Our high-quality quinoa ingredients, especially our versatile toasted quinoa flour, are perfect for enhancing bakery and confectionery products.

Highlights

Gluten-free alternative

Our toasted quinoa flour is an ideal gluten-free alternative for both traditional and innovative recipes. It adds a light, nutty flavor to breads, cakes and cookies while boosting their nutritional value with protein, fiber, and essential amino acids. This makes it a versatile choice for creating flavorful, nutritious baked goods that cater to both gluten-free diets and health-conscious consumers.

Sensory

Adding texture

Our quinoa crisps, puffs and flakes are the perfect addition if you are looking for an added texture or crunch. Each ingredient provides distinct textures, making them versatile for different applications in baking and confectionery:
  • Quinoa Crisps have a crispy and crunchy texture, ideal for adding a bold crunch to granola, bars, chocolate treats, or as a topping for baked goods.
  • Quinoa Puffs are light and airy with a delicate crispness, perfect for giving a subtle crunch to softer products like muffins, chocolates, or snack bars without overpowering their texture.
  • Quinoa Flakes are soft and tender, with a slight chewiness, making them great for incorporating into cookies, breads, or as a base for cereals, providing texture without being too hard or crunchy.
Each offers a unique texture profile to suit a variety of recipes.

Quinoa

Adding diversity

Incorporating quinoa into bakery and confectionery products is a great way to diversify ingredients. Quinoa is a nutrient-dense ancient grain that adds both nutritional benefits (such as a high fibre content and high protein quality) and unique flavor to a wide range of products.
Quinoa works especially well in multi-grain products like multigrain bread, where it complements other grains and seeds. Whether using quinoa flour, flakes, or puffs, it can help create innovative, nutrient-packed products that stand out on the shelf while offering consumers a delicious way to enjoy greater variety in their diet.
