Cargill Builds on Functional Drinks Exhibition

MINNEAPOLIS—Cargill will continue its conference tour at the IFT Annual Conference and Food Expo this summer, following its participation in the Product Innovation in Functional Drinks conference in April in London, where it discussed functional beverage technology and the value of ingredient branding in communicating health benefits to consumers.

At IFT 2006, Cargill will demonstrate how it translates market trends and consumer needs into product concepts; showcase branded ingredients including Oliggo-Fiber™ Inulin, Prolisse™ Soy Protein Isolates and TransEND™ 390 Zero Trans Solid Shortening; and exhibit new prototypes in the baking, beverage, snack, cereal and dairy categories, including reduced-calorie yellow cupcakes with no sugar added, a cranberry pomegranate juice-based smoothie and ice cream featuring the expertise of the Degussa Food Ingredients business, which Cargill recently acquired.
