The agreement spans all countries in Europe.
Baking powders
Gary Abraham, commercial manager, Univar Food Ingredients, EMEA, said Kudos Blends is a developer and producer of baking powders, specialising in potassium-based, sodium-free alternatives for an extensive variety of food applications.
“Kudos’ ingredients allow our customers to achieve appropriate rise and finish in the process of baking doughnuts, crumpets, cakes and more,” he said.
“Its portfolio, offered exclusively by Univar, contains a variety of single- and double-acting baking powders that vary in speed of release for the precise desired effect during the baking process.
“In addition, many of the ingredients are potassium-based, thereby reducing sodium in our customers’ end products, which is an important consumer-driven trend in the European market.”
