WE PREFER IT WITH A CHEESY TOUCH
Cheese is a delectable culinary delight enjoyed worldwide, celebrated by nations, diverse cuisines, and accomplished chefs as an essential element in numerous mouthwatering dishes. From breakfast to dinner, cheese is a culinary companion that enhances the flavor profile of various culinary creations. Its presence is deemed indispensable, even alongside a glass of wine. The art of crafting the perfect cheese has been refined over generations, requiring expertise and the precise selection of ingredients.
PROCESSED CHEESE
Processed cheese, a popular and convenient form of cheese, is crafted through the blending of natural cheese with additional dairy ingredients, emulsifiers, salt, food coloring, and water. This culinary creation undergoes a meticulous production process that involves the use of citrates and phosphate salts, playing a pivotal role in emulsification and cooking. The result is a smooth and homogeneous product with a consistent texture and flavor.

Application & Troubleshooting:
The combination of different emulsifiers can contribute to obtaining various characteristics in cheese, such as:
Our specially crafted product is tailored for various cheese applications, including block cheese, spreadable processed cheese, cheese for sandwiches, burgers, and pizza, as well as cheese analogues.
- Too much Melt
- Hard Chesse
- Firm Shape
- Preventing Crystallisation
- Slice Elasticity
- Low Melt
Our product is designed to enhance the ion exchange properties of block cheese. It imparts a firm shape, delightful taste, and elasticity to the cheese, making it easy to shred and slice. Additionally, it safeguards processed cheese from crystallization, ensuring a natural appearance over time.
In the creation of spreadable processed cheese, our product serves as a crucial raw material, complementing the chosen natural cheese and other ingredients. It contributes to a smooth texture and high creaming, suitable for medium to high-fat content. Our product also plays a role in improving product stability and consistency.
For sliceable processed cheese in sandwiches and burgers, our functional ingredients come into play. These ingredients not only enhance the cheese's re-melting capability, toasting properties, nonstick characteristics in packaging, and color retention but also contribute to overall product stability.
Utilizing 2.5 - 3% of our product in the production process results in pizza cheese or cheese analogues with a perfect melt, favorable stretching profile, and a shiny appearance. The use of our product imparts delayed setting and facilitates easy shredding of the cheese product.
