The right choice of formulation is essential for optimising the fermentation process and helping the dough to withstand the various mechanical stresses and create an appealing final product.
Lesaffre has thorough control over all its active ingredients (enzymes, emulsifiers and oxidants), whether pure, diluted or in formulations. They must be of the highest quality and ideal dosage strength to avoid any negative impact on dough (sticky or elastic texture). They must also be perfectly suited to the flour and baking process, while offering maximum performance and safety.
A tailored blend of reducing agents, oxidants, enzymes and emulsifiers; bread improvers optimise the functional characteristics of bread by significantly changing the way dough acts at each stage of the bread-making process.
Our improvers are developed and tested in actual conditions and everyday usage. Flour quality, manufacturing processes, the equipment used, regulatory requirements and the type of final product are all considered. Our experts are experienced technical bakers and formulators who understand dough structure, flour characteristics, and the production challenges facing bakers every day
