Indulgent Food: How to Combine Healthiness and Flavor?

03/04/2024

You, who work in the food and beverage industries, certainly know a lot of indulgent foods, but perhaps not by that name. These products bring with them remarkable experiences that awaken the feeling of well-being and good sensory memories.

What few people know, however, is that the consumption of indulgent food has grown in recent years. According to a study conducted by Horus Inteligência de Mercado, 50.7% of the shopping cart of customers who visit the supermarket consists of this type of food and only 34.4% consists of healthy products. Quite a comparison, huh?

Even if they are worried about looking at food labels for options with less sugar, fats, and artificial ingredients, the consumer does not let go of that thought: “I deserve to eat a good chocolate today”, after a stressful day at work or achieving something very important.

And here is another challenge for manufacturers: making indulgent food healthier, without losing the sensory experience and olfactory memory.

How to Include the Nutritional Needs So Sought After by the Public in Indulgent Food?

Balancing types of food that evoke a sense of well-being and bring positive sensory memories with nutritional needs is a constant challenge for many people, especially in a society where processed food and tempting treats are so accessible.

However, it is possible to find a middle ground between satisfying the desires and meeting the needs of the body. An effective way to do this is by incorporating healthy and nutritious ingredients into our food choices.

In this scenario, Frootiva® Co’s inputs, such as fruit powders and dry extracts, are key elements to achieve the desired balance.

Fruit powders offer a natural, sweet taste without the added sugars, allowing people to enjoy a tasty indulgence without compromising health. Moreover, they are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, providing essential nutrients for the body.

Dry extracts, on the other hand, transform stems, roots, flowers, and leaves into a rich powder with different concentrations of nutrients, according to the customer’s needs.

Fibers are added to these solutions, which help maintain satiety and promote healthy digestion, being ideal for adding texture and density to food, making it more satisfying and nutritious.

In addition, fibers play a crucial role in promoting digestive health and regulating blood sugar, preventing glucose spikes, and maintaining stable energy levels throughout the day.
