In traditional bakery recipes, browning and shine are usually achieved by brushing eggs onto the surface of products just before baking. However, this technique is not suitable in case of egg intolerances.
Also, it does not meet the demand of the growing number of consumers who do not wish to consume foods of animal origin.
Faramix FV-106 is a part of the FARA line, a brand of functional systems formulated by Faravelli's Food Application Laboratory. It is a versatile polishing agent for baked goods, that is based on modified starch and that is vegan, as is formulated without eggs. It can be applied to sweet and salted bakery goods - bread, rolls, croissants, breadsticks and more - as it does not affect the taste of the finished product.
Faramix FV-106 is also an excellent natural adhesive to stick decorations like seeds, grains or coconut flakes. It can be used, diluted, directly on the surface of products and is also suitable as a preparatory treatment for filling and freezing processes.
Based on hydrocolloids, FARA Functional Systems are suitable for any type of application where water is present in the finished product. They help to precisely define the structure and consistency of the food item, helping to optimise its organoleptic qualities and stabilise its characteristics during shelf life.
FARA Functional Systems are the ideal allies for professionals who strive for excellent results in every respect.
