ColorMaker Makes Natural Color Blends
ColorMaker has developed a line of natural color blends for use in natural food and NOP-compliant bakeries. The natural color blends are light, heat and pH stable in typical bakery applications, such as sweet breads, cupcakes, cookies and muffins. They are completely soluble in sugar-based icings, unlike traditional natural colors that tend to separate or color icings unevenly. The natural color blends produce vibrant yellow, red, orange, blue and green icing colors and can be mixed to produce a range of exciting hues.

TAMI ISOFLUX Solves Pressure Issues
TAMI Industries is now offering the ISOFLUX tubular membrane. Designed within the Inside CéRAM tubular membrane line, the ISOFLUX solves the problem of non-uniform trans-membrane pressure within the membrane. This new membrane is used in sterilization of milk and protein solutions, separation of casein/protein, sugars, gelatin, and extraction from fermentation broth.

The membrane’s thickness decreases from the inlet to the outlet at a rate that is proportional to the fluid pressure along the membrane. The resulting homogeneity of the flow allows for the mastering of the filtration process with an improvement of the extraction performance, and an identical fouling on the membrane’s entire surface that facilitates chemical washing operations. The tubular ISOFLUX membranes are available in one-inch diameter and in three versions with 8 (Daisy), 23 (Sunflower), or 39 (Dahlia) channels.

Organic Turbinado Sugar Now Available in U.S.
Wholesome Sweeteners has introduced the first and only Organic Turbinado Sugar in the U.S. Turbinado Sugar is washed, raw-cane sugar made from 100% organic sugar cane. It is made by crushing the freshly-cut sugar cane to squeeze out the juice—rich in molasses, vitamins and minerals. The cane juice is then evaporated to form a thick syrup, which is spun in a turbine to produce the large, sparkling, golden crystals. Turbinado sugar provides a smooth, mellow and rounded flavor in coffee and iced tea without a harsh, tannic sweetness, and it can be used as a one-to-one replacement for refined white and brown sugars in any recipe.

Wholesome Sweeteners’ Organic Turbinado Sugar is endorsed by Chef Nora Pouillon, owner of Restaurant Nora’s and Asia Nora’s, in Washington, DC, America’s first certified organic restaurants. It is packaged in 24-oz. resealable pouches, and in individual, convenient and ready-to-use packets.
