Bridge the (fiber) gap

Consumers are focusing more on healthy eating habits, but they’re still not getting enough fiber on average. This is what’s popularly known as The Fiber Gap. With Novonesis biosolutions, bake high-fiber bread with ample volume, a moister crumb and the ability to stay soft and fresh for longer.

Consumers value fiber

Consumers are more nutrition-conscious than ever, with 63% aiming to boost fiber and protein intake1. For bread, top health benefits include improved digestion (52%) and longer-lasting fullness (43%)2—both tied to fiber. Fiber’s growing importance makes it a key focus for delivering the healthier, nutrient-rich bread consumers demand.

Which high-fiber bread would you choose?

The sensory experience is crucial when it comes to high-sensory foods like bread. So even though health is a key purchasing criterion, consumers are not willing to compromise on sensory quality. We’ve tested Valena® Fiber EE G and found that with this enzymatic solution, high-fiber bread can achieve higher volume, more moistness and stay fresh and appealing for longer. The results speak for themselves.
