NEW!! Natural Juice Cloudifier
Introduction
 | Cloudy emulsions impart
natural appearance, opacity, consistency, and rheological properties
to citrus beverages |
| Cloudy emulsions help to distribute uniformly flavor and color
in beverages |
| Most cloudy emulsions are based on oil phase (D-limonene, vegetable
oils), weighting agents (SAIB, resin gums, ester gums), emulsifiers
(gum Arabic) and additives (colorants, antioxidants). |
Consumer Requests…
| Consumers prefer
"totally natural" products. |
| Consumers are willing to pay an extra premium for sophisticated
natural drinks with cloudy "look". |
| Natural clouding agents from citrus peels are unsatisfactory
due to poor "cloud", instability, bitterness and off-taste,
resulting from the peel constituents. |

"all natural" clouding agent with the following properties:
| Totally natural
