquid improvers in 1998.

Pauline Ferrol, national sales manager, said: “Bakels has a track record of new product development in this sector which is second to none. Quantum will help us maintain our technological edge over our rivals.”
