When it comes to bread, two of the most important consumer criteria are texture and shelf life. Through our extensive sensory research, at Puratos we have developed genuine expertise in texture.

Puratos Soft’r improvers are designed for packaged breads. They contain the newest enzyme and emulsifier technologies, providing wonderful product texture for entire shelf life duration. In addition, modular ingredients help to improve texture properties and achieve recipe cost reduction.

Puraslim is a range of bread improvers and mixes that allows you to bake rich breads with fantastic taste, texture and freshness. At the same, Puraslim improvers help to reduce total fat, saturated fat and caloric content, meaning your applications will not only taste great but offer genuine nutritional balance.
With Puraslim, bakers can increase profitability by reducing their reliance on expensive ingredients, such as fats, and adding more water.
This leads to a significant reduction in total recipe costs. For example, with Puraslim improvers and mixes, the recipe cost of brioche bread can be reduced by up to 15% compared to a standard recipe, with no discernible difference in product qualities or characteristics.
