SUGAR For our little treats
Sugar is a key ingredient in the making of sweet foods as it delivers sweet taste, as it enhances their taste an the one of other ingredients, while also providing structure and texture balancing our treats’ taste experience.
How we process our sugar.
At Kinder we mostly use sucrose in our recipes, we use both beet and cane sugar.
Both beets and sugar canes are harvested and delivered to our suppliers’ processing factories where their juice rich in sugars is extracted.
This juice is then filtered and heated to remove water so that small crystals are formed and become bigger and more numerous as the product is cooled.
The crystals are then separated from the syrup in a centrifuge, washed and dried to become the sugar we all recognize and use every day.
When the sugar arrives in our factories, we conduct thorough quality tests to verify the size and purity of the crystals before we use them in our recipes.
Sucrose is used in all Kinder recipes. We use also glucose-fructose syrup, in small quantities in Kinder Delice where it helps in making the dough even softer.
