Where it works

Four high-volume categories

What lecithin does in each process, in plain terms. Formulation guidance comes with your sample.

Chocolate & Confectionery

Chocolate & Confectionery

Lecithin lowers the viscosity of chocolate mass so it flows, moulds and enrobes evenly — with less cocoa butter needed to reach the same flow.

  • Lower viscosity for moulding and enrobing
  • Helps reduce cocoa butter usage
  • Soy-free label for clean-label and premium bars

Typical format: Liquid

Commercial Bakery & Bread

Commercial Bakery & Bread

Spreads fat evenly through dough, making it easier to handle on the line and giving a softer crumb that stays fresh longer.

  • Better dough machinability
  • Softer, more even crumb
  • Slows staling for longer shelf life

Typical format: Liquid or powder

Instant Mixes & Protein Powders

Instant Mixes & Protein Powders

Deoiled powder coats particles so they wet and disperse straight away in cold water or milk — no clumps, no floating powder.

  • Fast wetting in cold liquids
  • No clumping in shakes or cocoa mixes
  • Free-flowing, easy to dose

Typical format: Deoiled powder

Sunflower lecithin for instant mixes & powders
Sauces, Dressings & Margarines

Sauces, Dressings & Margarines

Supports oil and water mixing so dressings, sauces and spreads stay consistent from the first batch to the end of shelf life.

  • Supports oil and water stability
  • Smooth, consistent texture
  • An even fat-water structure in spreads

Typical format: Liquid
